The simple definition of dysphoria: "Dysphoria or dysphoric mood is a mental state in which a person has a profound sense of unease or dissatisfaction."[1] In the context of 'Gender dysphoria' the medical profession assumes that gender roles, gender conventions, gender customs, gender taboos, and gender expectations are given with biological sex and thus any rejection of these roles amounts to a "denial" of biology. Thus any person who is uncomfortable with "gender expectations and labels" is deemed to also deny their physical genitals, a proposition that may amount to a hyperbole.
