Gender euphoria (GE) is satisfaction or enjoyment felt by a person due to consistency between their gender identity and gendered features associated with a gender different to the sex they were assigned at birth. It is considered to be the positive counterpart of gender dysphoria (GD)—distress felt as a result of a mismatch between a person's gender identity and their assigned sex at birth. Some people may experience both GE and GD, or only one of the two. It is proposed that GE can be understood as "increased subjective well-being associated with gender affirmation, including gender-affirmative medical interventions." People who feel GE may seek out hormone replacement therapy to alter their bodies. Transfeminine people may experience GE after undergoing facial feminization surgery and hair removal.
