Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I think you are worrying too much unnecessarily. Gender issue is not in your discretion. Nobody can decide in which gender you will be born. Therefore, total 60 billion people across world usually do not worry about their gender. Even though they worry, that worry could be short and they find other priorities than thinking about it, because such a thinking and worrying is not worth it. You can also understand this and divert your attentin towards more productive activities like education, career or games. Please do it.

If you still need my assistance in this regard, please use this link. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Please remember to describe the whole problem with full detail.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
