I have noticed that there are a lot of young females who do not know exactly what their Hymen looks like or where it is. Hopefully I can help.
Nikolita- Feel free to move this. I was uncertain if it went in the Sex or the Puberty thread. sweatdrop
Your Hymen is a thin membrane that covers the Vaginal Opening. It looks like a thin bit of skin. Some of you may have touched it and seen it without noticing that it was even there. There is a hole in your hymen big enough to allow menstrual flow. Some females are born with one hole, two holes or many small holes. Those who are born with out a hole in their Hymen, have one surgically made at birth. Some women are even born without a hymen!
The thickness and felxibility of your Hymen depends on hormones. This is why before puberty it is so easy to break your hymen through things such as riding a bike, falling off of monkey bars -like me- or through some sports. It is possible to break your hymen with a tampon, but usually at this stage of life, it's flexible enough to not break. But it is possible!
So now you might be interested in trying to look at your Hymen. This is fairly simple with the use of a hand mirror. It's best to do this someplace safe like a bathroom or your bedroom with the door locked.
You should see something Similiar to this. Although All Vulvas DO NOT look alike.
