ABSTRACT
Imperforate hymen is a common condition that with classic appearance and presentation in puberty. This may be diagnosed in a neonate when mucocolpos is noted. There are many great pretenders of this condition, but the hallmarks include a bulging hymen with blue hue at puberty. If this is not seen on external genital exam, the provider should proceed with magnetic resonance imaging to better assess the reproductive tract anatomy before engaging in surgery. For providers uncomfortable in managing conditions often confused with an imperforate hymen, referral to a Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecologist or specialist comfortable managing these conditions, is recommended.
