Janice Recently Began Menstruating

Question 12

Multiple Choice

Janice recently began menstruating. She has heard from her friends that she should not use tampons because that would make her lose her virginity. What information can you offer Janice?


A) A majority of females are born without hymens, so most likely using tampons will not be a problem.
B) If she has an imperforate hymen, she can use tampons. An annular hymen will interfere with use of tampons.
C) Most hymens have openings that will easily allow a tampon to be inserted. The presence or absence of a hymen is not an indicator of virginity.
D) The hymen protects the vagina from disease; thus she should not insert anything into the vagina. She should refrain from any vigorous activity that could rupture the hymen.
