Hymen is a tissue which is present around the vaginal opening and in turn has an opening in it, which allows the menstrual fluid to pass out of the body. The hymen has been long associated with virginity, as it usually ruptures or breaks during sexual intercourse. There are however various conditions where the hymen might break without sex.
