Sexual maturation disorder is a disorder of anxiety or depression related to an uncertainty about one's gender identity or sexual orientation. The World Health Organization lists sexual maturation disorder in the ICD-10, under "Psychological and behavioural disorders associated with sexual development and orientation".[1]
Sexual orientation, by itself, is not a disorder and is not classified under this heading.[2] It differs from ego-dystonic sexual orientation where the sexual orientation or gender identity is repressed or denied.[3]
