    After their genitals were cut, some women seek healing

    The practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is a deeply entrenched form of gender-based violence that affects millions of women and girls worldwide, and has devastating physical, mental and emotional consequences. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recognized FGM as a human rights violation and set a goal to end the practice by 2030. While progress has been made in raising awareness and reducing the prevalence of FGM, there is still much work to be done in eliminating it completely.

    The physical effects of FGM are well-documented, ranging from immediate pain and bleeding to long-term complications such as urinary tract infections, menstrual problems, painful intercourse and childbirth complications. However, the emotional impact of the practice has often been overlooked. Many women and girls who have been subjected to FGM suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, low self-esteem and difficulty forming relationships.

    In many countries where FGM is widely practiced, medical treatments and psychological counseling are not widely available, leaving women and girls to seek out support and healing on their own. Women in these communities often turn to the internet and social media to find information and connect with others who have experienced the same trauma.

    Although some faith leaders have worked to eliminate FGM, others continue to condone it, which can be a barrier to change. Additionally, many governments lack the political will to take action, and there is often a perception that ending FGM is a “Western-led agenda”.

    In spite of these challenges, there are some organizations that offer specialized treatments and psychological support for those living with the consequences of FGM. In Egypt, for example, the Restore FGM clinic offers surgical and non-surgical therapies to help women reclaim control of their health and bodies.

    Ultimately, the fight to end FGM must be multi-faceted, involving advocacy, education and access to services. Governments must be held accountable for enacting and enforcing laws that prohibit the practice, and faith leaders must play a role in promoting a culture of acceptance and respect for women and girls. Only with a concerted and sustained effort can we hope to realize the goal of zero tolerance for FGM by 2030.
