I'm wondering if inserting two fingers into my vagina means that my hymen is broken. Does the easier insertion indicate anything specific about the state of my hymen? I'm kind of concerned and would love some insights.

Normally you can't insert a single finger also so yes it can break the hymen

I've been having abdominal pain for about 3 to 4 days now and I recently took a Spasmonil tablet, but it hasn't really helped. In the past, my doctor mentioned something about an infection after my hysterectomy. Could this be connected? What should I do next?

Given your history of hysterectomy and current abdominal pain, it's essential to consult your doctor to rule out any complications or infections related to the previous surgery; while Spasmonil may provide temporary relief from pain and spasms, it's crucial to investigate the underlying cause of your symptoms, which could be related to adhesions, bowel obstruction, or other post-surgical complications.
