General

The minor procedure can usually be carried out on an outpatient basis.

The hymen of the woman is called the hymen. It is a thin membrane that partially closes the entrance to the vagina.
There is a hole in the middle of the hymen to allow the period blood to drain. The hymen has no special function. It can tear, for example during the first sexual act. However, this can also happen under other circumstances, such as exercising, falling, or using tampons. In some women, the hymen is not intact at birth. If the hymen tears, it can lead to light bleeding. Often the woman doesn't notice anything, neither pain nor bleeding.

reasons

There are no medical reasons for hymen reconstruction as it does not fulfill any biological function. It is mainly desired by Muslims. In this religion, the belief is widespread that the woman must be “pure” at the wedding, which in this case means that she must not have had intercourse before the marriage. On their wedding night they are expected to bleed through their intact hymen, which can be seen on the sheet. It is not uncommon for these sheets to be shown to the family after the night as evidence of the woman's purity. Some in-laws also force their future daughter-in-law to visit a gynecologist to have her virginity proven there.

If a Muslim woman has had intercourse before the wedding, she is often afraid of being rejected by her future husband and by the entire family if they find out. Some even fear honor killing. Since many of these women are of the opinion that on their wedding night it is impossible to hide the fact that they have had sex before, they consider the possibility of hymen reconstruction. This belief is often reinforced by men who claim that they will notice if the woman has previously had sexual experiences.

Many women, however, did not experience their first sexual act by mutual consent, but were victims of rape. In these cases, it is often not just the fear of the future husband and his family that is the reason for the desire for reconstruction, but rather the processing of the trauma.

Errors

There are many fallacies behind the myth of the hymen and virginity. In many women, the hymen is no longer completely intact despite being virgin. Also, it is not possible for the man to feel the hymen rupture during the sexual act. It is not even possible for a gynecologist to clearly prove during an examination whether the woman is a virgin or not.

In addition, despite the intact hymen, it can happen that the woman does not bleed during the first intercourse. This is even the case in about 50%. Even after the procedure and the reconstruction, it cannot be guaranteed with certainty that the woman will bleed during her next sexual act.

preparation

In preparation for the hymen reconstruction, detailed consultations are necessary. It is very important that a doctor is chosen that the woman can trust. During the interviews, it is important to ask about the woman's reasons and expectations. The doctor should educate the patient about the anatomy of the female sex, as there are often unrealistic ideas. It should also be made clear to the woman that hymen reconstruction is no guarantee that she will bleed on the wedding night. The misconception about the proof of virginity is also cleared up.

The patients should be shown alternative ways of deceiving their husbands and convincing them of their virginity. There are several ways to get evidence of blood on the bed sheet. For example, a needle hidden in a wedding dress can be used to prick your finger and thereby bring a drop of blood onto the sheet. There are also capsules that contain blood-like dye that can be inserted into the vagina before sexual intercourse and that will then cause the dye to get onto the sheet.

In addition, many women are afraid that the man might notice that they have already had sex because they are not "tight" enough. Here the gynecologist can provide advice by explaining to women how they can tense the pelvic floor and thus narrow the vaginal entrance.

If the woman decides to restore the hymen in spite of having been informed, as with any other operation, blood-thinning medication (such as Marcumar) must be discontinued. No food should be consumed on the day of the operation.
