Gender Dysphoria - A definition. A brief definition.
Gender dysphoria is when a person is unhappy with their own masculinity or femininity.
No clear way to resolve this is known. They are sometimes very confused about which gender they most identify with. Transsexualism is almost the complete opposite of gender dysphoria. It is their body that has developed wrongly in the womb and this is the cause of their problems. Transsexualism is thought to have physical causes, it causes physical problems, and the only known way to treat it is with treatment to change the physical shape of the sufferer's body to bring it into line with their psychological identity.
