Virginity Repair Surgery

These day, virginity repair or restoration surgery, or medically termed as hymenoplasty, becomes quite popular among women. There are many websites on the internet, like revirgination.net, that offer many benefits and ease to this vagina plastic surgery. Many of them come with reasons, such as to make their boyfriend or husband happy with the sexual intercourse they have, and so on. Virginity repair surgery or hymenoplasty (or sometimes called as hymenorrhaphy) today is undergone by women from old to young and from many different countries and rages.

BBC interviews a surgeon that is able to perform hymenoplasty. Dr. Abecassis, the surgeon, recalls that in a week, he could perform two or three hymenoplasties. The patients vary from all kind of social backgrounds, but most of them are young women with age about 23-27. Mostly, their reasons are about the need of virginity before getting married with their boyfriends because virginity becomes an important thing based on their traditions or family cultures. Dr. Abecassis admits that he never judges whether certain patient really has to undergo the surgery or not; he just does his task. For the record, Dr. Abecassis is one of very few Arab surgeons who want to talk openly about it.

For Dr. Abecassis, vagina repair surgery is both a mere medical plastic surgery and a taboo reinforcement. But for his patients, hymenoplasty is surely the only option—that makes them happy. Hymenoplasty is proven to be low risk, but still it is quite expensive. The high cost of the surgery sometimes make another non-medical procedure become an interesting alternative. BBC reported that there is a website that markets Chinese-made artificial hymens for only £20 or about 23 euors. It is created with elastic plastic and filled with fake blood, so once it it inserted in the vaginas, after the first penetration the woman can drip blood out of her vagina just to simulate virginity. The problem with this is that many married couple will agree the wrong definition about hymen and virginity—that somehow, torn hymen is not always caused by sexual penetration premarriage.

This is proven in an interview to a young man, who admitted that although the society accepts that virginity is not in tact in making decision before marriage, he refused to marry such a woman with lack of virginity.

A website called NewHymen.dk gives a more arguable explanation about this situation. It suggests that women do not have to feel that hymenoplasty is the only option available to repair their torn hymen. This website was created and run by a woman who admits as “a nurse, a social worker, and a professional educator”. It gives several explanations that are against the old formula and taboo like using chicken livers due to the infection whatsoever. It even suggests the readers to ask for some pill prescription to doctor—or if the readers are currently consuming the pill, it suggests them to plan their period to match the first night after marriage. This is a little bit pragmatic, actually, but it comprehends the gap between the feeling of guilty that women had and the reasonable solution to fight it.

That being said, an alternative—a heart-pleasing alternative—to young women is already available with the presence of these kinds of sites. There is an available solution to deal with their past and heal the wound and fear about family culture or men’s perception. The good thing from these websites is, like in a forum where a member—a young woman—wrote about what she feels about this virginity problem, they provide solution to see that hymenoplasty is not the only choice.

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.
