    Question

    Almost every time my boyfriend fingers me, I end up bleeding and it hurts. Could he be breaking my hymen, or could he be damaging the inside of my vagina? And if he is damaging it, is there any way to stop it?

    Answer

    I am sorry if I am dense, but why on Earth do you allow your boyfriend to hurt you and make you bleed repeatedly? This certainly does not sound pleasurable and I suggest you stop it. Changes are good your hymen is long gone, but bleeding each time suggests damage. Please stop or see a doctor.
