The structure of the hymen. The hymen of a woman, located in a hidden part of the human body, inevitably gives it a mysterious color. For thousands of years, people have explored various customs surrounding the worship of virgins one after another
Hymen is a film with holes in the center that covers the outer mouth of a woman's vagina. It is located at the boundary between the vagina and Vulval vestibule. The film is pink on both sides and has a moist surface. The hymen of teenagers is smaller and thicker, and as a woman's body matures, it gradually becomes larger and thinner, with considerable resilience. The hymen of an adult woman is about 1-2 mm thick and contains connective tissue, microvessels and Free nerve ending.
In the center of the hymen, there is a small hole with a diameter of 1-1.5 centimeters, medically known as the "hymen hole", through which a girl's menstrual cycle can be discharged. The shape of this small hole varies from person to person. According to the shape of the opening, the hymen can be divided into more than 30 types, including circular, elliptical, circular, sieve shaped, umbrella shaped, lobed, star shaped, crescent shaped, and lip shaped. The common hymen foramen are circular and elliptical.
In Arab countries, the crescent shaped hymen hole is considered the most precious, based on the fact that such hymens are extremely rare, with an average of only about 15 out of every 100000 people. In fact, there is no difference in the physiological function of any shape of hymen pore, and it is impossible to say whether it is precious or not. Usually, a hymen foramen can cause a finger to slowly touch a person, but there are exceptions. Some women may not have a hymen foramen from birth, just as some people may have some congenital defect.
