What should I do if the hymen is closed?

Patient's question:

Hymenolysis

Doctor's answer:

Hymenolysis, also known as imperforate hymen, is relatively common clinically and is caused by the failure of the urethral-gential sinus epithelium to penetrate the vestibule. Before the onset of puberty, there may be no symptoms at all. After the first menstrual period, due to hymenolysis, menstrual blood cannot be expelled. Initially, menstrual blood accumulates in the vagina. With multiple menstrual cycles, the blood gradually accumulates, leading to blood accumulation in the uterus and fallopian tubes, and even blood accumulation in the abdominal cavity. It is necessary to go to the hospital for surgery, otherwise menstrual blood and other secretions cannot be expelled.
