October 2025 in “Portuguese National Funding Agency for Science, Research and Technology (RCAAP Project by FCT)” A incongruência de género, quando associada a sofrimento, é conhecida como disforia de género, afetando cerca de 2% da população mundial em 2024. As intervenções terapêuticas, essenciais para essas condições, incluem transição social e médica, com tratamentos hormonais específicos para adolescentes e adultos.
