Defloration (Latin de - removal, elimination + flos, floris - flower, youth, virginity) - violation of the integrity of the hymen. As a rule, the deprivation of virginity takes place at the first sexual intercourse. Usually, girls experience pain after deprivation of virginity. In rare cases, the hymen can stretch out and remain whole after one or more sexual acts. There are cases when girls do not have a nip since birth, but this does not happen often.

What is a hymen?

The hymen consists of the fold of the vaginal mucosa and performs a protective function, not passing through the genitals of harmful bacteria. It can have a different shape and in some women it has different physiological parameters. With rare exceptions, the hymen does not end until the end, which allows menstruation to go out freely. In other cases, when menstrual flow can not go out without hindrance, before and after the loss of virginity, the surgeon's intervention may be required.  

Causes of pain after deprivation of virginity

"The first time" in girls is usually accompanied by pain and bleeding. Sometimes the peculiarities of the individual structure of the genital organs in girls can cause pain after deprivation of virginity. In addition, pain can cause infections, accompanied by inflammatory processes. If the spit is not strongly closed, then the pain after the first sex is either absent or lasts very long. In general, the strength of pain depends on many factors: the general physiological and psychological state and correct actions of a man during sexual intercourse. The most interesting thing is that when a hymen is ruptured, it is not at all an indispensable sign of a break in the loss of chastity. So, about 20-30% of women do not experience pain and bleeding is not observed. But there are cases when the "bosom" bleeds within a week. 

Traumatic deprivation of virginity

In the process of defloration, the "success" of the procedure often depends on the man. Sex "in a drunk" or, God forbid, rape, can lead to serious consequences. Such rough intercourse can turn into traumas and ruptures of the entrance to the vagina, and sometimes even a rupture of the perineum.

Unnatural deprivation of virginity 

Lose chastity can not only be in contact with a man. You can break the hymen with self-satisfaction, same-sex sex, during petting and with excessive enthusiasm for dildos. Injuries, sprains with twine, and even inaccuracy of the gynecologist can also cause a rupture of the hymen. Fear of experiencing pain after losing virginity pushes some girls to eliminate the nerve surgically. 

Some statistics

A girl can already be ready for a full sexual life right after puberty, that is from the age of 12-13. However, morality in many countries of the world does not allow it to be done before adulthood. What is most interesting, most girls do not stand such restrictions and, on average, lose their virginity as early as 17 years, but according to gynecologists, there are cases when girls become women as early as 11 years.
According to statistics, young Czechs and Icelanders are becoming "no longer girls" at about 15 years old. Residents of Italy, Ukraine and France say goodbye to chastity at 16, girls from Germany, Portugal, the United States, China and Russia at 17, British women at 18, and women in Pakistan at 20. In African tribes, this age ranges from 10 to 20 years. 
Physicians are advised to lose chastity at the age of optimal elasticity of the hymen, that is, in 18-20 years. At the age of 23 years, the elasticity of the spittle gradually decreases by an average of 30%, by 30 years - by 80%. This can cause pain after deprivation of virginity, heavy bleeding.  

What to do with pain after deprivation of virginity?

With pain after deprivation of virginity, first of all, you need to turn to a gynecologist, and it's best to do this beforehand, before the girl decides to part with innocence. Based on the results of the survey, it will be clear how best to proceed with the defloration procedure and whether it is worth it at all. After the first sexual intercourse, you should also go to the doctor to make sure that the procedure went without complications.
In cases where the bleeding is intense enough, it does not stop for several days, while all this is accompanied by fever and purulent discharge from the vagina, do not wait for a miracle and you should immediately go to the hospital. In addition, an unsuccessful, say incomplete, defloration procedure also requires medical intervention. There are also cases of pregnancy after the first sexual intercourse. Usually this happens with unprotected sex. The first sign is a delay in menstruation. To make sure of this or to dissuade, one can not do without the advice of a doctor.
Despite everything, after the first sexual intercourse the hymen can remain intact, especially if the spit is excessively or, conversely, not sufficiently elastic. If the hymen can stretch freely enough, then lose virginity will only come after giving birth, with the fruit coming out. The worse the elasticity of the hymen, the more difficult it is to tear and for this, it may be necessary for the surgeon to intervene so that he makes a small incision so that later the defloration goes naturally.

Is orgasm possible during defloration?

As medical practice shows, such cases are quite rare. Usually defloration is accompanied if not pain, then at least unpleasant sensations. Subsequent sexual acts give the woman more pleasant sensations, but this already depends on her mood, and, to a greater extent, on the behavior of the partner. 

Under what conditions should the defloration process be carried out?

Conditions should be comfortable first of all for the girl. Her psychological mood can affect not only the process of defloration, but also to further health. Therefore, in order to be safe and make the first sex the most comfortable, you need, first of all, the mutual consent of partners. A girl must be morally ready to become a woman. The furnishings should be as comfortable as possible, the room and the bed clean, there should not be any strangers in the house, it is desirable that even the phone does not interfere. You can drink a glass of champagne, which will help your partner to relax a little and dull the sense of shame, but do not lean on alcohol.

Physicians are advised to perform the procedure during the day, because the light will make the girl feel more comfortable, in addition, the man will be able to control the sexual intercourse, so that the defloration goes without injuries.
Some doctors are sure that caresses during the first sexual intercourse - not the best idea. After all, as practice shows, a girl is unlikely to get an orgasm immediately after a defloration, either sexually, or with the help of caresses. However, for the development of sexuality and passion in a woman, you can apply some love "tricks", which in the future will not create psychological and physiological barriers during sex.
Before the girl is deprived of virginity, partners should take in comfort in a comfortable bed. Next, a man must walk through the erogenous zones: the nipples of the breasts, the inner thighs, the clitoris (this body can be caressed until the girl receives an orgasm). After caresses, the man should gently and gently lie on his partner, then gently "enter" into it to break the fissure. Movements should be smooth with gradual deepening. After the rupture of the chaff, the sexual intercourse should last no more than 2 minutes. In the future, sexual intercourse can be repeated in the next two days, so that the vagina heals after the rupture of the hymen. Perhaps the first attempt will not be able to break the hymen. As for the posture, most doctors advise you to apply a missionary posture, that is, a pose, when the partner lies on her back.  

Do I need to be protected during the first sex? 

Any sexologist and gynecologist will say yes. The most convenient contraceptive is a condom. Thanks to him, the partner will not "fly" and not fall ill, because after the rupture of the hymen, the vagina of the girl is particularly prone to attacking bacteria and infections. Let's face it: not all men are equally clean, and a dirty sexual organ can bring a girl, just entered into sexual life, a lot of trouble. In any case, even if the partners are spouses, during the first act it is worth using a condom.

What are the virgins afraid of?

Most women, being still young girls, are very afraid of losing chastity, because this process is associated with pain after losing their virginity. And there is some truth in this - this is female physiology. In addition, girls are afraid of unplanned pregnancy, infectious diseases. There are also social complexes and stereotypes, for example, that no man will take a wife as a virgin. By the way, modern men are increasingly referring to the question of whether his bride is a virgin or not, from a pragmatic position: will he and his wife have complete sexual compatibility? And, most likely, this is correct, because according to statistics 70% of divorces in the world occur precisely because of incompatibility in bed.
