Yes,
they use tampons.You practice putting in the tampon by first using
the skinniest-sized tampon -- "slender" or "slim." Also dab a bit of
water-based lube on the outside of the tampon to make the "sliding
in" easier. Using a tampon is a two-step process: you slide in the
applicator and then "push the plunger," thereby inserting the
tampon. You could practice guiding in the tampon first, without
pushing the "plunger," so that you can practice finding the place
and angle for insertion. As for breaking or not breaking the hymen
is it important to you. Is it important that you have an intact
hymen? Are religious reasons involved? Or cultural reasons? Or
curiosity? Hymens come in various shapes and designs. If your hymen
is still intact and shaped like a person-hole cover, or a septum (a
thin line of skin which divides the center of the vaginal opening,
as does the septum of our nose), then this thin membrane of skin may
stretch or break. On the other hand, if you have a hymen shaped like
a crescent moon around the bottom or side of the vaginal opening,
then tampons may not interfere at all.
Interestingly, not all women
are born with hymens, and hymens can break without women knowing it.
Strenuous activities, such as bicycle riding, horseback riding,
stretching, or dancing, can also cause the hymen to break. Lastly, a
woman's hymen could have already been broken or stretched by sexual
activity, even if she has not had a penis inside of her.
