The hymen is on the outside of the vagina, covering it. It is tissue thin, and is usually broken or partially broken by the time a female reaches puberty. If it is not at least partially broken by the time a female begins her menstrual cycle, a doctor should be able to break it. This is rare though, as common day activitys , such as running, horseback riding or yoga can break the hymen. It has almost no nerve endings so it does not usually hurt. Bleeding typically only occurs if the thick middle is broken, or if the hymen is broken in a particularly violent manner.

What organ does urine exit the female body?

From the same place it exits the female body: the urethra. The male and female bodies are actually very similar in this regard; most female and male reproductive organs have a counterpart in the other sex. The main difference is that female organs are mostly inside the body, while male organs are mostly outside the body.


What is intermittent organ?

It's any organ that is used in INTERNAL fertilization by the male to place sperm inside of the female. This includes penises, but isn't limited to those particular organs. It also includes the "claspers" of chondrichthyes fish like sharks. These are technically fins, but are inserted inside the female's cloaca. A very small groove along the clasper carries sperm and semen along the outside of the clasper and into the female. There are lots of different adaptations among animals to go about internal fertilization, not just penises, so "intermittent organ" is a word to describe all of those organs as a group.

Where should you let hamsters breed?

only breed hamsters when the female is ready (stroke her back with your finger and look for a response). Never place a male inside a female hamsters cage, the female will attack as they are very territorial and can kill each other. Place both hamsters on common ground - a cardboard box (place some bedding in so it's not strange and stressful for it. Place the female in first if possible.
