Natalia K., a Russian woman, has landed herself in the hospital after getting her sixth - count ‘em, sixth - hymenoplasty to restore her virginity.

This whole vagina-brouhaha started when her newlywed husband discovered that she wasn’t a virgin. To make it up to him, she had her virginity restored for their first anniversary. (Apparently, she ditched the tradition of a paper gift for year one, and replaced it with a brand new maidenhead.) The couple enjoyed this dangerous game of “Back to the Future” so much that they replicated it for their second anniversary.

Following in the tradition of Pat Riley, they went for the three-peat, then the 4-peat, and 5-peat. With each successive trip to the surgeon, Natalia K. was warned that she was putting herself at greater and greater risk. Her husband replied each time, “If she dies, she dies.”

On her sixth trip to the surgeon, her weakened immune system rejected the re-virginization, and she’s currently in intensive care.

We hope that she recovers fully and quickly, but we also hope that she soon realizes how totally nuts this procedure is.
