first answer... Yes. (1. Sort of ... they come in many variations, none of which are very important unless it's imperforate (i.e. no opening).
second... (2. hey, i am 12 and i haven't had my piriod and i haven't had sex (OF COURSE! lol) but the first time i tried, i successfully fingered myself and it didn't hurt. i didn't bleed, and i felt no hymen. a hymen is a flap of skin over the vaginal opening. so, i think it is very possible that most girls do, but i didn't, so i guess some don't. so, not always do you have a hymen.
(3. i am not sure weather all girls do or not, but i think so. when i was seven, i was riding my horse bareback going over a small jump, and i think i broke my hymen because when i got home, my underwear was a little bloody and while landing the jump on the horse, i felt funny... kinda discomfort, but weirder... and when i bled in my undies, i know it was not my period because it was only that time. so i can't give you an answer, but i think this is helpful, because i am basically telling you that riding a bike, a horse, sports, and tampons are all ways of breaking a hymen, so people might think they don't have one and it might seem like they don't, but it could just be broken already. so, you can break one with out sex.

∙ 13y agoThe hymen is a layer of skin that partially covers the vaginal opening. Its shape and thickness varies from person to person.
Any penetration of the vagina can tear or break the hymen, depending on that shape and thickness. Sometimes strenuous sports can break it. A finger, a tampon, a sex toy, or a penis might break it. However, some hymens are simply too thick to break or substantially stretch without a great deal of effort and pain, in which case you may want to consider a hymenotomy (incision which widens the opening) or a hymenectomy (complete removal of the hymen).
Some are born without. The hymen is a remnant from when we were in the womb and the vaginal opening was supposed to be closed. Later on when born parts or all of it went away.

∙ 12y agoIt is a small piece of skin the covers the vaginal opening. It is generally broken the first time a girl has sexual intercourse but can also be broken inadvertently through other means. ie: use of tampons, masturbation, even riding a horse could tear the hymen due to the roughness to the vaginal area.

∙ 11y agoA hymen is usually small fold of tissue that partly closes the opening of the vagina and which usually defined as a girl's virginity. When it breaks, then the girl is said to have lost her virginity.

∙ 12y agoThe hymen is a membrane that surrounds or partially covers the external vaginalvulva, or external genitalia. The size of the hymenal opening increases with age. It is not possible to confirm with certainty that a woman is a virgin by examining her hymen. In cases of suspected rape or sexual abuse, a detailed examination of the hymen may be performed; but the condition of the hymen alone is often inconclusive. In younger children a torn hymen will typically heal very fast, in adolescents the hymenal opening does extend from natural causes and variation in shape and appearance increases. In children, although a common appearance of the hymen is crescent-shaped, many variations are possible. After a woman gives birth, she may be left with remnants of the hymen, called carunculae myrtiformes, or the hymen may be completely absent.

Doing masterburatoin in girls effect their hymen layer?
No, unless you break your hymen
Does everybody have a hymen?
No, not all girls are born with a hymen. The hymen is tissue left over from development within the womb - at one point there was no vaginal opening, as the vaginal opening developed the skin that was covering that area retracted and became the hymen, but not all girls were born with a hymen. The hymen can be worn away, stretched, or torn partly or fully but usually even if torn fully or worn away it doesn't disapear completely - it's still there, just no longer in tact. Although sometimes a doctor may cut away a woman's hymen for medical reasons. There are also then girls who were born biologically male, thus wouldn't have a hymen.
Are there any physical symptoms to losing your virgenity?
If a girls hymen has not already broken, it normally breaks the first time that she has sex. The hymen is a thin piece of skin at the entrance to the vagina. When it breaks, it can be a bit painful (kind of like burning and a bit like stinging) and there is sometimes some bleeding. Some girls don't experience any pain or bleeding when their hymen breaks though. However, the hymen is often broken during normal day-to-day activites such as cycling, horse riding, running, jumping, dancing, doing the splits etc. Some girls aren't born with a hymen.
Is it bad not to have a hymen?
Not at all. Most of the time it's not a choice you make. Some are born without ones and often it breaks by itself. The hymen is a remnant from when you were in the womb and the vaginal canal was supposed to be closed. It faded as you were closer to birth and as you were born it has no purpose.

Is there a layer to brake when you use a tampon?
No, there is no layer to break when using tampons. You may be getting confused about the hymen - this is tissue that surrounds the vaginal opening in some girls, however the hymen normally doesn't cover much of the vaginal opening so a tampon can easily pass through it, the hymen is also flexible so can stretch to accommodate larger things. Tampons can tear the hymen, but this is uncommon.
Can you break your cherry horseriding?
You cannot lose your virginity from horseriding. This question probably stems from the myth that a girls hymen (skin covering the vaginal entrance) can break from horseback riding. This is not a myth, but fact, but simply breaking your hymen does not mean that you have lost your virginity. Nowadays, many girls break their hymen before having any sexual contact. It is neither a good nor bad thing, just a fact of the world. Please do not stop doing something that you love, like horseriding, for fear of losing your virginity or breaking your hymen.
