Hymenoplasty (Revirginisation procedure)

Hymenoplasty is the term to refer a vagina plastic surgery that aims to repair broken hymen inside a woman’s vagina. Many patient do this surgery as a form of virginity repair and most of them do it some days before wedding. The point of hymenoplasty is to pierce together the tear of the hymen. But, before hymen reconstruction is performed, surgeons have to approximate if the hymenal remnants inside the vagina are sufficient to be repaired. If not, surgeons may consider using sompe part of vaginal flap. It then creates a vascular band across the introitus. Of course, patient will be put under anesthetic just like normal surgery. It is short because it only takes about one or two hours.

Hymenoplasty is no doubt a virginity repair surgery. Many cultural, religious, or social norms are against this surgery because they believe hymen is not a proof of virginity. Therefore, hymenoplasty is just mere to make the patient looks virginal, not bring back her virginity like in the first place. But, there are also other social or family values that insist of having the bride’s vagina bleeding after the first penetration in the first night after wedding. Whatever reasons of the patient to undergo a hymenoplasty, hymenoplasty is a medically safe surgery as long as each procedures are done carefully.

All women can be patients of hymenoplasty. Whether their hymens were torn due to premarital sexual intercourse or just unintentionally torn because of some accidents, hymenoplasty can be performed. However, there is only one condition that disallow women to do hymenoplasty. That is if she suffered from some venereal disease.

Several reasons of a woman performing hymenoplasty, are:

• As a woman ages, the vagina muscles get loose and elongated. Some women do not want to be in this condition. Therefore, some of them prefer having hymenoplasty to deal with this aging problem.
• Hymen is actually one reason that makes your sexual activity with your partner becomes more satisfying. Maybe you and your partner want to enjoy a coitus just like when you were a virgin? Here, hymenoplasty gives a solution.
• Just like previously said, some women had their hymens torn not because of sexual penetration. Instead, they had it because of sexual abuse, rape, or other accidents. Hymenoplasty can heal the wound of these accidents so that everything would be back as if they weren’t happened.
• Re-marriage is also another cause of hymenoplasty. Some cultures insist a widow to perform hymenoplasty before she remarriages to another man, because they believe that virginity only belongs to the husband.

The advantages of hymenoplasty? Of course, the patient’s hymen will be tighten up just like a virgin. But what is it for? Hymen can give a more pleasure sensation to a woman during sexual intercourse. She will feel fuller inside her vagina and she has a bigger probability to have orgasm. Moreover, hymenoplasty is performed in relatively short time (and the recovery time is also short).

After undergoing this virginity repair surgery, a woman must take care of herself. This includes a slight change in her lifestyle. She has to make sure that no outer accident happened and tore her hymen, except after sexual intercourse. She musts keep her vagina clean. Remember, although the recovery time of hymenoplasty is relatively short, always wait for some reasonable time before doing sexual activity. It is to make sure that the wound after surgery is completely healed. Avoid hardworking or lifting heavy things for about a week after hymenoplasty because hymen is prone to be torn again because of the pressure within the vagina.
