Understanding virginity, the hymen, and their connections to sexual health involves considering cultural, medical, and social factors. Virginity is often seen as never having had sex, but its meaning varies between cultures. The hymen is a thin membrane near the vaginal opening, but it's not a reliable sign of virginity as it can vary and be affected by activities unrelated to sex. Thinking that an intact hymen proves virginity can lead to harmful beliefs and practices. While the hymen might matter in medical exams, its presence doesn't guarantee sexual health. It's important to correct misunderstandings, share accurate information, and have open conversations about these topics to help people make informed choices about their bodies and sexuality.

In this episode of Gulabi Sambad, we have discussed these topics with Dr. Prakriti Sitaula, Gynecologist and Obstetrician.
