Question: I am going to a pool party, and i am on my period!. Does anyone know something i could do!?
I am totally against tampons, and if you are about to say either don't go , or go, but don't swim, then just don't reply at all!. I really want to swim, but i dont think wearing a pad in t he pool is such a good idea!. If you have any home remidies or advice on what to do, then please tell me!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Actually, there IS a way! If you're able at all, take a quick shower (w/o any tampons or pads on/in) before hopping in the pool!. Water actually temporarily reduces/stops the flow while it's present!. So, take a shower, let the blood flow until it stops (you have to release what was already there), soak your bathing suit and put it on (soaking wet)!. You have to get in the pool immediately b/c the flow is only very temporarily stopped!. Once in the pool, the water will continue to "hold everything in"!. Make sure you have a towel (literally) at the side of the pool ready for immediate use and cover! Quickly (but not too obviously) go back into the bathroom when done swimming and change into dry clothing and a new tampon/pad!. Other than that, there is no way unless you want the pool to look like a scene from Jaws!! hehe Good luck girlie!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, I do strongly suggest you use a tampon!. They are very comfortable if you insert them properly!.
But my friend swims without anything when she has it, but as soon as she gets out she has to go to the bathroom and put on a pad!.!.!.!.If you are going to do it this way, first go to the bathroom and wash yourself off down there, that way its clean when you go in the pool, then go swim, and enjoy yourself, and go straight to the bathroon when your all done!.!.!.!.

But wearing a tampon would make you feel much more confident while swimming, but deffinetly don't wear a pad in the pool!. Everyone will see it and it wont work !.

Well good luck !Www@Answer-Health@Com

hunny, don't be against tampons!!!
they are wonderful!.
i have been on my period for like 9 days striaght, and when i went to the beach, that was all i used!.
don't go!.
or use a tampon, just do it!. what are you so against them!?
you don't even feel them!.
don't be scared!.
i mean, how are you going to swim!?!?!? YOU CAN'T! unless you want red and pink water around you and stains on your bathing suit!.
just use one!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

uhhhh!. i've never heard of anything that could help you except a menstrual cup and that's inserted too so you might be against that!. Have you ever tried tampons!? They're made to be your friends!. and if you wear a pad in the pool it's just going to soak up the pool water and everyone's going to think you have a giant vagina!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your period stops in water but when you get out of the water you'll need to go change FAST!!! You can't wear a pad in the water because it would be absorbing the water and not the fluids from your period!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Then you don't have that many choices hun!.!.!.

But the flow kind of stops when you're in water I think!.!.!.because I take baths when im on my period so everything will be cleaned well and there's never any blood in the tub!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ok i have never used tampons and my friend told me she does this: wears a pair of tight underwear under her suit, with a pad it!. i dont really understand this, but its all i got!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well!.!.!.!.!. thats kinda gross you wont wear a tampon but oh well!. So if your gonna get in the pool anyways, wear shorts over your bottoms and as soon as you get out and know your not gonna get back in put a pad on!Www@Answer-Health@Com
