fingering - it hurts!

My boyfriend has fingered me once before, it hurt a fair bit, but this time when he tried to do it it hurt so much I was almost in tears. My friends told me it was because it was a few days before my period was due, is this true? Does your cycle affect how much it hurts?

I doubt it has anything to do with your cycle.  Were you wet before he started fingering you?  Were his nails long or freshly trimmed?  How many fingers is he putting in you?  Maybe he needs to put fewer in or keep his nails at a short length and filed so they're not sharp.  Perhaps you need more foreplay to get you wetter or lube.

He probably touched ur cervix and that's painful. Make him wash his hands before he puts them in u. Sometimes men don't pay too much attention to their hand being clean especially if the job they do or other activities involve getting their hands dirty (car repairs, working with soil etc.)
