VAGINALTEAR: vaginal birth tear unstitched

Specifically the vaginal orifice or hymenal ring (the entrance to the vaginal canal) has a large tear about the 5-6 oclock position. The tear is at least 2-3 cm in length. The tear is considered to be 1st degree because it does not go beneath into the underlying layers of tissue. Because of this it was not stiched. The edges have healed over. Eveything else looks great but the tear is very obvious and concern is that there will be a loss of intimacy.

Is such a tear normal? Should this be addressed? Can it be? What would you do?
