Swimming with tampon?!


Question: Swimming with tampon!?
My family is going on vacation soon where swimming will be a major part of it (this resort with awesome pools and slides)!. I'm probably going to have my period for it!. This is the first time I'll have to swim with a tampon!. I already know how to use one, but I'm worried about swimming with one! How often do you have to change it!? Does it get filled up with water when you swim!? Plus what if it leaks!?!!!!!! HELP!! Thank you =)Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Don't use a super one, as the first answer says!. Just keep using the one you always use!.

Its not different at all!. Just make sure the string is tuck in somewhere so it doesn't peek out at all!. (I juts tuck it between the skin!.) You don't ahve to chnage it the moment you get out!. You can if you wish, but you can juts leave it in for the normal amount of time!. Some water will most lieky get sucked up through the string and into the tampon, but not alot!. So you don't need to worry about that!.
The only way it would leak, is if it is already filled to its max (But I would persoanlly put in a new tampon BEFORE going swimming to make sure that doesn't happen!.), or if it isn't inserted correctly!.

Don't worry!. Everything will be fine!. Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You change it as regularly as you normally would when your not swimming, maybe a little more but nothing major!. Just put a fresh one in before you go down to the pool then maybe change it at lunch and then again in the evening after you stopped swimming!. Use your normal absorbancy or if you feel more protected then a super but the water wont do much!. It shouldnt leak just keep an eye on it!. xxWww@Answer-Health@Com

i wouldn't worry!. just use the absorbancy you usually do!. you can change it like every 4-6 hours, depending on your flow!. i would suggest putting in a new one right before going swimming just so you know you won't leak!. i really don't think it fills with water while you swim!. it might get a little water in it, but that won't hurt anything!. enjoy swimming!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Use the biggest , most absorbent one you can use!. You should change the thing every two hour!. depending on the flow rate, you may be able to increase the time to 3 or 4 hours!. good luck, and happy swimming!!!!!!!!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

PLEASE make sure to change it every 2 hours!. If you dont, you could possibly end up in the hospital for toxic shock syndromeWww@Answer-Health@Com

Use a Super sized one!. Change it ever 2-4 hours!. Yes it'll be wet but it will still be absorbent!
Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
