Does masturbation affect the hymen?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can masturbation affect the hymen?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, when women engage in masturbation, they inevitably touch their genital area. During moments of excitement, they may instinctively thrust into the vagina to seek extreme stimulation and release sexual desire. A virgin's vagina appears narrower at the entrance due to the hymen. Random or forceful thrusting into the vagina can damage the hymen, leading to a widened vaginal opening. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's life but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine check-up. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and maintain good personal hygiene.
