Does A Ruptured Hymen Gets Back To The Original Shape After A Long Period?
Question: I need to know if there is any scientific research on hymen recovery. I want to know if the hymen recovers after intercourse or not. I have heard and read that when women do not have intercourse for a very long time, their hymen recovers and it may seem as she is a virgin again.
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
No, the hymen once ruptured cannot get back to its original shape.
If one does not have intercourse for a longer period, the vaginal orifice may be tight but cannot get the same hymen.
If you are having further queries you can write back.
Best wishes
