Yes, e.g. if you have transitioned you should ideally feel less yo no dysphoria. Then again, I have very little life experience on that subject. I would guess that someone who actively does what they feel like should also feel less since they are not forced into something they do not like. And some base amount of dysphoria in life is "surely" normal.

You don't even have to experience dysphoria before transitioning

In my case, I never felt distress from my agab but have experienced euphoria. For info, I am trans NB, but still relatively early in transition.

Oh I see, trans here means like "not cis" rather than having transitioned from some assigned or assumed gender identity.

I can certainly see how not experiencing dysphoria is rare for binary trans people, because the two gender roles are pretty heavily enforced in most societies.
