What is Imperforate Hymen?

The hymen is a thin membrane that mostly covers the vaginal opening. Normally a small hole is present to allow for menstruation. In patients with imperforate hymen, the hymen entirely covers the opening, which prevents menstrual blood from leaving the body during periods. This condition is typically diagnosed when a female girl enters puberty (menarche) and has symptoms of cyclical (monthly) abdominal pain and a lack of menstruation.

Diagnostic Questions for Imperforate Hymen

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Do you have a lump in your abdomen?
  • Do you have pain in your lower abdomen?
  • Do you have any stomach or abdominal pain?
  • Do you have frequent stomach or abdominal pain with unknown causes?
  • Do you experience stomach or abdominal pain that comes and goes regularly?

Treatment of Imperforate Hymen

Treatment involves minor surgery, where a small incision is made in the hymen to allow menstrual fluid to drain properly. Patients might receive antibiotics to prevent infection while the wound heals. Most patients will recover well and have normal reproductive lives.
