* '''MIH''' from '''Sertoli cells''' and '''Androgens''' from '''Leydig cells''' prevent spontaneous development of female internal genetalia.
* '''MIH''' from '''Sertoli cells''' and '''Androgens''' from '''Leydig cells''' prevent spontaneous development of female internal genetalia.
* '''Androgens''' actively maintain '''Wolffian ducts''', which give rise to male internal genetalia:
* '''Androgens''' actively maintain '''Wolffian Ducts''', which give rise to male internal genetalia:
** Epididymis
** Epididymis
** Vas Deferens
** Vas Deferens
** Vesicular Glands/ Seminal Vesicles
** Vesicular Glands/ Seminal Vesicles
* '''MIH''' causes Mullarian ducts to regress
* '''MIH''' causes Mullarian Ducts to regress
'''FEMALE'''
* Wolffian Ducts spontaneously regress in absence of Androgens.
* '''Mullarian Ducts''' persist to give rise to female internal genetalia:
** Oviducts
** Uterus
** Cervix
** Cranial Vagina
* Normal Ovarian activity is NOT essential for the development of normal female internal genetalia.
