<unk>  (GD) is the distress a person feels due to a mismatch between their<unk>  identitytheir personal sense of their own<unk> and their sex assigned at birth. The diagnostic label<unk>  identity disorder (GID) was used until 2013 with the release of the DSM-5. The condition was renamed to remove the stigma associated with the term disorder. People with<unk>  commonly identify as transgender.<unk>  nonconformity is not the same thing as<unk>  and does not always lead to<unk>  or distress. According to the American Psychiatric Association, not all transgender people experience<unk> ; the critical element of<unk>  is "clinically significant distress". The causes of<unk>  are unknown but a<unk>  identity likely reflects genetic, biological, environmental, and cultural factors. Treatment for<unk>  may include supporting the individual's<unk>  expression or their desire for hormone therapy or surgery. Treatment may also include counseling or psychotherapy. Some researchers and transgender people support declassification of the condition because they say the diagnosis pathologizes<unk>  variance and reinforces the binary model of<unk> . Without the classification of<unk>  as a medical disorder, HRT and<unk>  affirming surgery may be viewed as cosmetic treatments by health insurance, as opposed to medically necessary treatment, and may not be covered.
