There are many reasons behind this. one of the reason of sex reversal in chickens discovered the presence of Aromatase inhibition ( which blocks the synthesis of estrogen from testosterone) at a stage when their gonads are bipotential, which causes a genetic female to develop into a permanent phenotypic male. this sex reversal result in development of testis capable of spemetogenesis and physical apperance & behaviour of normal males.

Basically in the process of gonadal Steroidogenesis Estrogen is synthesised from testosterone. Cholesterol----Pregnenolone-----Progesteron
