Description
Surgeries or other medical treatments performed, typically on newborn babies or children, to "normalize" the patient's reproductive or sexual anatomy and force their body to conform to medical or social expectations for what is male or female. IGM practices can be performed for cultural, social, or religious reasons. Though they are typically justified through a medical lens, IGM practices are medically unnecessary and non-consensual.
