Pre & Post-Operative Program

Comprehensive Care Beyond Surgery

Sexual Health & Therapeutic Guidance

Sexual health education and therapy are also an important part of Clitoraid’s post-operative program.

Women who undergo clitoral restorative surgery often benefit from guidance to help them:

  • Understand their reconstructed anatomy

  • Learn how to safely and comfortably explore sensation

  • Adjust emotionally to changes in their bodies

Many patients have been conditioned since childhood to associate guilt or shame with their sexual needs. Therapeutic support helps them navigate this transition with confidence and self-respect.

Psychological
Support

Female Genital Mutilation is a severe form of childhood trauma. For many patients, psychological counseling is a crucial part of the healing process.

Clitoraid encourages access to professional psychological support both before and after surgery to help patients:

  • Address emotional trauma

  • Reduce anxiety and fear related to the procedure

  • Support long-term mental and emotional health

This support is offered with sensitivity, respect, and cultural awareness.

A Specialized Post-Operative Program

Because many survivors of FGM have never experienced pleasure through clitoral stimulation, Clitoraid collaborated with sexologists and psychologists to design a dedicated post-operative support program.

This program addresses both:

  • Physical aspects, related to healing and bodily awareness

  • Psychological aspects, including emotional adjustment and self-perception

The goal is to support each woman’s individual healing journey in a safe, informed, and compassionate way.

A Holistic Approach to Healing

Clitoraid believes that true healing requires a holistic approach—one that respects each woman’s personal experience, choices, and pace.

Surgery, counseling, and education work together to help patients move forward with dignity, autonomy, and improved quality of life.
