Are there any ways that your hymen (sp?) can be broken besides sex? Like using tampons, fingering, etc? And can a doctor tell if its broken or not just by looking@ u down there? (like check ups andstuff)

Your hymen is the thin skin on the outside of your vagina. You can not tear your hymen accept for when you have sex.

ride a bike or ride a horse. especilly if you go over bumbs in the road or something on the bike. my mom was reading about it in this health book and told me about it.

its a think piece of skin it think.
but it can get broken before sex. by riding a bike and other things, it does not automatically break if you us a tampon, although it may.

it can be torn from excercizing,sports, or intense bike riding. A doctor will be able to tell though.. hope i helped

The hymen is a thin mucus membrane that covers the opening of the vagina. There are many ways it can break, like playing sports, horseback riding, and yes tampons and sexual intercourse, as well as fingering. I'd doubt the doctor would question you about it, because the hymen can also wear away due to menustrating ( it tends to do that if you've been menustrating for more than three years) The only way a doctor or anyone would know would be by looking "down there". For some girls,it hurts when it breaks, other girls don't feel anything. Like when I first used a tampon, all I felt was a little bit of pressure and that was it, but some other girls hymen is so stiff, they have to go to the doctor to get it broken (ouch!)I hope I told you what you wanted to know.

it can be broken in different ways and no the doctor has to look down there to know if its broken.

It is a really thin bit of skin inside most, but not all, womens vagina.
It is very fragile and most peoples break when they are young. You can break it by horse-riding, gymnasticas doing the splits etc etc.
If it wasn't already broken then if you used tampons of anything entered your vagina then it would break.
Occasionally you bleed a little when it breaks, although not everyone does (infact most of my friends and I didn't feel a thing)
A doctor would be able to tell if if were broken or not, but not just by looking, they would have to do an internal examination to check.
Hope this helped!

A hymen is a thin piece of skin that is inside a woman's vagina that can be torn by physical means. You know when it breaks when you start to bleed one day and you start to feel a little bit of pain inside of you. It doesn't get torn when you use a tampon or if you are getting fingered but if you insert a tampon in wrong, it could rip. You can tear your hymen by masturbating, sitting wrong, playing sports like horseback riding, riding a bike, and other ways too. Hope I helped :)

The hymen is a flap of skin in a woman's vagina. Not all women are born with hymens. Some women are born with hymens that don't stretch all the way across, or ones that have holes in them.
The doctor can tell what your hymen current looks like if s/he looks inside your vagina. However, a complete gynecological exam can also cause a hymen to be broken. A doctor can't tell if the hymen was always like that, how long ago it changed, or what caused a change in it's appearance.
Many things can cause a hymen to break or rip. Horseback riding and gymnastics are commonly mentioned non-sexual activities. Mine ripped when I was in gymnastics, and bled a tiny tiny bit (literally 3 drops in my underwear - I was excited because I thought I had gotten my first period).
If the hymen is both intact and spread across the entire entrance to the vagina, tampons, fingers, or penises cannot enter the vagina without tearing it. If the hymen was not spread across the entire vagina, it may be pushed aside instead of ripping.
Most of the time, you don't know if your hymen is broken. You may feel a slight twinge, or there may be a few drops of blood, but I'm under the impression that most women experience neither.

Horseriders can actually break theirs.. and gymnasts. depending on if you put strain on yur muscles.

It can be broken by being fingered, a tampon, masturbating, over stretching. There are really many ways it can be broken, sometimes even a lil torn wich will still cause the bleeding. as for the doctor part...iono, i never thought to ask.
]
yeah, even like sitting on a horse and stuff. yours is probably broken already, not to be mean but its really easy to break it, i think
]
yes
age will deteriorate it.
sports can break it, as can horseback riding.
There are many ways to cause it damage.
