Gender identity disorder (now called gender dysphoria) is a condition where an individual's gender identity does not match their assigned sex at birth. This can cause distress and discomfort, and may lead individuals to seek hormone therapy or gender reassignment surgery to bring their physical body into alignment with their gender identity. Transvestism refers to a fetish for dressing in clothing typically associated with the opposite sex and is not directly related to gender identity. Negative symptoms of gender identity and asexualism are not recognized terms in the field of psychology.
