    Your vagina is 110% normal.

    You have abstained from sexual intercourse until now and you are good my dear!

    I see nothing at all wrong with your vagina.

    Good luck and have fun! ( safe fun)

    Your vagina looks absolutely normal, not sure what skin flap you mentioned, but according to these photos - there's nothing unusual.

      Thank you for your reply. Can you please tell me where exactly is the hymen located? By the skin flap, I meant that pinkish layer of skin outside the opening.

      There are many different shapes of hymen, you might refer to the following drawing for some reference:

      Generally, it surrounds or partially covers the external vaginal opening. Your photos were probably not taken in good light, so the quality is not great. Are you referring to your perineum (the area between your anus and the vulva) as the pinkish layer of skin that concerns you?

      The opening is too small for now. Surrounding the opening the skin in between.

      Ok, I get it now. I didn't pay attention to that, I attributed the skin colour in your perineum to the stretching of your labia. If your concern is on the perineum area, you might want to make another picture (with better light, if possible, for proper colours), focusing on the perineum area (between anus and vulva), without pulling your labia with fingers, but with spreading your cheeks with your hands. I expect that the colour will be different.
