Increasing numbers of women are having taxpayer-funded virginity repair operations before marriage.
There were 116 hymen replacement operations carried out on the NHS between 2005 and 2009. The total for 2009 was 30, up 25 per cent from 24 in 2005.
The health service figures, which do not include data on the religion or marital status of the individuals, seem to echo a trend reported by private clinics, which are seeing a huge surge in demand for the procedure from Muslim women paying up to £4,000.

But a Department of Health spokesman insisted that hymen repair operations take place on the NHS only to ensure a patients physical or psychological health.
She said: The NHS does not fund hymen repair operations for cultural reasons. All operations on the NHS are on the basis of clinical need.
Operations to repair the hymen are only carried out exceptionally to secure physical or psychological health.

Just because you put the cork back in the bottle doesn’t mean the wine hasn’t been opened.
And they are using transplanted eardrums as the replacement “hymens”.
So you shall see young women lifting their left leg and saying, “What?”
Win the name of Muhammad is going on over there? Aren't they risking losing their heads for replacing their ... oh, never mind.
Interesting way to put it...
Here’s one way to cutting down these surgeries.
Tell everybody the reconstruction requires using membranes from pigs.
Well, well, well.
You CAN unring the bell. You CAN unpop the balloon.
Who knew?
Just send ‘em to the Virgin Islands for recycling.
“”Just because you put the cork back in the bottle doesnt mean the wine hasnt been opened.””
What a way to put it - but it fits!
Wonder how long before we can expect that “fad” to hit here?
The UK has a hard time fitting in EMERGENCY patients - how on earth do they justify this? Never mind. Silly questions don’t deserve answers!
Upside: This cuts down on suicide bombing.
Title should be, “Some women pretending they are virgins again”.
If anyone, man or woman, truly values virginity, that person will not engage in premarital sex.
“She’s a virgin. She’s just slightly used and shop-soiled.”
I want to be a virgin again and start over on my debt management. But I have nothing to replace. Its all still there intact.
Honest, dear. The batteries are for my hearing aid.
Deadly serious health issue.
If your muslim groom finds out you aren't a vigin, he WILL kill you.
Dead is a medical condition...
Reminds me of the pious Arab Muslims I used to see in Thailand who would go to Bangkok to prowl the red-light district in large packs.
Mulva?
That does not make you a virgin again, just as the hymen breaking in an event other than intercourse/penitration makes you not a virgin.
re: “”Health”... my foot!”
Dude, in the Muslim culture - whether you had premarital sex or you were raped - you can be killed for not having the hymen/blood showing up.
It’s the sick, twisted beliefs that has set up this problem. While ordinarily I would agree that this is a hypocritical, unnecessary medical procedure - in their culture it is hazardous to a supposedly “virgin” Muslim woman’s health to not have that hymen. Yes, she shouldn’t have had premarital sex (if it was consentual), but I don’t think she deserves death!
