Bireylerin mevcut biyolojik cinsiyetlerinden hoşnutsuzlukları ve karşıt cinsiyete ait hissetme durumu cinsiyet disforisi olarak tanımlanır. Bu davranış özelliğinin oluşmasında çevresel birçok faktörün yanı sıra kişilerin kendine has genetik özellikleri de etkilidir. Kişilerin yaşamında köklü değişikliklere neden olan bu durumun genetik temelini araştıran çalışmalar nispeten yenidir. Bu derlemede, cinsiyet disforisi olan bireylerde bu davranış paterninin genetik temelini araştıran çalışmalar irdelenmiş ve gelecek araştırmalar için yol gösterici olacak bilgilere yer verilmiştir.

The Role of Genetic Factors in Gender Dysphoria

Öz

The
dissatisfaction of individuals with their existing biological sex and feeling
of belonging to the opposite sex is defined as gender dysphoria. Many
environmental factors and genetic features are effective in the emergence of
this behavior. Studies investigating the genetic basis of this condition, which
leads to serious changes in people's lives, are relatively new. In this review,
the studies investigating the genetic basis of this behavioral pattern in
individuals with gender dysphoria are examined and information that will guide
for future researches is presented.
