Answer: Activity Restrictions Post Hymen Repair Following hymenoplasty, it is important to allow the delicate tissue to heal unimpeded as long as possible. I advise my patients to avoid any strenuous activity for at least 2 weeks but it takes 6 weeks for the tissue to fully heal so the longer the patient takes it easy the better chance for a successful outcome. Keep in mind the hymen tissue is fragile so even following 6 weeks of healing some activities can cause the tissue to break down. I hope this helps. ~Dr. Poucher
