PATIENT PROFILE
Women who wish to restore the hymen.
PROCEDURE
The hymen is composed of fibrous and elastic tissue furrowed by small vessels. When it ruptures, slight bleeding occurs. The cause of hymen rupture is usually sexual activity, although it has been demonstrated that in some unusual circumstances it can be ruptured by inserting a tampon; practicing sports such as cycling, horseback riding or gymnastics, or even spontaneously.
There are three types of hymenoplasty:
- Early repair: a hymenal tear is sutured within 15 to 20 days after rupture.
- Reconstruction of the hymen from the caruncles or membranous vestiges. This is the most common technique.
- Creation of a new membrane by means of a vaginal mucosal portion. This technique can also be combined with the previous one.
DURATION OF THE INTERVENTION
