strong media exposure and &#8211; at least in some parts of Spain &#8211; the application of different regional laws and the introduction of new healthcare models&#46; The cases represented by adolescents and young adults are particularly complex&#44;

The psychological evaluation made at another centre suggested dysphoria due to gender incongruity&#46; Hormone therapy with estrogens and antiandrogens was therefore started at 18 years of age&#46; This treatment resulted in an improvement of the dysphoric symptoms&#46; The patient first visited our Unit three years after the start of hormone treatments and requested gender confirming surgeries &#40;augmentation mammoplasty&#44; feminizing genital surgery and thyroid chondroplasty&#41;&#46; Repeat evaluation confirmed the existence of an identity conflict&#44; and the standard follow-up protocol was started&#46; The patient reported self-harm and genital self-mutilation ideation since adolescence&#46;</p><p id="par0100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A few years later&#44;

and based on the aforementioned standard protocol&#44; testosterone treatment was started&#46; In 2011&#44; at 19 years of age and after approximately one year of hormone treatment&#44; mastectomy was performed in a private hospital because of severe dysphoria due to large breasts&#44; with a mild improvement of the dysphoric symptoms after the operation&#46;</p><p id="par0140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient presented poor tolerance to testosterone&#44; with hyperexcitability&#44; hyperorexia&#44; insomnia&#44; cystic acne&#44; menstrual disorders and pelvic pain&#44; which did not improve despite GnRH treatment&#46; Hysterectomy with double adnexectomy was therefore decided upon&#44; followed by the disappearance of the symptoms&#44; and allowing for the testosterone dose to be reduced&#46; The patient reported severe genital dysphoria&#44; was refusing to have any type of sexual intercourse&#44; and insisted upon the need for genitoplasty&#46; Borderline personality disorders and other obsessive compulsive disorders were discarded&#46;</p><p id="par0145" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In 2013 the patient suffered an acute psychotic episode requiring psychiatric treatment&#59; the administrative process for the change of gender was therefore stopped &#40;the process was in course at the time&#41;&#46;</p><p id="par0150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient claimed to be gradually regaining a more feminine identity&#44; already preferring to be treated as a female&#44; though without initially regretting either the surgery or the treatment provided&#46; With regard to sexual orientation&#44; the patient felt bisexual&#46;</p><p id="par0155" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Over successive visits to endocrinology and sexology outpatient clinics&#44; the patient showed changing identity and dysphoria&#44; sometimes requesting to be treated as a male and sometimes as a female&#46; This in turn was associated with severe depressive symptoms and a psychotic disorder with hallucinations&#44; requiring antipsychotic drug therapy that continues to date&#46; The patient remained under psychiatric supervision and stopped reporting for scheduled visits to our Unit&#46;</p><p id="par0160" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient returned three years later&#44;

regrets having undergone mastectomy&#44; but acknowledges that her male features will be maintained as well as social treatment as a male&#46; The request of an administrative change of gender to male was proposed in order to avoid situations of social risk&#44; and the patient generally acknowledges the irreversibility of the changes&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0030" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0100">Case 3</span><p id="par0165" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A 16-year-old individual with no relevant medical history started evaluation at our Unit in July 2017 due to gender incongruity&#46; Personal gender identity was not consistent with the gender assigned at birth &#40;female&#41; since 13 years of age&#46; The patient presented mild to moderate dysphoric symptoms &#40;especially referring to voice&#44; with lesser concern about breasts or menstruation&#41;&#46; Her partner is a transgender male&#44; and the patient is very active in social networks and LGTBI groups&#46; The patient has partially undergone social transition&#46;</p><p id="par0170" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">After ruling out associated psychological comorbidity capable of causing identity confusion&#44; and with an evaluation period of a little more than 6 months&#44; treatment was started with transdermal testosterone and social transition was completed in May 2018&#44; at 15 years of age&#46;</p><p id="par0175" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">At the first post-treatment controls&#44; the patient claimed to feel comfortable with the changes that had occurred&#44; especially regarding tone of voice&#44; with increased acquisition of social skills and lessened dysphoria&#46;</p><p id="par0180" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">One year later the patient expressed the desire to discontinue hormone therapy&#46; The patient questioned the binary concept of gender&#58; &#8220;What is it to be male and what is it to be female&#63;&#8221;&#44; maintaining male gender identity and expression&#44; and preferring to be treated as a male&#44; but without rejecting her secondary sexual characteristics or menstruation&#46; The patient considered that the hormone treatment was offering no benefit at identity level&#44; and attributed the improvement of dysphoria to her own maturity gained over time&#44; increased self-esteem and the social transition made&#46;</p><p id="par0185" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient also explained that before and during transition&#44; she gained the idea from various information channels &#40;including the Internet&#44; her partner and other transgender people she related to&#41; that hormone therapy was the solution to both her identity problems and other concerns&#44; such therapy being seen by her as the only possible option&#46;</p><p id="par0190" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Hormone therapy was therefore withdrawn&#44; and active follow-up by Sexology was decided upon&#46;</p><p id="par0195" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient currently lives&#44; acts&#44; identifies and relates to others as a male&#44;

