In the past I've, erm... experimented with putting things 'up there', and the most I can fit is about 5" - but it wont go any further and I'm worried about TSS (toxic shock syndrome) or anything worse. I tried last night, and this morning I woke up to my period having started, which seems slightly heavier and more painful than normal. Could I have broken my hymen? If so, why did I not bleed straight after?Any help appreciated, thanks

You could develop an infection and that would be embarrassing for you to explain.....an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
One more thing, make sure you don't use anything wooden or glass! Think splinters or cuts, ouch. In a pinch, cucumbers work well.

5" is about normal I should have thought, depending on the angle of insertion. Scroll down to see a cutaway drawing and a load more interesting reading. Should keep you busy for about 10 minutes or so. Hope it loads ok!

hi there,
many people brake they're hymen by doing normal everyday things like gymnastics, ridin a bike, horse riding etc...
but sometimes you don't bleed a lot wen u brake your hymen.
most peole don't brake they'r hymen when masturbating, but due during sex... i broke mine the second time i had sex, the first time wasn't painful or anything, but the second time was.
TSS is also very rare, so i wouldnt worry about that :)
but you are probably having a heavy period.
hope this helps x
