Abstract

Gender Identity Disorder (GID) is a complex problem. This report describes three cases of GID with more or less similar clinical presentation. It was interesting to note that inspite of the similarity in their early clinical features, their own approach towards their illness, the reaction of the family members and the outcome were different. The report also highlights the need for different therapeutic approaches required in the individual cases.
