A member asked:

My vagina itches and i scratched a lot there last night. i woke up this morning and saw blood on my underwear. i'm not on my period. broke my hymen??

Hard to say: Blood is usually a reflection of tissue injury. Where/what was injured in that area is hard to pin down without looking. Perhaps you can position a mirror & light in a way you can see. Most such scratching produces a shallow tissue tear that self heals. Just keep the area clean.
