If Hymen is Intact, where do the periods flow through?

you are right, your period blood comes from the uterus.
it trickles out through the cervix, which is the neck of the womb.
it then flows throgh the vagina to the outside world.

your hymen is a piece of skin, usually crescent shaped, which covers the rear or bottom of your vagina.


the website below will show you some illustrations of different types of hymen

some women do indeed have a hymen which covers all of the vaginal opening, and you have to go to the doctors for him to make an incision in the hymen to let your period blood out.

but for most woman there is enough room for the blood and womb lining to come out.

please ask if you want to know more..........
