What Is a Hymenoplasty?

Hymenoplasty is a procedure that works to cosmetically repair, restore, or reconstruct a woman’s hymen. As the membrane that is in place to partially close the opening of the vagina, the hymen can become ripped or stretched due to anything from tampon insertion to sexual intercourse, and even vigorous exercise. Restoration of the hymen through hymenoplasty is a relatively simple surgical procedure. Our surgeons will work very carefully to cut away any torn skin around the edges of the hymen, where we will then gently stitch together the remaining tissue to leave a small, like-new vaginal opening.

Reasons for Getting a Hymenoplasty

There are many physical and psychological reasons a woman may want to undergo a hymenoplasty, including the following:

Reclaiming Control–It is an unfortunate truth that many women who seek out hymen reconstruction have been victims of sexual assault. This not only leaves women with physiological issues out of their control, but it also leaves a lingering feeling that they were robbed of the choice to present an intact hymen to the person of their choosing. Hymenoplasty offers these women a physical restoration and may also be able to provide some much-needed psychological comfort and healing as well.

Cultural Beliefs– An intact hymen is still important in many cultures. Many women come to us for a hymenoplasty so they can provide this traditional indication of purity or virginity to their spouse for their upcoming nuptials.

Enhancement of Sexual Pleasure–As a result of childbirth, as well as the natural aging process, many women may experience weakening of their vaginal muscles. Hymenoplasty works to effectively tighten these muscles, creating a small and intact space that is more easily stimulated through sexual activity.

Imperforate or Microperforate Hymen– This is a congenital disorder where the vaginal opening is entirely (imperforate) or partially (microperforate) covered by the hymen. The hymenoplasty procedure to correct this condition involves creating an adequately sized hole in the membrane to allow proper menstrual flow.

Septate Hymen– In some cases, a woman is born with a hymen that has a band of extra tissue in the middle that creates two small vaginal openings instead of one. Since this condition prevents efficient tampon use or penile penetration, many women find reconstruction through hymenoplasty a necessary cosmetic procedure.
