'''Gender Dysphoria''' or just '''Dysphoria''' is a feeling of discomfort, distress, or self hatred stemming from a disconnect between one's internal sense of gender
Gender dysphoria is recognized as a medical condition, previously known as gender identity disorder (GID) in the DSM until it was renamed gender dysphoria in 2013 with the release of the DSM-5. The diagnosis was renamed to remove the stigma associated with the term disorder<ref>https://www.britannica.com/science/gender-dysphoria</ref>. Gender dysphoria is typically treated with hormone replacement therapy, and/or surgery. [[Cisgender]] people can experience a similar condition known as body dysmorphic disorder.
