Patient's question:
Doctor, hello``Last night I used a mirror to look at the hymen, but I don't know if it was the lighting or~``When I spread my vaginal area, I saw a lot of white things inside, which looked like mucous membranes, and there were also a lot of mucous membranes around. Is it the hymen?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the hymen is 3-5 cm away from the vaginal opening. The diameter of the central opening of the hymen is approximately 1-1.5 cm. For self-examination, it is recommended to sit and use your fingers to spread open the vaginal opening fully, using a mirror to check if there is a smooth, intact, circular hole in the membrane. If the membrane is incomplete, it is considered torn.
