FGM has adverse physical health and mental health as well. Though this practise has been doing on the name of religion, norms for societal acceptance and tradition, but how much is this procedure is safer for women is questionable. Women are suffering from many complications and emotional issues who had undergone FGM. Through, this review paper, I will bring to light mental health related issues associated with female genitalia mutilation.
