Portuguese term or phrase: Definição sexual

Estou tentando traduzir o parágrafo abaixo, de uma monografia médica, e estou bem confusa quanto ao termo que uso para definição sexual, pois no caso eu entendo que é a definição do sexo quando o bebê nasce, pensei em colocar "gender definition", mas tem horas que acho que não está certo. Aí mudo pra "gender identification", mas no Google tem site que fala que "identification" é o sexo com o qual a pessoa se identifica, como ela se sente. Acho que meus neurônios já chegaram ao limite hoje, se alguém puder me ajudar. Só quero confirmar se "gender definition" vai ficar correto.

"A inclusão de definição sexual com redesignação sexual numa mesma matriz poderia ser motivo de questionamento, pois se trata de termos distintos que falam sobre definição do sexo em contextos muito diferentes, um ao nascimento e o outro ao longo da vida."

Até agora coloquei o início como:

"The inclusion of gender definition and gender reassignmet in the same matrix ..."

By Gerda Siann.

For some time sex has been defined as the biological difference between men and women, and gender as the manner in which culture defines and constrains these differences. Feminine/masculine, male/female, women/men, boy/girl - terms of sexual and gender division like these permeate the way we think and talk about ourselves and each other. On most occasions we find their use non-problematic and people employ them easily, at other times, however, particularly if we are interested in psychology, we may wonder whether this ease is illusory.; One may speculate whether being a woman necessarily implies being "feminine". One may question why young women are often referred to as girls, while men are seldom referred to as boys. Is dressing in a stereotypically feminine manner a reliable indication that a woman is heterosexual? What about cross dressing? Why do these topics hold so much fascination for the media?; "Gender, Sex and Sexuality" examines the effects that the inequalities experienced between men and women have had on the psychologies of both sexes, and the battle to remove them. It aims to introduce the reader to current research and theories, drawing on novels, theatre, soap operas, as well as research for case histories.

gender determination/identification

Explanation:
Olá Karina,

Encontrei referências referentes ao seu contexto, tanto como "gender ïdentification" quanto como "determination," os dois na fase intrauterina ou ao nascimento, que é justamente sentido da sua "definição sexual."

Eu, particularmente usaria "gender determination"para evitar possíveis confusões com questionamentos em relação a qual sexo as pessoas "se identificam/se sentem pertencentes a"
