JAKARTA - The Army Chief of Staff, General Andika Perkasa, confirmed that the female volleyball athlete Aprilia Manganang is a man. The medical examination of Aprilia Manganang has been carried out.
"From the results of the examination, it turned out that from the urological examination, it appeared that Sergeant Manganang had more male sex organs. There is not even an internal female sex organ. Hormonal examination is also like that, the hormone testosterone is also measured so that factually and scientifically we believe Sergeant Manganang has more male category hormones. The radiological examination also revealed the same thing, "said Army Chief of Staff Andika to reporters, Tuesday, March 9.
This medical examination was initially carried out at Wolter Mongisidi Hospital, Manado, North Sulawesi on February 3. But the limitations of the hospital made the Indonesian Army decide to bring Aprilia Manganang to Jakarta.

"I consulted to offer what we can help for him. Sgt Manganang apparently welcomed him with great excitement. Apparently this was what I had been waiting for so I presented the complete RSPAD team, we had a complete check at RSPAD using the health care we have, "said the Army Chief of Staff.
