Can a pregnancy test tell whether you are a virgin or not?

Answer 1

No. Checking for 'virginity' (in its clinical term) would require a medical exam to determine whether the hymen is intact. However, this cannot be a confirmation as to whether a woman has or has not had sexual relations.

Girls quite regularly can have their hymens torn or rupture through everyday activities such as sports. Hymens can also become ruptured through the insertion of foreign objects or even, in some instances, during personal hygiene, such as using tampons, washing, (douches), etc.

Additionally, the hymenal membrane may need to be corrected to assist with normal menstruation or as a precursor to anticipated sexual intercourse. A Hymenectomy (hymenotomy) is a minor medical procedure involving the surgical removal or opening of the hymen. It is done to treat an imperforate hymen or other situations where the hymen is unusually thick or rigid, in order to allow normal menstruation or sexual intercourse. An imperforate hymen can lead to hematometra or hematocolpos.

In some cultures, so misunderstood is the female body by both men and women that extreme measures are taken to ensure that a woman encounters discomfort, pain, and even blood, during the first act of intercourse.

It's a sad fact that in some cultures, due to the ignorance of an individual or an entire society, that people have paid to have a hymen reconstructed. There have even been anecdotal reports of women deliberately injecting animal blood into their vaginas as proof that a wedding was consummated and that the wife was a virgin. Family members deliberately inspect bed linens in search of blood as proof.

Hopefully, through education, and common sense, these absurdities will soon disappear.
