Today we will visit several harems in our land and witness what was happening behind the closed doors of a harem infirmary. Historically, harem infirmaries served as specialized medical quarters within a palace complex, dedicated to the healthcare and treatment of the women residing there. These facilities were managed by female practitioners, including midwives and traditional doctors, who oversaw everything from general illness treatment to reproductive health, childbirth, and the practice of female genital modification and circumcision.Upon entering the harem, every newly admitted woman—regardless of her background or physique—underwent a rigorous physical examination, detailed measurement, and formal documentation. A central component of this intake process was the explicit evaluation of her external anatomy to ensure compliance with the precise aesthetic and structural standards established by the Pasha's authority. While some rulers preferred the women to remain anatomically unaltered, others mandated specific surgical modifications. These interventions primarily involved the partial or complete excision of the clitoris and the labia. These intimate anatomical alterations were performed exclusively by specialized female practitioners who possessed the traditional medical training required for the task. To ensure compliance with religious and administrative expectations, an imam from the local mosque was frequently present during the process to inspect the altered anatomy and officially approve the final results of the surgery.
