Symptoms & Signs
Symptoms vary according to the abnormality present. Abnormalities include:
- imperforate hymen -- An adolescent girl may complain of recurrent pelvic pain and lack of menstrual periods. Urinary retention may also occur.
- vaginal septum, complete -- An adolescent girl may have those symptoms similar to imperforate hymen. Incomplete vaginal septum may allow adequate menstrual flow, but later may cause pain with intercourse.
- menstruation, absent -- This may also be associated with this disease.
