Did my hymen break ? No sexual intercourse , only fingering Posted: 07-17-07 11:36am
I am 19 and have not had sexual
intercourse. The other night the guy I
was with fingered me. This was not the
first time this had happend to me but the
person I was with before was much more
gentle and this time he did it so hard
that I bled. Not just a few spots either,
but a good amount. It has been three days
and I am still spoting a bit. I thought
maybe I was starting my period, because it
is irregular so I don't know exactly when
to expect it, but it is very light spoting
and normally my peroid is heavier. Is
this normal? Was this my hymen breaking?
Will I bleed next time I engage in this?
Will I bleed when I have sexual
intercourse for the first time or does
this only happen once?

You might have injured your your hymen
during the last episode of fingering.
Blood and beeding from a broken hymen
usually stops very soon after it is
punctured (usually during the first act of
sexual intercourse) but sometimes the
bleeding might last longer. If your hymen
has broken when he fingered you, you
probably won’t bleed during the next
sexual encounter you have. Bleeding
happens only once (during the first time).
Nonetheless, you can visit your
gynecologist to identify the true source
of the bleeding.
