Global health groups condemn medicalized FGM as unsafe and unethical, urging bans and training to protect rights.
The UNFPA and WHO, joined by global health groups, have condemned the medicalization of female genital mutilation (FGM), stating it is never safe and violates human rights and medical ethics.
With over 230 million women and girls affected worldwide—80 million in Asia—and about one in four procedures performed by health professionals, the practice falsely suggests safety when none exists.
The organizations urge healthcare workers to refuse all involvement in FGM, calling for strict codes of conduct, training, stronger laws, and monitoring to end the practice and protect bodily autonomy.
