Does swimming break the hymen? I learn swimming and I so much like to swim. But I heard that it can break the hymen. I feel scared now. Please explain me what is the truth about that. Thank you.

Yes. It's just myth that hymen is ruptured only during intercourse only it ruptures during strenuous exercises and swimming etc.
