Depends, some hermi's will produce a few flowers, and some will be full blown hermie's with hundreds of flowers, and are near impossible to control. If you notice it has too many flowers, get rid of it. Pollen from hermie's is not the best to use, you might find that it passes the hermie trait on, or it could produce seeds that are mostly fem.
If the flowers have opened, and your hermie is near you other plants, they will be seeded.

Its a rookie mistake to keep herm plants. The seeds will be tainted with herm traits more often than not. Finding the male flowers is painstaking and never 100 successful. Anyway, toss it (or smoke it).

I personally would get rid of it.Hermies are no good,and give your females more seeds than buds.I made the mistake of keeping one one time,and I had so many seeds in my buds,I couldn't give the shit away.How big is it,a pic would be nice.If it's big enough,make some hash from it,or smoke it,but get it away from your females,also,if you really don't want to kill it,put it in another area,far away from your females.

Dutch Master makes a product called Reverse. It turns hermies back into females.

im almost to lazy to get a camera been smoking some killaer buds.
i think it has turned back into female and the lower branches are the male(this was the plant that got ate BY SOME DEER) Ive remove all the male flowers so far i figger if i keep up with it i should be able to get all off but theres so many hairs on it now it looks like thats all thats growing! ill separate them if i can find a good location some where but didn't want to stress it out anymore than it has to be.

the fan leaves store chlorophyl energy for the buds.
The bigger the fan leaves the bigger the buds grow.

Yep,I was going to say that.There is no reason whatsoever to remove fan leaves from the plants,unless they are blocking some buds from getting light.

even if it blocks the bud from getting light it's ok because the fan leaves are what feeds the buds. The buds themselves aren't there for chlorophyl  .
Sure the lower buds will be smaller than the top buds but they always will be anyways no matter what. They don't need the direct light. They need the fan leaves to supply food.

thanks KBG 
yeah I have other pics somewhere on my backup hd.
The plants with the biggest fattest fan leaves always kicked MAJOR ass.
I had some plants that totally blocked out light to below and the buds down below turned out FAT.
