If your period is the most distressing part of your dysphoria you can look into getting a hysterectomy. This will prevent you from getting pregnant etc.
You could also experience "gender-fluid" phenomenon.
Quote:
Genderfluid; "an identity under the nonbinary, genderqueer and transgender umbrellas. Fluid gender individuals move between two or more different gender identities or expressions at different times or in different situations."
Now, this one may seem more complicated. I like to break it down in terms of comparing it to sexuality (please do not think I am at all comparing or undermining genderfluid people with this example).
A gay person is attracted to the same sex and gender as themselves.
A bisexual person is attracted to both male and female (binary) people.
A pansexual person is attracted to all gender expressions and identities.
Genderfluidity can be viewed as "pangender". As these individuals do not identify as one, but many, gender identities or none at all. They move between all (or some) genders happily and comfortable with doing so.

I think that talking to a therapist who specializes in gender therapy would help you find a happy medium so your body reflects how you feel on the inside. There is nothing wrong with feeling uncomfortable about what you were given at birth. It happens sometimes.
