Psychology uses terms such as 'bipolar disorder' and 'transsexualism' to refer to specific symptoms, not diseases or disorders (despite the word 'disorder' in 'bipolar disorder'). As a result of this, they cannot possibly cause each other. However, there could possibly be disease(s) that lead to both bipolar disorder as well as transsexualism. An example is post traumatic stress. Post traumatic stress could lead to either bipolar disorder or transsexualism or both. The truth is, psychology has not been sufficiently developed to answer this question accurately and with certainty. It is philosophy, and statistics, not yet a hard science.
