Nope! Just getting rid of your Passport, reporting it lost and mailing it back in.

Amazing!! I just saw that you're right and that the info is here[1].
1: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/have-passport/lost-stolen.html
Presumably when filling out the form[2], I shouldn't mention my updated name (not yet on the passport) and should wait some time before submitting a follow-up application under my new name/gender?
2: https://eforms.state.gov/Forms/ds64_pdf.PDF
When I do send in a new application, should I apply for a new passport as if it were my first adult passport? Should I be transparent about the previous passport (DS-11 Field 21)?
Edit: Because section 9 of the DS-11 seems to require that we "List all other names you have used: Enter all legal names previously used to include maiden name, name changes, and previous married names."
Edit 2: As for my SSN -- presumably I should update the associated name/gender before beginning this process? As I understand it, it's a different federal agency.
Edit 3: It is stated that "If no gender marker is selected, we may print the gender as listed on your supporting evidence or contact you for more information." Does this suggest the move is to, rather than perjure oneself and not tick "changing gender marker" (which may well go away as an option soon), to simply not mark a gender and submit the supporting documents alone?
