Female genital mutilation or female circumcision, is the partial or total removal of the female external Instruments due to non-medical reasons. This could be as a result of some cultural practices.

According to Dr Esther Somefun, a Gender and Reproductive Health Analyst (GRHA), women who have undergone Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) find it difficult to enjoy sex.


According to Vanguard news, women find it difficult to enjoy sex because the external female organ, the clitoris which ensure lubrication during sex has been cut off”.

These women can also experience painful sex, infertility, pelvic inflammatory infections, menstrual pains and keloids.


Female genital mutilation can also cause obstructed labour due to the narrowing of the external Instruments. Women with type two and three FGM are most at risk during child birth.”

The expert said lubricants can be used but it will not totally resolve the pain experienced during sex.

She disclosed that corrective surgery can be done to open the female Instruments to allow for easy passage of the male genitals.

There is no risk of gynecological problems including painful menstruation, no repeated pelvic infections or problems of infertility and urinary tract infections.

“Sexual intercourse will not be painful and there is no risk of obstructed labour.”

Those experiencing female genital mutilation complications should see a gynecologist. Parents and girls should join the advocacy against the act.


Key facts on Female genital mutilation according to WHO

Female genital mutilation (FGM) involves the partial or total removal of external female Instruments or other injury to the female genital organs for non-medical reasons.
The practice has no health benefits for girls and women.
FGM can cause severe bleeding and problems urinating, and later cysts, infections, as well as complications in childbirth and increased risk of newborn deaths.
More than 200 million girls and women alive today have been cut in 30 countries in Africa, the Middle East and Asia where FGM is concentrated (1).
FGM is mostly carried out on young girls between infancy and age 15.
FGM is a violation of the human rights of girls and women.
WHO is opposed to all forms of FGM, and is opposed to health care providers performing FGM (medicalization of FGM).
Treatment of health complications of FGM in 27 high prevalence countries costs 1.4 billion USD per year.
There are no health benefits, only severe harm
severe pain
excessive bleeding (haemorrhage)
genital tissue swelling
fever
infections e.g., tetanus
urinary problems
wound healing problems
injury to surrounding genital tissue
shock
death.
urinary problems (painful urination, urinary tract infections);
vaginal problems (discharge, itching, bacterial vaginosis and other infections);
menstrual problems (painful menstruations, difficulty in passing menstrual blood, etc.);
scar tissue and keloid;
sexual problems (pain during intercourse, decreased satisfaction, etc.);
increased risk of childbirth complications (difficult delivery, excessive bleeding, caesarean section, need to resuscitate the baby, etc.) and newborn deaths;
psychological problems (depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, low self-esteem, etc.);

Who is at risk?

Female genital is mostly carried out on young girls sometime between infancy and adolescence, and occasionally on adult women. More than 3 million girls are estimated to be at risk annually.

The practice is mainly concentrated in the Western, Eastern, and North-Eastern regions of Africa, in some countries the Middle East and Asia, as well as among migrants from these areas. FGM is therefore a global concern.
