Undergo the most advanced and successful hymen repair surgery in Chandigarh from Pristyn Care
Hymen reconstruction surgery or hymenoplasty is a minor cosmetic gynaecological procedure carried out to reconstruct the torn hymen in females who wish to have their hymen reconstructed or repaired, mostly for religious, cultural or social reasons. The hymen is a fibrous and elastic tissue present in the lower half of the vagina and is usually torn when the female has first sexual penetration. Hymen repair is a simple procedure that involves stitching back the torn edges or remnants of the hymen together with the use of dissolvable sutures. The procedure restores the intact hymen that has been ruptured during sexual intercourse, rape, insertion of tampons or during sports or accidents.
Hymen repair surgery can be performed soon after the hymen has ruptured or even much later. Hymenoplasty is performed under the influence of general or local anesthesia so that the female does not have pain during the procedure. To undergo safe and successful hymen repair surgery, book an appointment with Pristyn Care.
What is the recovery like after hymen repair surgery in Chandigarh?
The outlook of hymen reconstruction surgery is positive and most females are pleased with the results and overall surgical experience. The female can go home the same day after the procedure. Mild discomfort and swelling can normally occur after hymenoplasty and is expected to resolve on its own in 2 to 3 days. If you still face any pain or discomfort, you should speak to your gynecologist. Tips to keep in mind during recovery after hymenoplasty include-
- No sexual intercourse for 15-20 days after the surgery
- Avoid using scented soaps for cleaning genital areas
- Avoid douching
- Keep the area free from infection
- Wear loose clothes to prevent rubbing
- Use sanitary towels for wiping the intimate areas
Mild discomfort after a hymenoplasty procedure can be treated with oral pain medications. Apart from the pain medication, the gynaecologist may also prescribe antibiotics to prevent infections and help in a speedy recovery. You will not need daily dressing or regular follow up appointments with the gynaecologist after hymenoplasty. Typically, you will not have any major side effects, complications or other problems while recovering from the surgery. But if you have any concerns or discomforts, feel free to consult the gynaecologist and clear your head.

How to prepare for hymenoplasty?
- Choose the right doctor: While hymenoplasty can be done by both- gynecologists and plastic surgeons, an OB-GYN with experience in cosmetic gyne surgeries is the safest choice.
- Carry age-proof: As an eligibility criteria, you are required to be at least 18+ years of age before undergoing hymenoplasty. This is why we suggest you carry your age proof along.
- Know your rights: You do not need approval from your partner/ parent in case of hymenoplasty or any cosmetic surgeries. Your own written consent is enough. (Provided, you are above 18 years of age. )
However, we encourage you to discuss your needs, and expectations thoroughly. This would help you make a better and informed decision.
- Discuss your current health and medications: We suggest you thoroughly discuss your health, current medications and supplements (if any) with your doctor. You might be required to stop taking some medications before the procedure, else they risk interfering with the healing.
- Keep a track: Keep a detailed track of your period cycle and go prepared on your last 3-4 menstrual dates and days of periods. This would help you plan the right time for the treatment. The best time to plan hymenoplasty is 2 days after your last period cycle.
What are the risks of hymenoplasty procedure?
When performed under safe medical conditions and by trained gynecologists, hymenoplasty is a typically safe and minimum risk surgery. However, as with any surgery, hymenoplasty too comes with a few risks of complications. These include-
- Prolonged bleeding
- Pelvic/ vaginal infection
- Anesthetic complications
- Overcorrection
Please note that these complications are extremely rare and commonly treatable with minimally invasive surgery.
What are the different types of hymen?
Hymens come in a variety of shapes and sizes. There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all hymen. There are five different types of hymen, according to medical classification:
- Normal – Commonly hymens have a crescent-shaped entrance
- Cribriform hymen – Hymen with numerous small apertures for menstrual blood to flow through.
- Imperforate hymen – Hymen with no opening.
- Micro perforated hymen – Hymen with a tiny aperture
- Septate hymens have a thin tissue band running through the middle.
Can virginity pills or hymen repair kits give a virginity effect?
No. In fact, you must refrain from such over-the-counter products as they may do more harm than good. Vagina, as you know, is a very delicate and sensitive organ. Inserting anything while the ingredients are not researched, may disturb its Ph balance and cause dryness. This would then risk tear or rupture during intercourse and itchiness and bacterial infection afterward.
If you seek a reconstructed hymen, hymen repair is the best, most common, and medically verified method. It is:
- Less than the 30-minute procedure
- Has no major risks/ complications
- Is undetectable after 1-2 months.
What kind of aftercare is required following a hymenoplasty procedure?
After your procedure, your doctor may recommend a few hours of monitoring. If there are no issues, you will be discharged within 2-3 hours and you will be able to return to work within 2-4 days.
Some post-care tips that may help you are:
- As you clean your vaginal area, do not wipe. Only gently pat dry.
- Keep the area clean and free of moisture.
- If you experience any itching or swelling as you heal, we suggest you use warm compresses and ice packs to relieve the discomfort.
- Avoid head shower or extended baths for at least 2–3 days after.
- You must not have sex for at least 8 weeks after the procedure.
- As you bleed/ menstruate, use only soft sanitary pads. Do not use tampons/ anything penetrative in nature.
- Do not eat anything too spicy. It could trigger irritation and inflammation in your gastrointestinal pipe.
- Drink a lot of water. Keep yourself hydrated. It would help you heal.
- Eat meals with high fiber content. It will help make your bowel movements easier.
