People have a misconception that there is this thick, giant 'thing' in the vagina (the cherry or hymen) and that when it pops, blood rains down - and that's that. It's not quite that simple.
In reality, the hymen is a very thing piece of skin. It is almost certainly partially or completely dissolved by mid-teens. Your period has to flow past it, so if you're getting your period while you're a virgin you know your hymen has at least an area big enough for blood to pass through.
Most girls bleed from sex due to the stretching of the vagina. This is why someone could lose their virginity and still bleed or experience pain the first few times they have sex. If you only had sex a few times and then went for a long time without it, your body has not had a chance to adjust. It's normal that you might experience some discomfort or some spotting.
If the bleeding is heavy, or if it does not stop within a few hours, you'll want to see a doctor. This can be a sign of a more serious problem.
Best of luck.
