males usually have hemipene bulges on the underside of the base of the tail and a bigger, bulkier head than females. Your best bet is to find some photos of known males and females and compare yours to those.

You could also check out Rob Faust's book Nile Monitors. It has an entire chapter on sexing Niles.
