What is the Hymen?

The hymen is at the entrance of the vagina and is located approximately 1.5-2mm inside. It may be located further inside in some overweight patients. Among the people, the rupture of the hymen is defined as "degradation of the hymen, the loss of the maiden, the loss of virginity, the explosion of the hymen, the loss of virginity".

How to Tell if the Hymen is Disrupted?

The hymen has a very important place today. Divorces, fights and even murder is a phenomenon that leads to social events. In fact, the blows taken to the vagina, finger intervention, getting closer by friction can damage the hymen. The clearest answer to the question of whether the hymen is ruptured or if virginity has been lost is understood through an examination by an experienced gynecologist .

Hymen Examination

Whether the hymen is broken or not can be understood easily and painlessly with the virginity examination . It never damages the existing hymen structure. Sometimes patients want to do this themselves, so they want to understand whether it is spoiled or not. They can see the hymen in the appropriate position, but it is not possible for them to clearly understand whether it is damaged or not.

Hymen Disruption

The hymen is damaged due to reasons such as sexual intercourse, hard masturbation, insertion of an object through the vagina, and accident. However, in some cases, women cannot fully decide whether the hymen is damaged or not. If you are asking the question of how to understand if the hymen is damaged, you should first consult your gynecologist to see if you have symptoms of impairment and for a clear answer.

The most important symptom of hymen degradation is bleeding, when the hymen is disrupted for the first time or for any reason, there may be some bleeding because its integrity is disrupted, but this bleeding depends entirely on the hymen structure. Bleeding types that are red, light pink, sometimes lasting 1-2 hours, sometimes wiped off, and sometimes extended up to a few days are possible. Sometimes the membrane structure is flexible or almost flexible and no bleeding occurs. The opposite is also possible, sometimes there is bleeding, but there is only damage to the membrane. As I mentioned above, the only way to understand this clearly is through a gynecological examination. In addition, other signs that indicate that the hymen is broken are; It is a burning-like tingling at the entrance of the vagina, a pulling down feeling in the groin and a mild pain.

Does the hymen break easily?

The hymen is a membrane structure formed by mucosal folds with a thickness of 1-3 mm and an average diameter of 2-3 cm, located 1.5-2 cm from the vagina entrance. It is very similar to the oral mucosa structure in terms of structure. There is a 1-1.5 cm diameter hole in the middle. There is a small amount of vascular and nerve tissue in the hymen. In fact, the hymen does not have a known physiological function. During infancy and childhood, it covers the vaginal blood a little and acts as a barrier against the entry of microorganisms. There is no such thing as the hymen bleeding after the first intercourse. The possibility of bleeding increases with recurrent relationships. The blood that comes out with the rupture of the membrane sometimes accumulates in the vagina as soon as it comes out, and in the following days it manifests itself as a dark brown, muddy bleeding or clot.

The hymen is not a structure that loses its integrity very easily. Masturbation, sexual intimacy with friction method, superficial touch, touching the vagina through underwear do not cause any deterioration in the hymen. In order to say that my membrane is broken, tears descending from the center to the base must occur in such a way that the order of the 1.5-2 cm ring in the middle is disturbed. This is only possible with a penis, a hard object entering the vagina. Rarely, in friction, even if your peniz does not enter completely by accident, it may cause damage to the hymen and sometimes tears. Not every hymen degradation will cause bleeding, and every bleeding does not necessarily mean that the hymen is broken. Sometimes, in patients with bleeding, it is determined that there is only damage to the membrane and its integrity is not impaired.

How Much Fingers Penetrate the Hymen?

The hymen is an anatomical structure within 2-3 cm of the vagina, with a hollow in the middle, weak from the vascular and neural network, and the space in the middle, which resembles the oral mucosa structure in terms of structure, approximately 1.5 cm. Penetration of a penis, finger or any other object may cause rupture of the membrane. Although the perspective of the hymen changes in every society, it symbolizes the virginity, purity and cleanliness, virginity in our society. A girl is taught that, from the moment she knows herself, she does not see her own hymen and does not know what it is like, that it is something equivalent to honor to protect.

In fact, the only purpose of the existence of the hymen is to prevent the entrance of microbes at the entrance of the vagina until the girl completes the puberty period. There is a common belief that the hymen can deteriorate very easily. In our society, it is not possible to disrupt the hymen by clitoral masturbation, by friction with the partner, by pressing while on underwear, by stroking from the outside or by touching with fingers.

Let's come to the issue of finger penetration; The hymen has many forms, the most common form being annular, the others; The half moon forms are cribriform, septal, microperforated and imperforate forms. Imperforate Hymen does not have a natural opening that should be in the middle, and it manifests itself with the first menstruation of young girls and the absence of menstrual blood. In other words, it is almost impossible to puncture even with a finger, not with superficial contact, it is necessary to open it with surgical methods.

In other types, the deterioration of the hymen with fingers depends entirely on the membrane structure. While the membrane sometimes does not deteriorate with the penetration of even two fingers in the wide ring-shaped membranes, the hymen can be disrupted with the advancement of one finger 3-4 cm in microperforated or cribriform membranes. Therefore, the answer to the question of how much the finger enters the hymen can be given by knowing the hymen structure of the person completely.
