Question 3

my vagina hurts and itches and my hymen is swollen and it pushes outwards and pulses what is going on?? i haven't started my period yet either

Accepted Answer

Imperforate hymen?: If you mean you have never had your first period, this likely means that your hymen has no outlet at all and the blood from your period can't get out.  See your gynecologist right away.

Your GYN can help you with these issues.

puffed up/swollen vaginal opening (might be hymen fringe) when i close my pc muscles, it looks like a flower, because of torn hymen or something else?

Did you have 1st sex: Are you in pain or bleeding? Get a medical exam to know exactly what is going on.

Question 6

hi, so i noticed earlier while shaving that theres a severe blockage in my vaginal opening. i dont believe its my hymen, ive yet to break that, even with a toy. its like swollen flesh that is completely blocking lentrance to my vaginal opening?

Accepted Answer

: If you are having normal menses the entrance is not blocked. To assess what you are asking about will require an in-person exam.

Question 7

for the last couple of days my hymen has been really itchy and my labia is abit swollen! what could be the cause? no discharge at all!

Accepted Answer

Yeast?: Yeast is the most common cause of itching. Yeast creams are available over the counter. If that does not work then you will need to schedule a visit for testing.

Question 8

by vaginal bleeding i think it is from my hymen? my urethra is swollen. the vaginal irritation is around my vaginal opening. i have been getting discharge from my urthera and my vaginal opening (i was ovulating)

Accepted Answer

Vaginal infection ?: If you have been sexually active, these symptoms should be evaluated by an exam and testing by your gyn  or family medical provider.  Even if you have not had sexual contact, see your physician for testing.

Question 9

what is a hymen?

Accepted Answer

It's the border: It's where the vagina meets the vulva, and can be seen by girls and teens using a mirror. Young women may be judged by their happiness, their friendliness, and many other wonderful traits, but not by the condition of their hymens. It makes absolutely no difference whether a person has a big hymen, little hymen, broken hymen, or no hymen at all, as long as mucus or menstrual blood can flow through.

Question 10

can horseback rideing brake my hymen?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is possible: Unless your hymen is very thick.
