Tertullian held that Mary was no longer virgin after Jesus’s birth - due to Jesus’s birth. Tertullian’s views on Mary and virginity were strongly rejected. I don’t think even Protestants would agree with them.

I am not holding up Tertullian as some model, just to show the ideas are not new.

He ended up somewhere between a sedvectuis hard ass and a Pentacostal.

This issue was discussed many times in the past, again I think being more discussed recently because of the increasing over-veneration of Mary by certain sub-groups in the RCC.
