The present work tries to demonstrate that there is a lack of regulation in our country regarding intersex people, which leads not only to the ignorance of their existence, but also the protection of their fundamental rights is left in distress, resulting in medical intervention for the reassignment of sex, where genital mutilation becomes the most common practice to solve what society sees as an imperfectly born body, regardless of the patient's consent. There are rights that despite being invoked in the Constitution, cannot be alleged to the satisfaction of the intersex person. We are not talking about differential or privileged treatment, but rather one that aims to achieve the same results. Therefore, if we understand that fundamental rights correspond equally to every person, why in the case of intersex people this does not happen? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
