I was wondering if it's at all possible that a change in state of mind can result in changes in your body like changing the hormonal balance like how an auto-immune disease can affect perfectly healthy parts of your body. There is currently no scientific evidence to suggest that a change in state of mind can result in changes in hormonal balance or physical changes to the body in the same way that autoimmune diseases do. Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues in the body, leading to inflammation and damage to those tissues. Gender dysphoria, which is the distress or discomfort experienced by some individuals due to a mismatch between their gender identity and the sex they were assigned at birth, is a recognized medical condition. Hormone therapy and/or gender-affirming surgery are common treatments for gender dysphoria to help alleviate symptoms. It is possible that the changes you are experiencing could be related to hormonal fluctuations or other factors, but it is important to speak with a healthcare professional who is knowledgeable about transgender health to determine the cause and appropriate course of action.
