Feminization (biology)
Development of female characteristics / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In biology and medicine, feminization is the development in an organism of physical characteristics that are usually unique to the females of the species. This may represent a normal developmental process, contributing to sexual differentiation. Feminization can also be induced by environmental factors, and this phenomenon has been observed in several animal species.[1][2] In the case of transgender hormone therapy, it is intentionally induced artificially.
