Partial androgen insensitivity syndrome (PAIS) is a condition that results in the partial inability of the cell to respond to androgens. The partial unresponsiveness of the cell to the presence of androgenic hormones impairs the masculinization of male genitalia in the developing fetus as well as the development of male secondary sexual characteristics at puberty but does not significantly impair female genital or sexual development.
