Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a violation of human rights. The painful procedure is most often performed without anaesthetics, and the same knife is used for several girls without sterilisation between cuts. In case of excessive bleeding or infection, the procedure can be fatal. It can also cause chronic pain, for instance when urinating.
