Doubtful: You may have injured it trying to get the tampon in but doubt that you fully broke it.

Maybe: A tampon may not be a good choice for you if you have a vaginal entrance including a narrow hymenal opening.The tampon will increase in diameter (size) as it absorbs menstrual blood.If you are having trouble getting it is, you will have more when you remove it and would tear the hymen in the process.
