Stone women is the folk name for abnormal vaginal development, congenital inability to have sex, generally can be divided into true stone women and pseudo stone women, generally manifested as congenital absence of menstruation and sexual life disorders symptoms.
True lithiasis refers to congenital absence of vagina or vaginal atresia, in which patients with absence of vagina usually have normal vulvar development, but no menstruation after puberty, with or without cyclic lower abdominal pain and other symptoms.
Pseudo stone women refer to those with well-developed vagina and other reproductive organs, but with abnormalities of the hymen, such as hymenal atresia, resulting in impaired sexual life and failure of menstruation to pass out of the body smoothly.
Once diagnosed as a stone woman, surgical treatment is needed as soon as possible. For example, patients with congenital absence of vagina can undergo vaginoplasty in order to rebuild the vagina. As for pseudo stone women caused by hymenal atresia, surgery can be performed to make an oval incision close to the hymenal ring and form a normal-sized hole with a serrated suture margin.
The prognosis for stone women is generally good after aggressive surgical treatment, and patients are advised to undergo regular treatment in a timely manner.
