The cervix is a cylindrical neck of tissue that connects the vagina and uterus, playing a role in menstruation and childbirth. The hymen is a thin membrane that partially covers the opening of the vagina, commonly present in females at birth but can be stretched or torn due to activities like sex or physical activities.

Would you notice a difference between your period and you just popping your cherry with a tampon?

You don't have a cherry and nothing pops - your hymen can be torn from tampon use but it's very uncommon as the hymen doesn't usually cover much of the vaginal opening and it is flexible so can stretch to allow items into the vagina without tearing. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference between menstrual blood and bleeding from the hymen tearing - however bleeding from the hymen tearing is actually fairly uncommon. You could feel discomfort or a release in pressure once the tampon clears the vaginal opening if the hymen was in the way, or you could potentially see the tear if you compare the hymen before and after tampon use.


If girl is born without hymen then from where her blood flows out?

Your menstrual blood flows out of your uterus through your cervix, and then out of your vagina. This is how things work for all women. Your hymen is simply a fold of mucosa membrane which partially covers the opening of your vagina. All women are born with a hymen, but in some it is so small as to be virtually undetectable.
