Russian woman poorly after half dozen 'revirginations'

Like a virgin, touched for the very sixth time...

A Russian woman is in a bad way in intensive care following her sixth "revirgination" - hymenoplasty ops which gave her husband the honour of popping her cherry once a year until her immune system could stand no more.

According to MosNews, Natalia K got married at 24 but had already surrendered her hymen to a previous beau. Hubby wasn't too happy about that, so on the first anniversary of their wedding, she nipped into a plastic surgery clinic to put things right.

So delighted was her other half with the result that the deflowering became an annual ritual. After five bites of the cherry, however, docs warned her a sixth revirgination "posed dangers for her health".

Undeterred, the recidivist virgin insisted and signed the release papers. Her weakened immune system failed to tackle a minor post-surgery infection, and serious medical attention followed. ®
