Abstract:
Gender dysphoria, a discrepancy between gender identity and genetically determined sex, is encountered in approximately 0.5% of people uniformly across the world. In the case of transgender men, formerly called female-to-male transsexuals, the available gender-affirming measures, hormone therapy and possible surgical procedures, are multiple and discussed in detail in this series of articles.
