Is it possible to treat gender dysphoria without medical methods like hormone therapy and surgery?

It is indeed unfortunate that the causes of gender dysphoria are not well understood at this point of time. I am inclined to think that there are multiple causation factors that can be considered. First, medical explanations. Fluctuations or imbalance in hormones during pregnancy may predispose to the development of gender dysphoria. There are links that have been found between transgender identity and brain structure. Brain structure of transsexuals seems to be intermediate between men and women. No specific gene for transexuality has been identified so far.

Hello, You should allow the child to talk about his or her feelings regarding her gender and his/her preferences. Your replies depend on what the child feels and says. If you are unable to answer the child's questions, you should seek professional help.
