Dataset on Social Issues of Individuals with Gender Dysphoria Post-Gender Reassignment in Iran

This study explores the complex individual and social challenges faced by transgender individuals in Iran after undergoing gender reassignment surgery. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research focuses on the lived experiences of 10 participants, uncovering themes such as personal struggles, family dynamics, social isolation, psychological impacts, and the need for continuous support. The data, collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews, reveals that while individuals report personal growth and increased satisfaction post-surgery, they continue to encounter significant emotional, social, and legal barriers. The findings underscore the importance of providing comprehensive psychological, medical, and social support systems to facilitate the well-being and integration of transgender individuals into society.
