Do you think Eve's sons had relations with her since it doesn't mention any other women or did God create other women and just doesn't say it?

But, God does say so. Sometimes you have to read the next few verses and they will tell you the answer.

No. Adam and Eve had daughters also.

Read Gen 5:4

One possibility is that human DNA had not been corrupted at that time, and apparently brother and sister were allowed to "be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it", Gen.1:28.

Yes, and often in replies to what was deemed a possibility. Pray more and talk less.

YOU SURE KNOW HOW TO CORRUPT A VERSE. That wAs strictly for ADAM AND EVE. THAT the way i read it and it means that to me regardless of how many times I read it; but people often make mistakes when they take thibg out of context.

there's no verse in the bible that God created another woman except eve.

I mis read that I think as I agree with you that there is no verse in the Bible that says God created another woman except Eve. That is right but over the years I have seen questions on who did so and so marry because apparently sometimes people ask that as if there was no one they could figure out ; and now I am even wondering if I had that wrong also; but time will tell as I will be waiting to see if I can see that type of question again. Yes God only created Adam and eve from adam.

everything is not necessarily in the Bible. Maybe God never thought that was important at the time and I don't why that is important now. If the Bible says something; that is good enough for me. If it doesn't say something; that is also good enough for me.

If he didn't create more humans, then you and I would not be here. God created ALL life. You and me also.

It's more likely that Adam and Eve had more children than what our Bible records. Adam and Eve is everyones earthly parents.

They did have more sons and daughters.

This would be speculation since the Bible does not dwell on the subject. We must accept by faith what God has placed in His word. It is a good question, but I will not speculate unless there is something in the scriptures I have overlooked.

I believe Eve had numerous children. I do not believe there were any relations between her and her sons but her sons and daughters must have done so. Since scripture as it is written gives us no understanding of anything else.

I notice scripture tells us in Ex6 v20 that Amram, Moses father, took as his wife, his fathers sister. So Moses father married his aunty, which is forbidden in later scripture.
Clearly then, incest was not a problem in the beginning to populate the world but I believe sin made it a problem later. Marriage now starts at first cousin, however in some societies this is frowned on

Yes it tells you in later chapters that Adam and Eve had more daughters and sons.

Yes Trevor Eve had Daughters before Cain this is confirmed by what God said to her Genesis3. For something to increase it has to happen beforehand...
Gen3:16 Unto the Woman He said; I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception, in sorrow thou shalt bring forth Children and thy desire shall be to thy Husband and he shall rule over thee.
