Normal development of ovaries in a female with absent uterus and vagina indicates which of the following genetic conditions?
Correct Answer: Mullerian agenesis
Description: Mullerian agenesis is the failure of the paramesonephric ducts to develop. In mullerian agenesis, the ovaries are not affected and thus ovarian function is normal. Secondary sexual development and height are in a normal range. The condition is also called MRKH or Mayer-Rokitansky-Kustner-Hauser Syndrome.
