"Gender
dysphoria (GD)
is the distress a person experiences due to inconsistency between
their gender
identity—their
personal sense of their own gender—and
their sex
assigned at birth. The
term replaced the previous diagnostic label of gender
identity disorder (GID)
in 2013 with the release of the diagnostic manual DSM-5.
The condition was renamed to remove the stigma associated
with the term disorder. The ICD-11,
which does not consider it a mental
disorder,
uses the term gender
incongruence (GI)
instead of gender
dysphoria,
defined as a marked and persistent mismatch between gender identity
and assigned sex, regardless of distress or impairment.."
