Just recently started feeling this OCD theme

I've had a history with OCD with different themes, mainly conspiracy theories, but most recently I started questioning my gender and it sent me down this rabbit hole. I've never experienced any concrete gender dysphoria. I'm okay with being referred to in the masculine sense. I actually take pride in being a son, brother, uncle, and maybe one day a father. I have a history of crossdressing but mostly for a kink and never really desired to be out in public with it. I take great pride in my masculinity, to the point I'm afraid I will have to force myself to become trans and discard that beautiful part of myself. Not gonna ask for reassurance, I understand it doesn't work in the long run, but I will ask for advice from others who are experiencing the same thing. What mental techniques do you use to help get through an episode?
