Tema extremadamente complejo, delicado y politizado, difícil de entender a través de definiciones normativas, clasificaciones y delimitaciones geográficas. Su desconocimiento, por parte de los profesionales de la salud, puede contribuir a un manejo inadecuado de las pacientes. El trabajo tiene como objetivo argumentar sobre aspectos socioculturales de la Mutilación Genital Femenina, esenciales para su manejo integral por el profesional de la salud. Se recomienda el enfoque, llamado &#8220;las cinco P&#8221;: prevalencia, prevención, protección, persecución y provisión de servicios. Además, se deben evitar las actitudes de reproche o victimización hacia la paciente, así como no promover la medicalización de la práctica.]]></p></abstract>

Complex topic, the fact that was politicized, difficult to understand through normative definitions, classifications and geographical delimitation. Its ignorance, on the part of the professionals of the health, can contribute to an inadequate handling of the patients, as part of their integral attention. The work takes as an objective to argue on sociocultural aspects of the Feminine Genital Mutilation, essential for its integral handling for the health professional. The approach, called &#8220;five P&#8221; is recommended: predominance, prevention, protection, pursuit and provision of services. Moreover, the reproach attitudes must be avoided or victimization towards the patient, expression of a euro-central and paternalistic look towards the different, unexpected or unknown; as well as not to promote the medicalization of the practice.]]></p></abstract>
