Doctor's answer:
Usually, the vaginal opening of a woman is covered by a thin membrane (the hymen). During the first sexual intercourse, a small amount of bleeding occurs as the membrane is torn. However, if the reproductive organs are fully developed, combined with knowledge and mastery of sexual techniques, the occurrence of hymen rupture and bleeding during the first sexual experience can be significantly reduced. In some women, the hymen may be very close to the edge of the vaginal wall, and it may not rupture during intercourse. Sometimes, a small amount of blood may flow back into the vagina, or in cases where the hymen has already ruptured before marriage due to activities such as vigorous exercise, the first sexual intercourse may not result in bleeding. It is common for there to be no bleeding (luo hong) during the first sexual experience on the night of a wedding.
