Amends South Carolina law to prevent the Department of Public Health from changing an individual's sex on a birth certificate, except to correct.

This bill amends South Carolina law to prohibit the Department of Public Health from changing an individual's sex on a birth certificate, except to correct clerical errors or misclassifications due to a medically verified disorder of sexual development. It defines "disorder of sexual development" as a congenital condition involving atypical development of sex chromosomes, gonads, internal genital ducts, or external genitalia, including disorders of sex hormone synthesis or action. The bill also modifies the definition of "sex" to mean an individual's biological sex, either male or female.
