thing is that when i tried to put the tampon in, it didn't go in even though i followed the instructions on the box. Anyway, it really hurt, but im not sure if it was from having my period or from the tampon. Do you think i broke my hymen, even though the tampon only went in about an inch or something around there? I am still a virgin. Also, if you can provide a website with pictures of where the hymen is located or if you can tell me exactly where it is located and how it tears and how to check if i still have it and how it looks like, it would be really appreciated. Thank you!!!

i had a heck of a time with tampons too. this could have broken your hymen, but if you only got it in a small way then i doubt it. sometimes inserting tampons can hurt during your period because those tissues are sensitive because of the hormones, but then other times it will just slide in with out a problem. the pain may just come from the tensing up of the vagina, especially if you are nervous!! definately use a rounded tip applicator to start out with. the cardboard, blunt tips are not fun at all to use, especially for a beginner.
i wouldn't stress about the hymen issue. alot of girls are born without hymens at all and many girls can also break them during activity, such as bike riding, falling down onto something between the legs or falling into the splits, etc. i personally have no idea when mine was broken, i never had any bleeding or pain and it's definately gone by now.
good luck!

You didn't break your hymen with the tampon. Since you are still a virgin you haven't broken it that way, but if you have been heavy into sports I heard it can break that way. No big deal. Try different brands of tampons, some are better than others -- like the long skinny ones, not the short, fat ones. Use pads more often then you won't get that syndrome they warn about in the tampon info sheets.

intact hymen is not an accurate indication of virginity. your hymen may be intact but not a virgin anymore. some thick hymen can stand repeated sexual intercourse. conversely, you may have a broken hymen due to heavy sporting activity or masturbation but still a virgin. inexperience in sex is what makes a women virgin. btw, are you reserving your cherry for the right guy? good luck. cheers!

Your still a virgin w/o the hymen. You have to relax try a Jr tampon, you make just be small. or maybe a little KY jelly on the tip. Good luck and relax it's not a crisis. :-)

No, I don't have any pictures or diagrams.
Yes, you could have broken the hymen, but even if you broke it you are still a virgin.

no the tampon didn't break your hymen it is too far back for a tampon to break it. try laying down with your knees bent and relaxing to put one in, if you have to many problems, im told that helps.

do exactly no longer placed on them. in case you have tried it once you have been youthful and it did no longer artwork or circulate in, possibility is it continues to be in all possibility like that. do no longer possibility your well being purely for that. only stick to pads or despite you're employing now.

Here is a picture. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Hymen.png it's a little dark, so here's a photo; it's rather graphic, but you will see exactly what it looks like where it is located, and how fragile it is. http://www.defloration.tv/photo/karina/hymen.jpg
