Hi pippy,

Welcome to EmpowHER.  The hymen can also get broken or disrupted through tough physical activities.  Some girls are even born without a hymen.  Losing your virginity, depends more on having sexual intercourse the first time.  In some cultures, the breaking of the hymen is considered to be connected with virginity.  If there was penetration and he didn't use protection.  The chances of pregnancy is possible. 

Here are some resources for you

Best,
