My hymen hurts badly during intercourse. Do I need surgery for better sexual life?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have seen the attachment. (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

You have an anterior lunar, the opening of the hymen is more posterior, but it does not mean you have to undergo a surgery for defloration. For further information perform an examination by a gynecologist.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

From the photo, (attachment removed to protect patient identity), I could see that the open of your hymen is more posterior that means near to the perineal surface and also the membrane covers almost all the anterior part of introitus which may be the cause of a difficulty penetration. Only the imperforate hymen which cause an obstruction of the menstrual flow needs surgery (this is a pathological condition), in which the woman cannot even menstruate. If you have normal bleeding flow during menstruation that means your hymenal membrane is normally perforated. The hymenal membrane varies from women to women some has thicker and fibrous tissues, the other thinner, more vasculated or less. Some women experience bleeding and some not, some experience pain and some not. It depends on the characteristic of your membrane that cannot be evaluated only from one photo. The gynecological examination, put the women in dorsolithotomy position and offer a doctor the possibility to examine you with detail and can visualize the opening of the hymen. You can try with a lubrification liquid to make the process softly.

I hope this helps.
