Clitoromegaly (or macroclitoris[1]) is an abnormal enlargement of the clitoris that is mostly congenital; it is otherwise acquired through deliberately induced clitoral enlargement e.g. body modification by use of anabolic steroids, including testosterone.[2][3][4][5] It can happen as part of a gender transition. It is not the same as normal enlargement of the clitoris seen during sexual arousal.
