Abstract

Gender detransition is an emerging yet poorly understood phenomenon in our society. In the absence of research, clinicians and researchers have applied the concept of detransition differently, leading to inconsistencies in its use. The article suggests a typology of gender detransition based on the cessation or the continuation of a transgender identity to address this issue. Implications of this typology for healthcare providers are discussed, emphasizing the increasing necessity of developing clinical guidelines for detransitioners. Finally, the article reflects on the possibilities of preventing detransition, which underlines the challenges that clinicians face when treating individuals with gender dysphoria.

摘要

性别去过渡是我们社会中一种新兴但知之甚少的现象。在缺乏研究的情况下，临床医生和研究人员以不同的方式应用去过渡的概念，导致其使用不一致。这篇文章提出了一种基于变性身份的停止或延续的性别去变性类型学来解决这个问题。讨论了这种类型对医疗保健提供者的影响，强调了为去过渡者制定临床指南的日益必要性。最后，文章反思了预防变性的可能性，这强调了临床医生在治疗患有性别不安的个体时面临的挑战。
