Patient's question:
Patient Gender: I just want to know where the hymen is located in women?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the hymen is located 2~3 centimeters from the vaginal opening. The hymen is a thin, hollow circular membrane that covers the female vaginal opening, with a thickness of about 1-2 mm. It provides some protection for the vagina, preventing the entry of some unclean secretions and bacteria, which is particularly important for unmarried girls. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, it is important to drink plenty of water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
