Hymenoplasty (restoration of virginity)

The operation belongs to the section of aesthetic gynecology, therefore there are no strict medical indications for its performance. Whether it is necessary to restore virginity, the woman decides on her own.

Most often, patients come to a hymenoplasty operation with the following requests:

• desire to diversify intimate life and bring new sensations into it;
• adherence to religious or national traditions;
• the need for reconstruction of the hymen after accidental injuries, forced entry, operations on the genitals.

The low cost of the operation to restore the hymen and its low trauma cause the increasing interest of women in this procedure. Whatever the reasons for contacting a gynecologist, the doctor will keep them secret, treat the situation with understanding and benevolence.

In gynecology, there are 2 options for restoring virginity:

1. Short-term hymenoplasty. During the procedure, the doctor sutures the remains of the hymen with self-absorbable sutures to form a temporary mucous membrane in the vagina.
2. Long-term hymenoplasty. From the vaginal mucosa, the surgeon forms a three-layer membrane that replaces the natural hymen.

The cost of short-term restoration of virginity is much lower, but the result lasts for 10-14 days. Then the suture material is resorbed, and the vaginal tissue returns to its original form. The effect of long-term plastic surgery is not limited. Among the disadvantages of this option, it is worth highlighting the higher price and the need for rehabilitation.

Before performing hymenoplasty at the Dobrobut MN clinic, each patient undergoes an extended gynecological examination. In addition to examining the cervix and taking vaginal smears, the doctor prescribes a set of blood and urine tests, tests for HIV and viral hepatitis. From instrumental methods, an ECG and chest X-ray may be required. Diagnostic is necessary to exclude contraindications to surgical intervention.

It should be borne in mind that the preoperative complex of analyzes is not included in the cost of hymenoplasty in Kyiv. The method of anesthesia chosen by the doctor is also paid separately.

The recovery period is required only after long-term hymenoplasty. The patient spends the first day in the clinic under the round-the-clock supervision of medical personnel. Full rehabilitation during hymen repair takes up to 3 weeks. During this period, there are some rules:

• regular hygiene of the genitals with the use of antiseptics;
• exclusion of prolonged sitting in the first 7 days after surgery;
• refusal to swim in open water bodies and pools for 2 weeks;
• restriction of sexual activity for 3 weeks;
• adding more fresh vegetables and fruits rich in fiber to the diet to prevent constipation;
• refusal of physical activity for complete healing of tissues.
