How do you know if your hymen is still there?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If you do have a hymen, you probably can't see or feel it. It's basically impossible to see your hymen yourself

Understanding the Hymen:
- The hymen is a thin tissue that varies greatly in appearance and thickness among individuals.
- It can stretch or tear from activities like sports, tampon use, or medical exams, not just sexual activity.
-
Self-Examination:
- It's difficult to determine if the hymen is intact by self-examination, which can be uncomfortable.
-
Professional Guidance:
- Consult a healthcare provider, such as a gynecologist, for concerns about hymen or vaginal health.
- They can offer a private examination and address any questions.
-
Key Consideration:
- The hymen's state is not a reliable indicator of virginity or sexual activity. Prioritize health and comfort.

How are ovarian fibroids treated?
The treatment plan for fibroids will depend on how the symptoms are affecting your daily life, and your body's ability to function normally, or whether you plan to have children. Your gynaecologist may adopt a watch-and-wait approach to see if medication can relieve your symptoms.If you are planning to conceive, medication may be prescribed to help shrink the fibroids or a procedure known as myomectomy may be recommended to remove them.
