Abstract
in English, French

This article is the result of the joint work of psychiatrists-psychotherapists working with patients with gender dysphoria (children, adolescents and adults) in Lausanne and Geneva university hospitals. It emphasizes the importance of their clinical interventions when hormone therapy and sex reassignment surgery are requested.

Cet article est issu d’une collaboration entre les psychiatres-psychothérapeutes et les pédopsychiatres-psychothérapeutes intervenant dans les deux consultations universitaires spécialisées pour la dysphorie de genre en Suisse romande et illustre l’importance de leur intervention dans la prise en charge des personnes qui sollicitent des traitements médicochirurgicaux de réassignation sexuelle.
