Historical prevalence of female genital mutilation (FGM) and the Shift from infibulation to clitoridectomy and non-circumcision in Sudan.
Abstract
Graphical extrapolations from previous national surveys on FGM in Sudan have shown overall prevalence of about 96% between 1979 and 1983. In 1991, the overall prevalence was 89.2% with a drop of 7.3%. National surveys of 2000 and 2001 recorded 90% overall prevalence of FGM. About five years later Sudan House Hold Survey (2006) reported FGM overall prevalence of 69.4% with an unrealistic drop of 21.6% within a period of about five years.
Graphical extrapolations of historical prevalence of FGM (1979 to 2001) have shown a shift in the practice by gradual decline in infibulations and concomitant rise in clitoridectomies.
