Hymen
I had sex and my hymen broke i believe. But i only bled for 2 days, and i was in some pain but it wasn't pain like my period. My period last normally for 5-6 days. It wasn't a lot of bleeding but it wasn't just spotting either. Is that normal?

In short, it doesn't matter if you bleed when your hymen is broken or not--your period is not affected by such. A lot of women experience late periods after losing their virginity because they begin to stress over a possible pregnancy, thus delaying the period a few days.
The hymen usually has a small hole in it as it is. A hymen is made of very thin tissue and it is fairly easy to tear or stretch. It's located at the entrance to the vagina so, actually, it isn't inside of the vagina. The hole is there to allow menstrual blood to escape the body and is usually too small to accommodate an entire penis to enter the vagina without being stretched.
If you do have vaginal intercourse and you do not completely break/tear your hymen it will stretch out and create a larger hole, just as your vagina will naturally stretch out to accommodate the penis. Some hymens are elastic enough to permit a penis to enter without tearing, or they will tear only partially, and there may be no bleeding at all.
The blood that comes out of your body during your menstruation is actually the lining of your uterus being expelled because of an unfertilized egg. Your body does this, in short, to rid itself of the waste (egg that can no longer be used). Losing your virginity has nothing to do with this part really and you should still be experiencing your regular cycle (maybe a few days off because of the stress of worry).
Bleeding for a short period time over your torn hymen is nothing to be concerned over; however, two days is a little much. The bleeding has NOTHING to do with your normal period though. The bleeding you experienced is not considered a period at all.
It's normal to bleed when a party of your body is torn, but it isn't typical to bleed for two days. You may want to see a doctor to make sure you do not have an internal injury.
Your period should come on time, just like usual.
I hope you become better informed of your body. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask me :)

Of course! You're breaking a tissue in your body, you're supposed to bleed :D

It's totally normal for you to bleed a little when your hymen breaks. No big deal.
