How To Confirm If The Hymen Is Intact Or Not?

Posted on Mon, 17 Apr 2017

Question: I want to know if i have a hymen i had never done any intercourse or sex, but when i was about 14 years old i used to insert a piece of tissue paper inside my body during my mensturation because i had not know anything about pads. I attatched some pictures along with this note please help me. For me not being virgin and not bleeding on the night of marrige means death as my culture says so.
Please help me

This is fine

Hi amd welcome.
You don't need to worry. This is annular hymen and it is still preserved so it will bleed during the first intercourse. Wish you good health. Regards

Brief Answer:
nothing to confuse

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

There is hymen, and there is normally a hole in hymen through which menstrual blood passes. This hole may be more or less large in from person to person (women). In your case, this seems a bit larger which may have been caused by what you said before, but still this hole is small enough which will lead to bleeding during first intercourse since penis won't be able to enter easily.

Hope this is clear now.

Regards
