Due to rising rates of immigration to the United States, it is more likely that health care providers will encounter patients subjected to FGM/C. In this column, I review clinicians’ knowledge of and experience in delivering care to women with FGM/C, patient experiences, the role of clinical guidelines, screening, research gaps, laws, and data.
