The correct answer is
she will often develop with genitals that have an intermediate appearance.

That means that some parts might be enlarged and resemble some other body parts that can be found with the opposite sex. This occurrence is often known as Pseudohermaphroditism because the secondary characteristics are developed but not the primary ones.
