I expect hormones-at-birth have effects on medical care as do hormones-at-present, and I’d bet anything transgender people (or anyone that has a difference between hormones-at-birth and hormones-at-present, including cis menopausal women for example) have adverse medical outcomes due to that confusion.
No need to be insulting towards them, especially when they weren’t insulting you.
Also, you’re technically wrong. There definitely are hormones flying about your body even before you’re born. All fetuses start as female, and its literally testosterone that causes differentiates towards male (or intersex in some cases).
The only reason you don’t start puberty as an infant is because those levels normally diminish within the first year after birth, returning again just before puberty begins.

Sex chromosomes at birth, then?
Are you being pedantic and adding ad hominem just to pick a fight?
If someone tries to explain something to you, you have a lot of trouble listening for someone who considers themselves an ally.
You’ve answered my second question at least. As I said in the other reply to your hostile reply elsewhere, enjoy the block.
