Say, in some mythical way, you could have been given a choice between two options before your birth:
1. Your mom discovers the problem causing your apparent sterility early in pregnancy and chooses to abort and try again - and your soul gets carried to the next body in question. 2. You know what you're going to be born like, that you're never going to get to choose to have kids, and certainly that you're never going to get to carry children as a female.
Some people - maybe not you - would choose to try again instead of getting born into a life they would be unhappy in.
Hell, if I'd gotten to choose my own personal situation, I wouldn't be here in my present form at all. But my parents chose for me. They decided to make me and they decided to give birth to me and name me and really, they made all the choices up until I was about sixteen.
Given an option and a choice, I'd probably trade you bodies.
But even an adult human isn't considered competent to make a decision like THAT. Heck, adult humans aren't considered competent to choose when they themselves want to die.
