Female circumcision, often referred to as female genital mutilation (FGM), involves the partial or total removal of external female genitalia for non-medical reasons. It is a practice rooted in cultural, religious, or social beliefs and is prevalent in various parts of Africa, the Middle East, and some Asian countries. FGM can lead to severe health complications, both physical and psychological, and is widely condemned by health organizations and human rights advocates. Efforts continue globally to eradicate this harmful practice and promote the health and rights of women and girls.
