Transgender youth are those who experience incongruence between their assigned sex at birth, and their gender identity. Ongoing distress that results in an impairment of function about this incongruence is termed gender dysphoria. In order to help alleviate this distress, many transgender youth require physical changes to their bodies in order to bring them into closer alignment with their internal gender identity. Historically, most transgender individuals seeking medical interventions (hormones and/or surgery) for gender transition have and still continue to access care in adulthood.
