Generally, it is thought that a hymen ruptures the first time a woman has sex, however due to the very active lifestyles we now lead, that is not neccessarily the case. For example, a woman's or girl's hymen can be broken during sports such as horse riding or bike riding. Some people are even born with a broken hymen.

Because it is a thin layer of tissue which contains blood vessels. When it is broken, it's like cutting your skin (but there will not be a stinging sensation like when you cut yourself), that tissue is being broken as well as the blood vessels.

The most common reason for a woman's hymen to break is because she has had sex. However, it can also be broken through day to day activities such as horse riding or riding a bike
