The perineum is the space between the vagina and the anus. It's possible that someone trying to insert a tampon into a dry vagina could tear the perineum, but that would be unusual. Perhaps alcohol played a part?

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 tampons cause devirginity?

There's no such thing as 'devirginity' - you are a virgin, or you're had sex.A virgin is someone who has not had sex, it is a social construct not a physical state of being - it's nothing more than a word. You are a virgin up until you have sex with another person, tampons are not another person and using tampons is not sex...thus tampons do not change you being a virgin.Tampons can tear the hymen but it's unlikely - the hymen is tissue that surrounds the vaginal opening, there's normally enough room for a tampon to fit through, and the hymen is flexible so will stretch to accommodate larger items - the hymen is usually only torn from rough or forced penetration. Even if torn the hymen has absolutely nothing what-so-ever to do with virginity, it's just skin.


Will using tampons at a young age deflower you?

Deflowering refers to the hymen being torn - tampons at any age shouldn't tear the hymen.The hymen doesn't cover much of the vaginal opening and the hymen is flexible so it can stretch to accommodate things being inserted vaginally, as long as insertion isn't rough or the tampon isn't forced through the hymen it shouldn't tear. The hymen cannot be torn from things such as running or acrobatics, it can only be torn via vaginal penetration or childbirth, the hymen can no more tear from activity than any other tissue in your body.