with a self-reported identity not consistent with the gender assigned at birth &#40;male&#41; since approximately 17 years of age&#46; There was no clear previous suggestive behaviour and minimal social intervention&#46;</p><p id="par0205" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">At 18 years of age and after associated psychological comorbidity capable of causing identity confusion had been ruled out&#44; and with an evaluation period of a little more than 6 months&#44; feminizing hormone treatment was started and his level of social intervention was expanded&#46; Approximately four months later&#44; the patient informed us that he had discontinued this treatment&#46;</p><p id="par0210" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient explained that as his social interventions gradually increased&#44; he felt less comfortable being treated as a female or with the physical changes that had occurred&#46; These changes failed to meet his expectations in terms of improved emotional wellbeing&#46; In addition&#44; the patient had a partner &#40;a cissexual male&#41; who helped him accept his body&#44; thereby improving the dysphoria&#44; and allowing the patient to finally identify himself as a man with a homosexual orientation&#46;</p><p id="par0215" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient currently lives&#44;

case&#46; This was a person who&#44; several years after social&#44; medical&#44; surgical and administrative transition&#44; changed his sense of identity &#40;identity desistance&#41; and requested reversal of all the changes achieved&#46; The case was evaluated by an expert psychologist before the start of treatment and during the subsequent medical-surgical interventions&#46;</p><p id="par0225" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The lateness of onset distinguishes this case from the majority of reported cases&#46;</p><p id="par0230" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The cases reported in the literature are early detransitions &#40;with identity loss or modification&#41; occurring in the early stages of social transition or hormone treatment&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0215"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19&#44;20</span></a> In this person there was confusion between identity and sexual orientation&#44; which was discovered when he explored and experienced new forms of sexuality which he had not previously explored&#46;</p><p id="par0235" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">That is why all individuals presenting with a gender identity problem should be encouraged to explore all possible options and not insist on the idea that medicalization is the only possible way to resolve their dysphoria&#46;</p><p id="par0240" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another important aspect is the presence of surgical and administrative changes at the time of desistance&#59; detransition is therefore much more complex&#46;</p><p id="par0245" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">At present&#44; administrative reversal or detransition referring to name and gender has not been legalized in Spain&#44; in contrast to the situation in other countries&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0225"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21&#44;22</span></a> This is an issue that should be addressed by future legislation in our country&#46;</p><p id="par0250" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">With regard to detransition with established surgical interventions&#44; no protocols have been established to date&#46; Such protocols should be considered by future clinical guides&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0235"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23&#44;24</span></a></p><p id="par0255" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The second of our patients corresponds to a case of identity desistance in an individual with a non-binary gender variant&#44; without clear identity consolidation&#46; The case history included certain features common to those described in the Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria &#40;ROGD&#41; pattern&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0205"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span></a> such as a late onset with no previous suggestive behaviour&#44; and with insufficient improvement with social transition and pharmacological treatment&#46; However&#44; the fact that the identity crisis coincided with the onset of psychiatric disease&#44; which was not present at the start&#44; leads us to believe that this was the most decisive factor&#46; As in the previous case&#44; irreversible surgical adaptations had been made in the form of mastectomy and gonadectomy&#46; However&#44; it is not only the irreversibility of the surgical changes that needs to be taken into account&#59; cross-sex hormone therapy also implies changes that are only partially reversible&#44; and some of the features acquired as a result of such therapy &#40;voice&#44; hair&#44; body distribution&#41; often persist&#46;</p><p id="par0260" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another important issue arising from this case is the need for psychological care not only before&#44; but also during follow-up&#46;</p><p id="par0265" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The third of our patients presented a peculiarity with respect to the other cases in that detransition was not associated with identity desistance&#44; though the observed evolution in her non-binary ideas could in future possibly lead to a gender variant&#46; This is a very illustrative example of the difference between identity desistance and detransition&#46; This case also allows us to reflect upon how gender identity does not have to condition the expression of that gender or be accompanied by dysphoria due to the sexual characteristics&#46; It highlights the usefulness and need of social transition&#44; working on self-esteem and constantly reassessing sexuality&#44; moving away from rigid binary models&#46; A sexual psychologist who is an expert in gender identity should therefore be a pivotal element in the multidisciplinary