This survey is part of a study to better understand FGC-affected women’s interests, motivations, and expectations in electing to undergo clitoral reconstructive surgery in Canada. The aims of the research are the following:
To develop a greater understanding of FGC-affected women’s interests, motivations, and/or expectations in electing to undergo clitoral reconstructive surgery
To identify how well FGC-affected women’s surgical outcomes meet their initial expectations
To improve the referral process for FGC-affected women who wish to undergo clitoral reconstructive surgery
To highlight the importance of quality care for FGC-affected women
This survey is open to FGC-affected women who have undergone clitoral reconstructive surgery (CRS), those who have not yet undergone the procedure but are interested in doing so, and those who have chosen not to undergo CRS. The survey is split into several sections: demographics, interest in CRS, and experience with CRS. The questions are asked in multiple choice format, some ranking, and a few open-ended questions.
