My girlfriend told me, in all honesty, she is feeling more like a he. I have no problems with that but something came to my mind:
She is taking Contraceptive injections as a birth control method, these injections contain progesteron, high progesteron levels make you want to do nothing all day, can cause problems with sleeping and food cravings, elevated progesteron levels also cause lowered estrogen levels wich in turn could cause a bad mood (or depression?).
She has all these 'symptoms' so could it be that because she is taking those injections she is feeling less like a girl? I don't have anything against trans people but i was just wondering because this is the only logical reason i can think off.
(Crosspost from LGBT but i thought it would be good to get both opinions on this subject)

Gender dysphoria is a mental illness. Hope they will finda a cure soon.

Hormones will fuck with you. Just use condoms FFS. I doubt she will get to the point of being truly transexual, but if she is not liking the effects, get her off of it.
To completely predict the effects hormone treatments will have is almost impossible, not even counting the placebo effects. All we have are statistics and risk factors. Changes in sex drive are well known. The details of that change are unpredictable.

Gender dysphoria is a result of hormones influencing brain development prenatally. Hormones taken after birth can't cause dysphoria. Maybe they can put someone in a state of mind that allows for repressed feelings to bubble to the surface.

isn't it obvious those injections are fucking with her brain?

A "cure" would require restructuring the entire brain. That likely will never be commercially available. It's likely never gonna happen that brain restructuring will be cheaper, more convenient, or more effective than transitioning.
Maybe we'll be able one day to prescreen fetuses and small children. Maybe there's something we will be able to
do to cure dysphoria in those groups.
Also, it is explicitly said to not be a mental illness in the DSM.

Wait 50 years. Claim it was never a disease in the first place.
About as close as it gets since labotomies went out of fashion.
