ALBERTI, Sonia  y  SILVA, Heloene Ferreira da. Issues of Gender Dysphoria in Childhood: Between Psychoanalysis and Medicine. Rev. Subj. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.spe2, pp.1-11. ISSN 2359-0769.  https://doi.org/10.5020/23590777.rs.v20iesp2.e8822.

Concerning psychoanalysis, what is our policy regarding gender issues? This is the question that this text raises from the work with a child referred for diagnosis after the pediatrician's suspicion that she would have gender dysphoria. Resuming the guidelines that guide medicine regarding the issue today, observing the analytical work of this child and situating ourselves in the face of crucial observations, both by Freud and Lacan, on the analyst's stance on the issues of the subjectivity of his time, we discussed the fallacy of binarity that prevails in a biologizing world. We are guided, methodologically, in two ways: discourse discussion and clinical work according to research in psychoanalysis, that is, making the subject speak to, from there, build possible beacons for their own identity, so it is possible to update the Freudian reference to the impossible.

Palabras clave : gender; sexuation; clinical case; medicine and psychoanalysis.
