Virginity can be commonly referred to as the state of a woman still having her hymen unbroken and intact because she has not engaged in sexual activities. Or a situation whereby no penetration or force could have led to the breaking of the hymen. That is why a person who hasn’t experienced sexual relationships is regarded as a virgin.
The topic of this article could be rephrased to questions like, “Can the hymen grow back?” “Does the hymen determine virginity?”
The answer to the first question is no. The hymen can not grow back once it has been stretched open; it opens once on the first time of penetration and can not break again, and neither can it grow back to being closed.
However, The hymen is a thin fleshy tissue embedded across the parts of your vaginal opening. Forceful penetrations into the vagina can stretch the hymen open, breaking it. Most people think that vaginal sex is the only way the hymen can be broken. No, other activities can make a woman lose her virginity aside from sex, and they include;
- Inserting hard objects forcefully inside the vagina.
- Stretching the walls of the hymen by using tampons and sex toys.
- Masturbating by using your fingers to massage your vagina frequently. You could be breaking the hymen unknowingly.
- Riding bicycles and doing gymnastics a lot.
- Participating in severe stressful and vigorous exercises.
The second question is, does the hymen determine your virginity?
There is no doubt that the hymen is closely related to virginity. But this is not always the case. This is because it is commonly believed that the hymen must break during a woman’s first sexual intercourse, thereby causing blood to rush out of the vagina.
Different women are created with varying sizes of the hymen. Some women have their own very big, tightly stretched, and hard to break into. That is why they feel so much pain during their first sex, which leads to blood rushing out of the vagina due to the tear.
While other women have a very thin and unnoticeable hymen that even during their first sexual intercourse, they feel no pain or have no blood gushing out because their hymen is so tiny and could be naturally opened already; hence, it has no reason to tear.
So, for this reason, the hymen does not determine virginity because other factors aside from sexual activities could lead to the breaking of the hymen. Besides, you can not also tell if someone has had sex by how their hymen looks or feels.
