Patient's question:
I have had sex with my boyfriend many times. Every time he only entered a little bit, not fully, and I didn't bleed, but it was a bit painful. He said I'm still a virgin because he felt my hymen. Am I still have a hymen?Doctor's answer:
If a virgin doesn't bleed the first time, there are many reasons. First, your hymen might be very thick. Second, your boyfriend's penis is relatively small. Third, your hymen may have already torn for other reasons, and you might not know. To determine the exact reason, a gynecological examination can clarify this. Gynecologists can simply identify whether the hymen is torn just by looking.
