breaking your hymen doesn't take away your virginity, having sexual intercourse takes away your virginity, so there is no reason why you couldn't wear a tampon. However, if you still feel uncomfortable, talk about it with your mom or your grandma or aunt or someone who can tell you about tampons and the risks associated with them. Good Luck!

Of course it is okay! It may break your hymen but that doesn't mean you're not a virgin anymore. Some girls break theirs at a really young age playing sports for example so it's even possible yours is no longer intact. It will not harm you using a tampon while you're a virgin. Just make sure to use the smallest size available to avoid a too tight of a fit. Good luck! Read the instructions that comes in the pack or talk to your mom, sister, friend for some advice.

Tampons won't exchange your virginity - as long as you do not have sexual kin (intercourse) you're a virgin. putting tampons would be a sprint uncomfortable for a on an identical time as - yet interior of a hour you will not additionally be conscious that your are wearing one. in case you nevertheless experience it - then you definitely have not inserted it properly - it rather is going to be up a minimum of two to 3 inches.

Sure it is ok. Being a virgin means you haven't had sex. An intact hymen has nothing to do with virginity. A hymen can be broken for many other reasons,such as exercise or playing sports.

It is perfectly fine to wear tampons when you are a virgin. There already is a small hole in your hymen that allows the menstrual fluid out of your body.

Well if you want your hymen to remain intact, then don't wear a tampon. If that's not important to you, then go ahead and insert a tampon. Either way, it's all okay.

YES! I had asked my doctor when I was younger, I was afraid of the same thing he said it did not and would not break the hymen!
