Symptoms and diagnosis of congenital absence of vagina

Experts say that congenital absence of vagina is a congenital hereditary disease. The incidence of this disease is usually very low. It is beneficial for us to understand the symptoms and self-examination methods of congenital absence of vagina. Let's take a look at the experts' introduction in this regard.

Most patients with congenital angular vagina only have completely closed vaginal vestibule mucosa at the normal vaginal opening, without vaginal traces. Some patients also have shallow depressions in the vaginal vestibule, and some have blind vaginas shorter than 3 cm. It is often accompanied by no deformity, and only slightly thickened strip-like tissue can be seen in the normal uterus, located in the middle of the broad ligament.

About 1/10 of patients may have partial uterine development and functional endometrium. After puberty, due to menstrual blood retention, they experience periodic abdominal pain, amenorrhea, or the disease is discovered only after marriage when they seek medical attention due to sexual intercourse difficulties.

Judgment basis

Prepuberty is often overlooked. If carefully examined, there may be or no hymen, a shallow depression at the opening of the hymen, or a short and shallow lower vagina.

2. With or without uterine dysplasia. If the uterus develops abnormally, it will manifest as primary amenorrhea after puberty, with a small or deformed uterus. If the uterus develops normally, primary amenorrhea will occur with periodic abdominal pain, intrauterine blood accumulation, and enlarged uterus.

3. Sexual dysfunction.

4. Those with ovarian hypoplasia have incomplete development of secondary sexual characteristics, short stature, webbed neck, cubitus valgus and other deformities.

Through the above introduction, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the disease of congenital absence of vagina. You can refer to the above knowledge to do a self-examination. If you have any suspected symptoms, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.
