I am worried about my hymen. I want to be able to know whether it s still intact without having to go to a gynecologist. I have never had a sexual relationship, but I am worried I might have lost it in a physical activity. My hymen is of the round type, but my vaginal opening is a bit large. How do I make sure my hymen is there?

How To Know If The Hymen Is Broken?
Hello, Hymen surrounds vaginal like a thin rim with an opening at the centre to allow the flow of menstrual blood. It is difficult to visualize/feel hymen through self-examination. Moreover, the presence or absence of hymen does not affirm virginity. Daily activities, athletic activities etc can tear the hymen in many women. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Lekshmi Rita Venugopal, General & Family Physician
