I have a table which already contains an index in MySQL. I added some rows to the table, do I need to re-index the table somehow or does MySQL do this for me automatically?

This would be done automatically. This is the reason, why sometimes we don’t want to create indexes — rebuilding of parts of indexes on inserting have small but not empty overhead in performance.
