A member asked:
Is it possible to have my hymen removed by a doctor or even by myself? what would the process entail procedurally and financially?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why? : Occasionally a hymenectomy needs to be done but this is rarely needed. If menstrual blood comes out of your vagina or if you can insert a finger into your vagina then you are not likely to need this surgery. Schedule an exam to address your concern.
