LOL anyways please reply I might go with out and bleed EVERYWHERE like obliviously Im a virgin so Ahhh I don't know what to do like I dont want to break the whatever its called!
Well the WATER DOES STOP YOUR FLOW. What you have to worry about is when you get out of the water. If you have a regular flow or higher. WEAR A TAMPON. If you have a very light flow, like at the end of your period. There is NO NEED FOR A TAMPON as long as you check, and you get out of the pool that blood is nowhere on you.
Hmmm I have the same problem and everyone is saying use a tampon blah blah but ill be straight up, TAMPONS DONT FIT.. there. haha. 4th of july is coming up and I always swim when the fire works ar going off and this year I cant because of my stupid period. So im just gonna stay off my boat and hope for the best :(
you can go swimming when your on your peroid if your flow is light-medium. The water will stop most of your flow but I woudlnt recomend swimming for a long time like that because you may bleed a little bit and that would create a very akward situation!
hope this helps! :D
I have tried going swimming without a tampon before, I wore shorts over my bikini bottom and kept the bottom of me wet, but it was really hard when I got out of the water because the flow will start back up once you are out of the water. You could try doing that! :)
Using a pad whilst swimming will not work
It will soak up the water and will be very noticeable through your swim suit
So if you want to swim and you are on your period, a tampon is the ONLY option.
Except not to go swimming of course =]
From what I understand, people have swam with only pads on and supposedly the water stops the flow...
but it seems like it would be quite unsanitary, and I wouldn't recommend that. I'd just either sit out of the pool, or use a tampon.
You could use a diva cup which goes up like a tampon but it just collects the flow and not absorb it. You can wear it for 12 hours and it is reusable. I don't use one but you can swim with one. And there is no chance of TSS.
I heard your period stops when you get in the water...but idunno maybe thats just one of those retarded mexican myths that grandmas say
Okay so about 2 months ago I sucked it up tampons ... no big deal haha
