Honestly, they may think you've had sex, but there's no sure fire way for them to know.
Oh, and by the way, masturbation and sex aren't the only ways your hymen (cherry) will break (pop).
It can happen from riding a bike, running, doing a split, riding a horse, wearing a tampon, etc.
So just because your hymen has broken doesn't mean you've had sex.
Don't worry, your gyno won't know 100% if you're a virgin or not unless you actually tell them. Which if you aren't one you should tell them just so they can make sure you don't have any STD's. I'm not saying you aren't one (it's better if you are since you're so young), I'm just saying when you lose your virginity if you haven't already then let them know. Because of doctor/patient confidentiality they aren't supposed to inform anyone, including your parents. [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]

winteromancex answered Tuesday June 26 2007, 11:32 pm: No, you're safe. A doctor can only see that the hymen is broken (cherry is popped), however there is no way to tell that, that happened through sexual activity or masturbation because normal activities such as sports, biking, horseback riding etc can break the hymen. Without you telling the gyno there is no way for her to know. [ winteromancex's advice column | Ask winteromancex A Question ]
