How could we create a fully fertile hermaphroditic human being? What are the biggest challenges, and how could we overcome them?

>> No.10736121

The male and female sex organs essentially correspond to each other, ovaries are developed from the same source as testicles, the penis is the clitoris. Would the hermaphrodite you're imagining have both sets? That would require the person have a duplicate of the entire system when an embryo.

Problem:
God is deeply offended by that idea
Solution:
Ignore him just like how we ignored him when we invented dirty bombs

I think in a similar vein, you’d need to find a way to find a hormonal balance that is conducive to reproduction form both tested and ovaries.

This is a rumor from before the internet. The only evidence of this is her first name is Jamie and her children are adopted.

Low probability of having duplicate sexual organs and i'm unsure how you'd induce it perhaps there might be something in mengele's notes?

Get a male embryo, clone a female copy of him by swapping out the Y for another copy of his X. At maturity kill one and graft/transplant the relevant organs into the other.