team&#46;</p><p id="par0270" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Finally&#44; this case raises questions regarding the role excessive and inadequate media exposure may play in decision making among some people with gender diversity&#46; Directing all people with gender variants towards medicalization might generate strongly binary models&#44; based only on aesthetic concerns and possibly resulting in frustration and regret&#46; Guidance limited to the testimonies of other transgender individuals in the social media&#44; without other options being explored&#44; can be counterproductive&#46; It is our responsibility to inform our patients that medicalization is not the only way to avoid personal and social conflicts&#46;</p><p id="par0275" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The last of our patients corresponds to an individual characterized by detransition with identity desistance shortly after the start of pharmacological treatment&#44; in the absence of surgery of any kind&#46; In this case&#44; social transition triggered the initially expressed identity modification&#46; Very possibly&#44; the patient was confusing identity with sexual orientation&#46; This once again highlights the importance of social transition as a form of identity self-exploration and knowledge&#46; Social transition should be progressive and comfortable for the individual&#44; avoiding situations of risk&#46; It is very enriching to be able to live through experiences and situations&#44; exploring and recognizing the changes in wellbeing that occur&#46;</p><p id="par0280" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We again run into confusion between identity and orientation&#46; This is a common and widely described condition&#44; particularly in prepubertal and adolescent boys and girls&#46; As a result&#44; the most widely recognized clinical guides<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0155"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7&#8211;9</span></a> advise caution and individualized evaluation&#46;</p><p id="par0285" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The difference between a &#8220;desire to belong&#8221; to the opposite sex &#40;social advantages&#44; sexual relations&#44; role and gender expression&#41; and true gender incongruity is something that should be worked upon by the psychologist before starting any intervention&#46;</p><p id="par0290" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Although in the last year special emphasis has been placed on ROGD as a possible risk marker for detransition&#44; none of the cases in our series presented a clear pattern&#44; nor was ROGD the factor triggering detransition&#46; Nevertheless&#44; it is advisable to identify cases with ROGD criteria and to try to adopt more progressive strategies&#44; promoting management options other than medicalization&#46;</p><p id="par0295" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Other proposed detransition risk factors have been non-binary genders&#44; the late appearance of identity perception&#44; a lesser intensity of dysphoria&#44; and decompensated psychological disorders&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0195"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">15&#8211;17</span></a></p><p id="par0300" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">All the cases described herein were re-evaluated by an expert sexologist&#44; and it was concluded that based on the data obtained during the initial assessment&#44; we were dealing with stable and sustained identity processes which today would again have been classified as gender incongruity&#44; with the offer of the possibility of medical and surgical support&#46; Likewise&#44; in all of the cases&#44; the facilitation of social transition and the start of medical treatment initially resulted in an improvement of the dysphoric symptoms&#44; but with the subsequent appearance of conflict &#40;in some cases more than 10 years later&#41;&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0045" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0115">Conclusions</span><p id="par0305" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Demand for care in GIUs and endocrinology clinics because of gender incongruity has increased significantly in recent years&#46; There have also been major changes in the user profile&#46; Young people&#44; who may be very demanding and are often highly informed&#44; account for a large percentage of such demands&#46; In addition&#44; there are also increasing numbers of people living with gender variants who possibly might not benefit from medical action&#46; Many of the new care models attempted in Spain place Endocrinology at the frontline of care&#44; though in many cases there is a lack of teams capable of comprehensively assessing the situation and the personal needs of each individual&#46;</p><p id="par0310" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Excessive and hasty medicalization without other alternatives being explored can lead to subsequent frustrations&#44; with regret&#44; desistance and detransition&#46; We believe that management should be provided by an experienced multidisciplinary team&#44; capable of individually assessing the particular needs and circumstances of each person&#46; It should always be taken into account that there are situations that do not benefit from medical-surgical therapies&#46; Medicalization is not the only option&#46; All individuals should explore and decide their own course of life&#44; but with the support of as much information as possible&#44; so boosting both their self-knowledge and self-esteem&#46; We should act with increased caution in atypical identity cases&#46; However&#44; we consider that the existence of detransition cases does not invalidate the need for public and specialized care for these people&#44; most of whom clearly benefit from such management&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0050" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0120">Financial support</span><p id="par0315" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This study was carried out based on data from the Gender Identity Unit of Hospital Dr&#46;
