Does she need to have testicles to produce testosterone, right?

Testosterone is known to help regulate the sex drive of all humans, it plays a bigger role for biological males than females is all.

And there’s a big spectrum of intersex people where the levels and impacts are more varied

Sho what exactly is she? Trans? Hermaphrodite? Male? Female? I’m confused at this point.

I’ve not checked, I believe you’re asking about the Olympic boxer?

My best understanding is she’s intersex with maybe a chromosome disorder

No, she isn’t. She’s just a woman. No one ever tested her chromosomes.
