Question: How can a doctor tell if a girl is a virgin?
my hymen is broken, but its not from sex, and my mom doesnt trust me so she wants to take me to the doctor to see if im a virgin, will the doctor tell her im NOT a virgin since my hymen is broken? how can he tell if i am or if im not? i really am a virgin so im afraid since my hymen is broken, she'll get mad at me

Answers:

Doctors cannot tell whether you're a virgin. You're mother should trust you, but more importantly, she should mind her own business. You should not be given a pelvic exam unless YOU want one for MEDICAL reasons (convincing your mom of your virginity is not a medical reason). If its not medically important, most doctors will not perform a pelvic exam if you don't want one, no matter what your parents request.

If you go to the doctor, go to address your mother's misinformation about virginity. A doctor should be able to explain to your mother that he cannot tell if you're a virgin and that he will not perform an exam without medical cause.

Even if you are a minor, you have the right to privacy and control over your own body. No one should see your private areas without your consent. Your mother needs to understand this. A good doctor can back you up in this, but defending your rights comes down to you. Stand up for yourself.



I'm not really sure the doctor will be able to tell, very doubtful since doctors are smart and they do know it is possible to break your hymen many different ways. The opening however though should be tighter than a sexually active person, but even this is a bad way to judge.



You can't tell. Did you get your period? Do you use tampons? Doctors can't tell if your a virgin if you use tampons because your constantly putting something in and taking something out of your vagina.

The hymen breaks when your in your puberty stages, its natural.



Your hymen can break from numerous things such as tampons, horseback riding, etc. It's wrong for your mother not to trust you. I highly doubt a doctor can tell if someone is a virgin or not. For all you know, maybe she's just saying all of this to see your reaction.



They take a culture sample from yur vagina and test it for dna, sperm stuff or latex from a condem, but I really dnt think you can go in to the docter to check that, only if its like rape or something



Just talk to the doc. It'll work out. usually they inspect the walls and it will really hurt if they decide to crack you open just stay calm



He can't tell. There's no way to tell. Your hymen can be broken from a number of things i.e masturbation and tampon use.



A doctor legally can't tell your mother if you don't want them to....



Doctors can't tell if you're a virgin or not. your mother is being stupid if she thinks this. She should trust you.
