- The process of determining an individual’s sex relatively shortly after birth, usually documented on official records, such as a birth certificate. Determination is usually based on the appearance of external genitalia but may use other methodologies. In practice, sex assigned at birth is often culturally variable; the term “gender assigned at birth” is often more applicable or accurate.
