Ok, so I think my hymen might have broken, but I'm still a virgin. I'm only 14, and sex seems like a scary thing to me. I think it might have broken while putting a tampon in. Later this month, I have a doctors appt, for kidney stones, and they have to go up inside me. I'm worried that if it really did break, they'll tell my mom. She would freak out. I don't think she'd believe that I've never had sex. Do you know maybe what I could do? Like, what I could maybe tell her?

The doctor's wouldn't tell your mother that your hymen was broken unless you were at risk of dying, and you aren't. Your doctor also isn't really checking to see if it's still intact, he/she's checking for kidney stones. Even if they did notice that it was broken, they are multiple reasons why it is. You can break your hymen not only from sex, but also common activities like bike riding, horseback riding, play sports, using a tampon, etc.
