Does masturbation break the hymen?

Patient's question:

Earlier, this situation had never occurred. Recently, I've noticed small amounts of blood appearing intermittently. Medical history and treatment effectiveness: This was the first time I've experienced this. What kind of help I need: I want to ask you what's wrong with me? Is it possible that my hymen is no longer intact? Or is this phenomenon considered irregular menstruation? Please, I really want to know what's happening with my body and what I should do.

Doctor's answer:

When the hymen is torn, there may be a sense of pain, and there will be bleeding. If you accidentally tear the hymen, you will have such a feeling. If not, it is generally not torn. As for whether masturbation can lead to the tearing of the hymen, it depends on the way and intensity of the stimulation during masturbation. Since the size of the hymen opening in unmarried women varies from person to person, and it is difficult to control the intensity of stimulation, if fingers are easily inserted into the vagina, there is a high chance of tearing the hymen. Therefore, it is hoped that unmarried women will be self-disciplined and self-respecting, not seeking instant gratification, which may lead to misunderstandings and troubles in the future. Masturbation may also cause conditions such as vulvitis, urinary tract infections, and vaginitis.
