Hosted by WeMidwives using #WeMidwives

This chat is guest hosted by @FGMSisterStudy

Female genital mutilation (FGM) involves the partial or complete removal of, or injury to, the external female genitalia for non-medical reasons. The WHO has classified FGM into four main types. Type 3 (infibulation) is the most extensive and often requires deinfibulation (opening surgery). Over 200 million women and girls live with female genital mutilation (FGM) globally, with around 10% living with the effects of type 3 FGM. Despite the fact that there are no health benefits to FGM and that it has immediate and life-long health, obstetric, sexual functioning, psychosocial, and economic impacts, FGM continues to be practiced in many countries. In the UK, FGM is identified increasingly amongst migrants from FGM-affected countries, with 137,000 women and girls reported as currently living with the consequences. The annual cost of NHS care for FGM-survivors is estimated at £100 million. There has been relatively slow progress in the development of evidence-based care to improve health outcomes for FGM-survivors, in particular, around the optimal timing of deinfibulation. 

The FGM Sister Study is a large qualitative study that aims to explore and understand: (1) the timing preferences for deinfibulation surgery amongst FGM survivors, male partners, and healthcare professionals; and (2) how to improve NHS FGM services for type 3 FGM survivors and their families. 

Further details can be found on our website at https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/  and we can be tweeted via @FGMSisterStudy

The main FGM Sister Study research team consists of Principal Investigator Dr Laura Jones (@drlauraljones), Research Fellow Dr Benjamin Costello (@DrBenCostello), Research Fellow Emma Danks (@DanksEmma), and Study Co-ordinator Fiona Cross-Sudworth (@FSudworth).

Funding statement: this study is funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Health Technology Assessment (project reference 16/78/04). The views expressed are those of the author(s) and not necessarily those of the NIHR or the Department of Health and Social Care.

@WeMidwives @FGMSisterStudy I actually haven't worked with any women who have disclosed #FGM it's an area that I feel is vital for us to be sensitive of and to understand the implications for women. I think it's important to create the spaces where women feel comfortable to disclose #wemidwives
@FGMSisterStudy

@MhairiMcLellan @WeMidwives Too true - you've raised a really important point. How do we create comfortable spaces to support disclosure? #wemidwives

@WeMidwives @FGMSisterStudy #WeMidwives Q1 . used to meet women during labour who may have undergone some form of #FGM that they may not have disclosed (prior)this was difficult for the woman but as a midwife my role was to support the woman but also consider the child especially if a girl #safeguarding https://t.co/3PqEtSXvZn

10 October 2019 20:08
@FGMSisterStudy @WeMidwives I think as well as having knowledge about #FGM itself, it comes down to relationships. Like so many things in midwifery, a trusting relationship that is unhurried where women are genuinely listened to starts to create safe spaces where women can be heard #wemidwives

@DrBenCostello @WeMidwives @FGMSisterStudy I see both aspects as equally important- supporting the woman through labour is the priority at that time then supporting the woman to understand why safeguarding is crucial for the daughter #WeMidwives Q1 - midwives also require stringent support and care

@FSudworth @FGMSisterStudy @WeMidwives Q1 #wemidwives very true, I think sometimes #FGM isn't the terminology some woman would use so generally I and the midwives I've worked with ask about any cutting or piercing as well as using the term FGM, but even then some women may not connect that as what happened to them

@FSudworth @FGMSisterStudy @WeMidwives Q1 #wemidwives I absolutely agree, I think many women might not feel comfortable to disclose at booking but through time and building a relationship with a midwife may be more likely to, the topic can be brought up again at a later time.

@WeMidwives @FGMSisterStudy Q2 #wemidwives this is an area that I'm actually not sure about, is it better for this to happen as early as possible after disclosure? I suppose as with all things when and by whom the woman feels most comfortable is paramount. I would be interested to know what others think.

@FSudworth I think that all midwives practising in the UK are up to date with the legislation. It was part of our mandatory training every year @GSTTnhs beyond this, there's not much we can do I think ?? #wemidwives

@WeMidwives Q5 #wemidwives personally I would like to see qualitative research on the experiences of survivors accessing maternity care as well as those who have gone through deinfibulation. What was good, what could be improved.

@WeMidwives Q5 #wemidwives additionally I would also like to see qualitative research on the experiences of midwives (and other maternity HCPs), how do they feel about talking to women about #FGM, how do they support, do they have enough support themselves?? #endFGM
