Answers:
You cannot wear pads while swimming it wil go into the water and if the pad leaks it will be embarrasing, trust me all girls know what its like!. Also its a health concern for other in the pool, and you!. Your best bet is to try a tampon, there a little werid at first but once you get used to them wich takes only like 2 minuites there so much better than pads!. Also pads buch up and tampons dont move around or anything like that cause they have a way of staying in there!. If you are going to actually use a tampon I would try using Playtex Sport, Tampax pearl or anything that says active or 360 protection on the box!

If you use pads while swimming, the pads will soak all the water up and it will look like you have a package!. And the "your period stops in the water" thing is a TOTAL lie!. Ask your mom [if you're a teen] or a trusted woman about tampons!. They're not that scary!. they're really comfortable, easy to insert and remove, and if you get it in right [which is really easy to do] you cant even feel them!
If you do get tampons!. Get Tampax Pearl with the Plastic Applicator!. Dont ever get cardboard, those can be kind of uncomfortable when you're putting them in!. But the plastic applicator slides right in and slides right out!. theres instructions on the box too!.
Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

everything is sooo bad about using a pad whilst swimming!.

your in denial if you think you can do it!.!.!.

1!. It defeats the purpose because the pad will absorb the water, thus leaving no room to absorb your period!.

2!. When it absorbs the water it will puff up and be highly noticiable!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

lol xD ok wow no you can't wear pads in the water its like a baby wearing a diaper and also the sticky stuff will come off as well wow!.!.!.please don't!.!.!.!.
no theres nothing else you can wear instead of a tampon
and tampons aren't scary I dunno why most people on here think that
I'm guessing your younger
but just try the tampon or just sit out those days
DO NOT swim without one
and for gods sake PLEASE don't wear a pad!.!.!.ay!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

the sticky stuff is affected by water, and itll come off!.
and its probably not too hot for everyone to be staring at your sanitary towel floating in the pool!
also, if it does keep sticking, itll absorb water and become huge, and itll feel absolutely disgusting!.!.!.

Pads would soak up pool or lake water and blood would get into the water in which you are swimming!. Gross and embarrassing!. if you truly do not want to use tampons and you are not a virgin I suggest using a soft cup such as Instead!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

They get wet and leak and obviously, don't do their job!. I hate tampons, but I wear them for swimming, and it's not bad because being in the water relieves the uncomfortableness for me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

silly girl, a pad will absorb a lot of water, and get really huge, and be obvious to whomever looks at you, not to mention uncomfortable!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
