3Reasons for Hymenoplasty
There are different reasons women opt for hymenoplasty. Women from cultures where the hymen is venerated are made to see their virginity as a gift they must offer to the one most befitting of it. Most often this person is the one they get married to. And the proof of their virginity and innocence is the intact hymen which would be broken on their wedding night. In such scenario, if the hymen is broken unintentionally or due to abuse, they are more likely to seek a hymenoplasty. Other reasons for hymenoplasty include:
• Traumatic sexual assault can prompt a woman to seek a hymen repair as a way to re-enact control over her own sexuality and perhaps, grant her another chance at being a virgin since she didn’t intentionally lose her virginity in the first place.
• Some women who have had their hymen accidentally ruptured due to some physical activity, such as horse riding, may seek to repair their hymen on grounds that they had lost it in an unacceptable manner.
• Due to congenital defect in the hymen, maybe blocking menstrual flow later in puberty.
• Some women who would like to present the hymen as a gift to their husbands on their wedding night, may also wish to get a ruptured hymen repaired before the wedding.
There are many other reasons for which women undergo hymenoplasty, you can look them up later. [3]
