Hi, okay so this is kind of awkward and weird... I have this weird thing happening with me.. I've started bleeding down there and it hasn't stopped but it's not time for my period.. It's like a different kind of blood. I don't do sports or anything but I've tried putting a tampon in when I was on my period two months ago and I noticed when I tried taking it out.. It got caught on something, and I now know it's my hymen. I don't know if I've broken the barrier or anything.. Is that even possible? Please help.. I'm worried and I don't talk to my mother about this.

Yes, you can easily break the hymen with a tampon. But bleeding from that usually lasts a few minutes, less common is hours, less common still is a few days. How long has it been? Are you sure you haven't started a period? How is the blood different - thinner, no clots? The menstrual blood can vary a lot, from thin and pink or red to thick and brown or orange or bright red to dark red. It depends on how much exposure to air it had.
As for telling your mother - take the plunge of getting over the idea that she will be uncomfortable. She'll be pleased that you are asking for her knowledge and advice.

I've had my period for this month on the 1st and it stopped on the 6th or 7th. The blood is not the normal for me it's thin with no clots at all.. And I had my tampon in a while ago about two months.. And I've taken it out of course but nothing happened then.. It's just randomly started bleeding. It's probably nothing, but I kind of just want to make sure.

OK, that sounds like mid cycle bleeding, normal. It's when you ovulate, and can have no bleeding, a tiny amount of spotting, all the way to quite a bit of blood.

But is it normal to have pain? Like it's painful for two minutes and then stops.. Or is just nothing I should be worried about at all?
