Normal hymen: A normal hymen is a circle of elastic tissue around the vagina opening, like a stretchy bracelet. If you've had menstrual periods, its very likely you have a normal hymen. Normal hymens vary in how they look and its a myth that the hymen always breaks with sex; the skin usually just stretches. An MD can examine you and reassure you about your hymenal tissue if you're concerned

Hymen gone?: At age 50, unless you are a virgin, your hymen is long gone. It actually frequently tears accidentally in childhood with mild trauma to genital region. If not then usually tears with first sexual penetration. Area then heals and you no longer have a hymen.
