Understanding the Hymen and Its Reconstruction

The hymen is a mucous membrane located at the vaginal opening. Traditionally, it's believed that the hymen tears during the first sexual intercourse, but this is not always the case. The hymen varies greatly in form, from almost closed to a narrow seam, which means not every hymen tears during intercourse. Despite the outdated view that an intact hymen indicates virginity, in some socio-cultural circles, it's still considered essential for marriage. Hymenoplasty offers a solution for women facing pressure due to this belief, allowing them to regain personal freedom.

Hymenoplasty at Traumpraxis am Alstertor

At Traumpraxis am Alstertor, we specialize in hymen reconstruction, also known as hymenoplasty. This straightforward procedure involves narrowing the mucosal seam at the vaginal entrance to restore the hymen. The result is bleeding during sexual intercourse, which can be seen as proof of virginity. Our experienced specialists in aesthetic and plastic surgery will provide a thorough consultation before the procedure. The surgery itself takes less than 60 minutes, and you can resume your daily activities immediately afterward. It’s crucial to schedule the procedure at least 6-8 weeks before a planned wedding to allow full healing and for the stitches to dissolve. During the healing period, avoid sports that put pressure on the hymen, such as horse riding, cycling, or doing splits.
