There are two definitions of virginity. In many cultures, even today, the virginity test is an intact Hymen. In many of these cultures the women are very much repressed and do not have the active life style of western women.

In today's world the standard for virginity is not having had sexual intercourse. If your Hymen survives till your first intercourse that is a plus factor as well a making your first intercourse more painful.

Things that can cause a young prepubescent girl to break her Hymen would be being overly athletic. Sports such as running, Jumping doing splits could cause a Hymen to tear with little or no feeling. Horseback riding or bicycle riding is another possibility. Masturbation is also another way of tearing you Hymen. Then once you period arrives if you use a Tampon this too could tear your Hymen.

You doctor was wrong to tell you that you were no longer a virgin. He or she was using a cultural definition rather than the present world definition.

If you are still using the same doctor I would consider finding a new younger doctor who is more in step with today's practices. The old world practices are really out of step with today's medicine especially in the area of the female body and reproductive system.

I am not a doctor and I have more education then your obgyn...

No, Breaking your hymen does not detect whether or,whether not you are a virgin. In order to no longer be s virgin you would actually have to have sexual intercourse.

A hymen can be torn without even knowing. Something as simple as bike riding can do it this is not uncommon.
If you have not had sexual intercourse then you are a virgin.

There are sooo many ways to break your hymen other than sex. Many girls break theirs without even knowing it! And you're still a virgin until you actually have sex.

Rena-Chan is correct and your doctor is incorrect. There are many ways to tear your hymen besides intercourse. And having a torn hymen does not mean you're not a virgin. Losing your virginity happens when you first have intercourse.

Rena-Chan answered Friday January 25 2013, 1:18 pm:
There are several ways a hymen can break without having had sex. A friend of mine, when I was in 5th grade, had fallen off of the jungle gym or whatever they call it now-a-days at school, and fell on a bar, that hurt her between her legs, the result of the forceful impact had torn her hymen. Sometimes also, masturbation *being too rough with yourself* can also cause this. Pretty much, any form of rough/forceful trauma can tear your hymen, resulting in "not being a virgin". There are many factors which could cause a torn hymen.
