Hymen Restoration
Hymen restoration surgery or Hymenoplasty is a simple surgical procedure used for reconstructing the hymen of women who need to have their virginity restored mostly for cultural or religious reasons.
The surgery restores virginity after the hymen has been ruptured during rape, agreed intercourse, insertion of tampons, sports, falls, etc. It can be performed soon after the rupture or much later.
If the hymeneal remnants are not big enough to be used for the reconstruction or if you are one of those women who are born without a hymen, the surgeon can reduce the opening of the vagina using a small portion of the vaginal mucous tissue. During the first intercourse, there will be a small rupture of this newly reconstructed hymen that will be very similar to the rupture of a natural hymen .
Hymenoplasty generally takes about one to two hours, with patients able to return to work the next day. Restoration of the hymen is done on an outpatient basis, under local anesthesia or sedation. Prior to surgery, patients are required to have a pre-surgical consultation and thorough gynecological examination. During this time, she should communicate her needs and expectations to the doctor.
