It is often used when a person has a hymen that is abnormally thick, septate, or otherwise obstructing the flow of menstruation imperforate hymen.
When the hymen only has a small opening a microperforate hymen , the surgery can be used to alleviate pain and discomfort. The hymen is a membrane near the opening of the vagina. When it forms normally, it is thin and can be easily "broken.
In most cases, an opening will naturally be made in the hymen through one of several normal activities in a young person's life. Using a tampon, masturbating, and vaginal intercourse are the most frequent ways the hymen is "broken. Any injury or trauma to the area can also affect the membrane and may cause additional health issues, such as those associated with scar tissue.
Some people are born with a hymen that is not easily broken. If a person has an abnormally thicken or tough hymen, the opening needed to allow menstrual effluent to flow freely may not be created. People may also be born with an imperforate hymen, which completely obstructs the vaginal opening, or a septate hymen, in which a band of tissue prevents the membrane from separating completely to create an adequate opening.
A person can also be born with a microperforated hymen, in which an opening is made, but it is too small. Often, a congenital condition causing an imperforate hymen is diagnosed at birth. However, this is not always the case and the condition may not become apparent until around the time a person would begin to menstruate. An intact hymen can make it difficult if not impossible for a person to use a tampon or have vaginal intercourse without pain.
Other symptoms that a person with a condition affecting their hymen may experience include:. If a person is found to have a condition affecting the hymen, surgery is usually necessary. While hymenectomy is considered a minor surgical procedure, every surgery comes with risks. Your healthcare team will go over these risks with you before you have the procedure. If you have any questions or do not understand the risks, talk to your healthcare provider and share any worries you may have.
You will receive anesthesia , sedation, and other forms of medication. Your healthcare team will likely ask about any medications you take, even vitamins or supplements, to ensure they will not be affected by the medicine you need for surgery.
If you have any other health conditions, especially those that affect how your body clots blood, you may need to take other precautions prior to surgery. In the weeks and days leading up to your surgery, if you are sick or get an infection, let your healthcare provider know.
You may not need to postpone your surgery, but it is best to let them know if you have been ill. Your body may need extra time to heal or you may need to take antibiotics before or after the procedure. The surgery itself usually takes less than one hour.
However, you will likely need to plan to arrive at the hospital an hour or more before you are scheduled for surgery, as well as stay for some time after in recovery. You will be given sedation and anesthesia, which means you will need someone to drive you. Your provider may perform the surgery in the operating room at the hospital or in a procedure room at their office or clinic. You will be given a gown to change into when you arrive at the hospital, but you should still wear or bring something comfortable to wear when you go home.
You will likely feel groggy and a little sore. Wearing clothes that do not have any buttons or zippers and slip-on shoes will make it easier for you to get dressed, go to the bathroom, and move around as you are recovering from the procedure. The healthcare team will give you specific instructions, but in general, it's best to leave any jewelry, watches, or other wearables of value at home.
If there is an item you rarely take off, such as a wedding ring, you can also give these valuables to the person who has driven you for safekeeping. If you are receiving anesthesia and sedation, you will be instructed to stop eating or drinking for several hours before your procedure. You may be told to fast completely starting the night before your surgery. If you have medications to take the morning of your surgery, you may be allowed a sip of water. It's important to tell your healthcare team about any medications you take, as you may be asked to wait until after your surgery is over, or skip them completely.
You will want to check with your healthcare provider and insurance company to see if hymenectomy is covered. Your health insurance company may need information from your practitioner's office before making a decision, such as whether the surgery is elective or medically necessary. If you have questions, it's best to call your insurance company before you have the surgery.
You may also be able to find out information on your insurance carrier's website, particularly about which services are covered, how much is covered, and whether the provider you are seeing is considered in-network or out-of-network.
If you receive a bill after you have had surgery and are concerned about how you will pay, you may also be able to talk to the billing department of the healthcare system where the procedure was performed.
In some cases, they may be able to offer payment plans or charity care, depending on your income level, insurance coverage, and other healthcare expenses. A week or two before your procedure, you will likely receive a packet of information or a phone call from your healthcare provider's office or the hospital where you will be having surgery. You will be told everything you need to know about when to arrive, what to expect, and what you should bring with you or leave at home.
In general, it's best to leave your valuables at home or plan to give items such as your cellphone to the person who drives you to and from the hospital. As for your personal items, such as your wallet, house keys, and something to keep you occupied while you wait like a book or magazine , you will usually be given a bag to put these items in, as well as your clothes, when you arrive at the hospital.
If you prefer, you can also bring a tote bag or knapsack large enough for these items, which can be left with the person who accompanies you. As you would when traveling, put a tag with your name and contact information on it in case it is misplaced or accidentally picked up by someone else.
Before surgery, you will likely not be allowed to have anything to eat or drink.
