Hello,
I’m a 21-year-old woman, and I’m really struggling with some personal issues surrounding my sexual health. I’m sure that female genital mutilation (FGM) was performed on me when I was a child (around 4 years old), but I can’t remember the details. I never asked my parents about it, and I’m not sure how to approach them about it now.
As I’ve tried to explore my body on my own, I’ve found that I can’t experience pleasure. Instead, I feel overwhelmed within seconds, and my genital area becomes very sensitive and tingly. It’s been affecting my mental health, and I’m feeling really confused and lost about all of it. I can’t remember any conversations with my mom about the procedure, but I know something isn’t right.
I’m reaching out because I need help understanding if anyone here has experienced something similar. I’m struggling to process this and don’t know where to turn. Any advice, resources, or shared experiences would mean the world to me.
Thank you for your support.
