In 2019, nearly half of female victims of rape or attempted rape had not sought professional help after the incident. Just under a third of these victims had consulted a doctor, and 28 percent had consulted a psychologist or psychiatrist. Only ten percent of victims decided to meet with members of an association or to call a victim support service.
That same year, the French security services recorded more than 20,000 cases of rape against women.
