/Mental Health Disorders/Paraphilias and Gender Identity Disorder

Gender Identity Disorder not Otherwise Specified

This category is for gender identity problems that don't quite fit the specific category. Examples include people who cross-dress only transiently and when stressed, or males who would like castration or penectomy without wanting the sex characteristics of the other sex. Cases of less intense dissatisfaction with the biologic sex may also fit into this category. The usual caveats apply--the problem must be persistent and troubling.
