A member asked:
I felt a pinch while inserting a tampon for the first time. could it be possible that i broke my hymen? am i still a virgin?

You're likely correc: The hymen it is a relatively thin membrane in the vaginal canal and most females don't even know when it being torn..I.E during first relation or tampon use/vaginal exam/pap with speculum etc.. Some discomfort is common and the sensation you felt is hightly indicative of the hymen being torn during first insertion. If you have any other trouble, consult your doc... Good luck.
