- W3004254003 abstract "Background Arizona has a longstanding history of resettling Somali refugees in the United States affected by FGC. Critical gaps and barriers exist in health care related to caring for women and girls affected by FGC. This study seeks to understand community perceptions about FGC, defibulation and general perceptions of receiving healthcare in the United States. Methods Six focus groups were conducted in Arizona, USA, using trained community mobilizers. Focus groups were comprised of seven women, divided by generational status. The study included both ethnic and Bantu Somali women aged 15 and older. A semi-structured guide facilitated discussions. Qualitative data was analyzed deductively for descriptive themes related to FGC, defibulation, and provider patient relations. Results Forty-two women participated. Women expressed concerns about discussing scar management with their primary doctor, citing a perceived lack of provider knowledge. Self-image intersected with the appearance of genitalia before and after defibulation, and strong preferences were voiced. The importance of health advocates when navigating patient-provider communication was highlighted. Discussion Results of this study underscore the importance of defibulation in the lives of this study population. Potential community and provider-level interventions to improve services to FGC-affected communities are recommended.
