Oh no, House always has to screw it up 3 times before getting it right. And it's never a reasonable thing, you'd get treated for lupus for some reason.
Also House was super shitty to an intersex patient including doing a massive amount of misgendering, so I doubt he'd be better about a trans person.
House would probably find a cure for gender dysphoria because in your case it was ~~lupus~~ a uh, spoon of yours that contained traces of idk mercury or something. Oh how did he know about the gender dysphoria mercury spoon? You never mentioned it? Dw about it sweetheart
Yeeeah... I vaguely remember that. Granted, he was never meant to be a role model, he's a drug addict (although that doesn't stop certain men from thinking he's a badass to emulate?).
So I guess the real episode would go: one of the cool interns makes the recommendation when brainstorming around a white board, he shoots them down, and then assigns all manner of psych drugs that kinda work until the intern does the treatment themselves and get canned for it (but two seasons later we see they're a doctor doing a great job).
