Brief Answer:
Genetically speaking, she is not a female.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I am sorry to report that even though your daughter has grown up as a female, genetically she is not female. Hence the physical structures like ovaries and uterus would not be growing and she would not be having menses. At such a juncture, things might be really hard and the sexual identity she chooses for herself (or himself) would be critical. Going through the following link would help you find suitable doctors in your area:
