Anyone ever heard of this?

"An Indian girl who spent the first 18 years of her life as a female has just discovered that she is a boy.
Poonam approached doctors at the Sawai Mansingh Hospital in Jaipur, complaining of pain in the lower abdomen
Tests revealed a developing male sex organ, which was freed after a two-and-a-half hour operation."
Is this ever possible? I've never heard of such a thing, but I know next to nothing about biology, so I really can't say if this is BS or not, as fishy and odd as it sounds.

Hmm . . .
I've had a pain in that same general area ever since I felt something pull when I was running to catch a bus awhile ago, but I hope it's not due to the same reason, because I'm not sure what I would do with a supernumerary . . .
Possibly TMI Maru

Almighty Ruler of the all,
Whose Power extends to great and small,
Who guides the stars with steadfast law,
Whose least creation fills with awe,
O grant thy mercy and thy grace,
To those who venture into space.
