Complete testicular feminization is rarely discovered during childhood, unless a mass is felt in the abdomen or groin that turns out to be a testicle when it is explored surgically. Most with this condition are not diagnosed until they fail to menstruate or they try to become pregnant and find that they are infertile.

For feminization to occur in a genetic male, there must be an increase in estrogens and a decrease in testosterone. Most hormone therapies for the feminization of genetic men include both estrogens as well as some anti-androgenic drugs such as spironolactone, aldactone, finasteride and dutasteride.
