=== ICD-11 === The [[International Classification of Diseases]] ([[ICD-11]]) lists three conditions<!--They are defined as "conditions" by the ICD, not "diseases" or "disorders".--> related to gender identity:<ref name="icd11-gc">{{cite web |title=Gender incongruence (ICD-11) |url=https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en#/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/411470068 |access-date=August 28, 2018 |website=icd.who.int |publisher=[[World Health Organization]] |archive-date=August 1, 2018 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20180801205234/https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en%23/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/294762853#/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/411470068 |url-status=live}}</ref> * Gender incongruence of adolescence or adulthood ({{ICD11|HA60|90875286}}) * [[Gender incongruence of childhood]] ({{ICD11|HA61|344733949}}) * Gender incongruence, unspecified ({{ICD11|HA6Z}}) ICD-11 defines gender incongruence as "a marked and persistent incongruence between an individual's experienced gender and the assigned sex", with no requirement for significant distress or impairment, and a note that "gender variant behaviour and preferences alone are not a basis for assigning the diagnosis..<ref name="icd11-gc"/><ref name="who"/> The ICD-10 contained the diagnoses "transsexualism" and "gender identity disorder of children" under the chapter "Mental and behavioral disorders" chapter. The ICD-11 renamed the conditions "gender incongruence of adolescence" or adulthood and "gender incongruence of childhood" and moved them into the chapter "Conditions related to sexual health" to reflect "current knowledge that trans-related and gender diverse identities are not conditions of mental ill-health, and that classifying them as such can cause enormous stigma". The [[World Health Organization]] said its inclusion in the ICD-11 "should ensure transgender people’s access to gender-affirming health care" and health insurance.<ref name="who"/>
