A member asked:
I heard that hymens sometimes have natural lacerations in it, is that correct?nd if that's so, how do i know the difference between them and torn ones

Torn Hymen: Yes, a hymenplasty can be performed to repair those that are torn. Usually this is due to cultural needs. The procedure can be performed as an outpatient. Since you are already menstruating, there will always be an opening in your hymen.
