What is the Hymenoplasty?
A surgery that enables in restoring a ruptured hymen is also known as Hymenoplasty. Hymen is a symbol of purity in many cultures whereas scientific evidences suggest that this thin membrane was meant to keep out infection in the vagina. Although a hymen is a sign of virginity, it can get ruptured due to non-sexual reasons such as running, jumping or any other form of athletic activities; some women are also born without a hymen!
Our hospital is located in europian side of Istanbul. 15 minutes driving distance from the airport. All processes are practised by gynecologist and accompanied by anesthetics experts.
Hymenoplasty can be done in two ways – if the remnants of the hymen are present, then it can be stitched back together. The second option is to reconstruct a new hymen using tissues from the patient’s body. Along with restoring the hymen, you can also get the vaginal walls tightened. This surgery will repair the hymen, but you will experience bleedingand discomfort the next time it ruptures.
