Answers:
If you are NOT on your period and wearing a tampon, then you can absorb the natural bacterial fighting mucous out of your vagina and leave yourself open to infection!. It is a moist environment and meant to be kept that way for that very reason!. The moisture pulls bacteria away from the surface and cleanses!. You need that balance and if you stick a dry tampon up there you will offset the balance and you may end up with a yeast infection or bacterial infection!. There is GOOD bacteria in your vagina and a tampon, while not on your period, will draw the good bacteria out and the bad bacteria will take over!.
During your period, even with the moisture still there during that time frame, you have to be careful to take the tampon out before 6-7 hours as you will then be prone to Toxic Shock Syndrome!. TSS: http://www!.fda!.gov/fdac/features/2000/20!.!.!.
If you are not on your period while using a tampon, this time frame becomes dramatically shorter!.

People worry too much!!! Whatever happened to common sense!? The way people on here go on sometimes, they'll have you believing it'll kill you within the hour! TSS is very RARE and you're no going to get it from going swimming with a tampon in!.
Obviously you wouldn't generally use tampons if you're not bleeding but!.!.!.!.!.I don't see any reason why you can't use a tampon to go swimming if you think your period is due!. It'll stop you fretting about it and let you enjoy your swim!. Just take it out again afterwards!. It's not like it will be in there all day!. Nothing terrible is going to happen for having a tampon inserted for a couple of hours!
Sounds like a simple and sensible solution to me!.
Just go ahead and do it and have a great day!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tampons should only be used when you're bleeding!. The best thing to do is just bring some with you!. When you're swimming you'll be fine, the blood slows down and you won't notice you have it!. But when you're not in the water just check to see if you do have it!. If so just go put a tampon in!. Hope I could help!Www@Answer-Health@Com

you never put a tampon in unless you're actually on your period!. if you think it's going to start today, just constantly check yourself in the bathroom and go from there!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
