    masturbated and now im soo scared

    ok i am 17 i am a virgin and i do masturbate i am not ashamed to say but i wanted to to take my exploring a little bit further than clitoral stimulation. so i thought i would try using a dildo i never used one before it was my first time and i did enter it into my vagina about 5 inches and pulled right back out because i experienced a little discomfort and i read an article saying during sex if there is discomfort that something isnt right with be being turned on and lubrication ect. and all that jazz but anyway the thing i want to know is now that ive done this i am still considered a virgin correct.?? and do i need to start making visits to a OBGYN now that i put something in my vagina.? and is there anything i should know now that ive done this.? please sophisticated answers thanks alot.!

    Whether or not you are a virgin is entirely up for you to decide. A hymen can be broken by non-sexual behavior and is sometimes not broken during sex. I think it is VERY unlikely you injured yourself so don't worry.

      Sweetie the hymen is just a bit of skin and the only meaning it has is what you assign to it. I don't think putting something into your vagina makes you a non virgin, do you use tampons? Why would that be any different?

      The word virgin originally meant an independant woman. I'm over 50, have had two kids and few dozen men or more and under that old definition could be called a virgin. I'm in no hurry to lose that. Actually I've given it up a few times and don't advise it. LOL

      If you are aroused and lubricated, sex should not be painful. Sometimes the first time is but in many cases I think that is because we've had so many hangups fed to us that we are just too tense to open up to it. You go right on ahead and explore. Find what works for you and pleasures you, that will help you have a much better sex life when you are ready to have a partner.

      No this does not mean that you need to start visiting the OB/GYN. You probably should in the next couple years to just as part of a well woman check and certainly if you decide to become sexually active with a partner you need to get educated about your sexual health and what conception control would be best for your situation.
