Swimming on Period?!? any tips?!


Question: Swimming on Period?!? any tips?
I know u can use a tampon for swimming, and i am planning on that. I am just worried I will leak or the tampon will fall out. This is really my first time swimming with my period and a tampon, so give me some tips please!!

Answers:

You will be fine, don't worry! Just make sure to put it in properly.

Enjoy your swim!



hello there!
the tampon definitely works, as long as you dont take one that is super lose.
however, and most people dont seem to know/believe this, you dont get your period while swimming. The pressure of the water is so that the blood flow is stopped. (test it in the bathtub if you dont believe me!) so if you are only jumping in, swimming and going back out, without hanging around outside of te water for longer than ten minutes, you can go swimming without a tampon.

If you do not use tampons it is not a good idea to swim during your period, during this time, you are prone to bacteria or infections.

If the tampon is in properly, it can't fall out. If it leaks, it's because you've left it in too long.



I've always had that concern, but it never does. Use the instructions inside the tampon box, it helps.



Use a tampon properly and you'll be fine! Good luck!! :) x
