Can a woman be born without a hymen? Is it possible to lose one's virginity without both bleeding or pain? If so, how can one tell?
Oct 21, 2014

Dr. Nemer Charafeddine Obstetrics & Gynecology
Theoretically yes, but it is very rare to have no hymen.
Virginity -as I tell my patients- is a subjective issue. You can engage in sexual status without having vaginal penetration, so are you still labeled a''virgin''.
In response to your question, yes you can also have intercourse without bleeding or pain, - but this is also very rare.
