Hymen repair surgery, also known as hymenoplasty, is a simple procedure that will repair a torn hymen or build a hymen that is not present. It is important to understand that the surgery will not restore virginity, but it will allow for women to tear and bleed the first time they engage in intercourse after surgery.

My mom has a left ovary endometriotic cyst measuring 32x24 mm with internal echoes inside it. There's also a bulky uterus with multiple fibroids around 32x26 mm and an endometriotic lesion on the posterior wall about 24x14 mm. Should she consider surgery for this or are there other options?
