Restoration of the hymen
Other Qs & As
I met a Jewish boyfriend some time ago and now he has asked to marry me. He told me that it is important for him to marry a virgin.
I'm not virgin, but I lied and said I am.
I have heard about the operation of 'hymen restoration', and was wondering how good it is.
Answer
'Restoration' of the hymen gives the appearance and 'feel' of virginity. What the surgeon does is to lift a 'flap' of vaginal lining, so as to make a thin barrier – which should break when intercourse is attempted.
The op is available in a number of the world's large cities, including London – at a price. For instance, in the Harley Street area, it would cost you several thousand pounds.
Like most operations it can occasionally go wrong. So, please think carefully before you go ahead. If you decide to do so, ring the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) for details of a properly qualified and experienced surgeon. Their number is: 020 7405 2234.
Finally, I notice that you don't say you love this guy or that you're mad keen to marry him. You just say that he has 'asked to marry' you. So are you really sure this is such a good idea?
Best wishes
