	eMedicine - Imperforate Hymen : Article by Paula J Adams Hillard, MD
		Observation with a planned hymenotomy during puberty is a reasonable course of action in most cases diagnosed in infancy or childhood, assuming no urinary symptoms or obstruction is present.
		Hymenotomy occasionally may be indicated in the case of a rigid inelastic hymen, particularly for young female athletes (eg, swimmers, divers, gymnasts, cheerleaders) who are eager to use tampons.
		Intraoperative details: The objective of a hymenotomy procedure is to open the hymenal membrane in such a way as to leave a normally patent vaginal orifice that does not scar.

	hymen - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		Parous Introitus – which refers to the vaginal opening which has had a baby pass through it and consequently has nothing left of its hymen but a fleshy irregular outline decorating its perimeter.
		Some are born with no hymen at all, others with closed hymens that require a medical procedure to allow menstruation, while others have overly thick hymens that may require a gynecologist to break the hymen to prevent pain for the woman during sex, a procedure called a hymenotomy.
		On the other hand, a woman can also have the hymen surgically restored in order to feign virginity.

		A hymenotomy is a less invasive procedure, where the hymnal ring is opened but not removed.
		It is done to treat an imperforate hymen or other situations where the hymen is unusually thick or rigid in order to allow normal menstruation or sexual intercourse.
		If this condition is not corrected with a hymenotomy, the menstrual blood “back up” in the uterus (called hematocolpos) and flow out the fallopian tubes and into the abdomen.

		On examination, the hymen may be bulging with hematocolpos and the palpated vagina will be distended with blood.
		Treatment, which should be immediate, involves a hymenotomy in which an incision is made in the hymen to drain the fluid and an orifice of normal size is created by removing excess tissue.
		Unlike an imperforate hymen, microperforate, cribriform and septate hymens are not usually symptomatic; however, they may cause difficulty in tampon use and sexual intercourse.

		Because the risks of general anesthesia are greatest in the first 6 months of life, surgical intervention should be delayed until the perimenarchal period because the tissues are naturally re-estrogenized and thus heal more readily and because children can be cognizant and participatory of the imperforate himen.
		At this age, although most patients prefer general anesthesia, some have the ability to cooperate with an office hymenotomy.
		It is important to provide patients with a choice so that they can make their own decisions.

		Bromidrosis is caused by decomposition of the sweat and cellular debris by the action of bacteria and yeasts.
		Hymenotomy and other plastic surgical procedures should be done only when obvious gynatresia is present.
		Dystocia may occur when the myometrial contractions are too weak or too strong, too frequent or too infrequent, too brief or too prolonged, or when they are irregular.

		Treatment without consent was made illegal with the Nuremberg Laws as treatment without consent, and definately when there is clear objection should be.
		Female humans should consider having their hymin (the skin that may block the vagina opening) opened by the surgical procedure called "hymenotomy" if necessary and not by an erect penis.
		A number of dental operations are not necessary, one example is the operation to remove part of the gum with the excuse of making removing plaque more easy as plaque (bacteria) destroys gum tissue under the gum line.

	Tyler Medical Clinic :: The Role of Retrograde Menstruation in Endometriosis
		This theory would also allow for prophylactic treatment, with a concept predicated on the relief of obstruction of egress of menses.
		Therefore hymenotomy, dilatation of the cervix and correction of fixed uterine retroversions would appear to have a rational place in the prevention and treatment of endometriosis.
		The keystone of prophylaxis, however, would be awareness that this problem may exist in young patients who have intestinal anomalies, because there is a very real chance of their also having a genital anomaly with obstruction to egress.

		In some cases, reconstructive surgery may also be beneficial for affected individuals with nipple and breast abnormalities.
		In addition, in some affected females, surgery may be recommended to open (perforate) the hymen (hymenotomy).
		In affected males, surgery may be performed to move undescended testes into the scrotum (orchiopexy) and attach them in a fixed position to prevent retraction.

		Feminists who argued that Judaism has an equal access covenant innovated B'rit bat ceremonies to welcome baby girls into the covenantal community.
		The ritual act by which this is to be accomplished has been the subject of much debate, the most extreme (theoretical) proposal being hymenotomy.
		There is as yet no standard form of the ceremony, though predominant rituals involve light or water.

		I could try to see from inside my own skin, not as I’d viewed it from the outside since I was ten, as a bleeding burden or as church property or as my husband’s private treasure…[then] I came to the poem I knew I had to write.
		Revisit the moment of your most passive silence, came a whisper inside of me. Give the girl you were a voice.” Hart then launches into a harrowing account of her pre-marriage hymenotomy, the violent taking of her virginity by a patronizing physician.
		By giving voice to this girl, long silent and long silenced, Hart grants others a voice—she says the things that others may lack the courage to say.

	The Happy Feminist: THE CULT OF THE HYMEN LIVES ON . . .
		Yarborough, 40 years old, a medical assistant from San Antonio [who paid $5,000 for the surgery on the occasion of her 17th wedding anniversary].
		According to Joan Jacobs Brumberg in The Body Project: An Intimate History of American Girls, a hymenotomy is a surgical incision of the hymen which gynecologists began performing in the '30s and '40s to prevent hemorrhage, pain, and infection on the honeymoon.
		As I was reading about the hymenotomy I was struck by the idea that underprivileged women could probably do it themselves with some topical Novocain and a pizza cutter for fewer than thirty bucks, so long as they didn't press too hard on the pizza cutter.

		The fact that she did the hymenotomy without really giving you any information worries me. If you are having pain, something could be wrong.
		Just because you aren't supposed to be having it, doesn't mean you aren't.

		I didn't tell him what kind when he asked, just put "long story" because a) it was over text message and b) it was somewhat intimate.
		It was a hymenotomy and he doesn't know I'm a virgin so I didn't want to unleash that biggie at this point, because it was way too soon.
