What does it feel like when your hymen breaks? Does it hurt?

There are actually some symptoms after the rupture of the hymen. The most obvious one is bleeding. However, some women may not bleed when their hymen ruptures during their first sexual intercourse. Therefore, bleeding cannot be used as the only criterion for judgment.

1. Symptoms of ruptured hymen

Due to the different shapes and toughness of the hymen, some people's hymen will break while others will not during the same exercise; the appearance after rupture is also very different. It can be said that even very experienced gynecologists may find it difficult to explain the exact causes of some ruptured hymen marks. Clinically, it is even seen that some women still have a very intact hymen during pregnancy and childbirth.

2. Causes of ruptured hymen

The rupture of the hymen is caused by external force. Whether masturbation and sexual behavior before marriage will lead to a breakup is a question that everyone is concerned about. This mainly depends on the method of masturbation and sexual behavior. Generally speaking, most people masturbate in a stroking manner, which stimulates the external genitalia. As long as objects or fingers are not forced into the vagina, the hymen will not be torn. Some young girls have written to say that they have put their fingers inside their vaginas to masturbate. This may cause the hymen to rupture, but the degree of rupture may not be very serious. Because when masturbating, people will have a natural protective reflex and will not resort to violence. Premarital sex often takes place under stressful circumstances. Both parties have no sexual experience and lack sexual knowledge. Some people's sexual behavior is limited to the vulva, that is, the penis ejaculates and becomes flaccid before piercing the hymen and entering the vagina. In this way, the hymen will not be broken.

3. How to determine if the hymen is ruptured

It is very difficult for ordinary people to correctly judge whether the hymen has been broken. Girls can examine themselves in the mirror or gently touch their vulva to compare the condition of the hymen before and after the accident, such as tightness, elasticity, pain, etc. If the above changes are obvious and there is bleeding during the incident, it can be basically determined that the hymen has been ruptured. It is easier to distinguish the rupture of the hymen after multiple sexual intercourse. If confirmed, you can seek examination from an experienced gynecologist.
