me and my friends are going swimming soon and i got my period. i really don't know what i should do.

use a tampon.

i never used one so i don't think i know how to use it

get the box, it has instructions inside... you can do it

how old are you? if you have no experience with a tampon.. you must be pretty new with this.. lol

i dont wear a tampon when i swim and its fine..

you should wear a tampon

just wear a tampon, theres instructions in the box

Err.
When are you going swimming, and how heavy do you think it'll be by then?

im 13 i only use the other thing i forgot what it is lol


When are you going swimming, and how heavy do you think it'll be by then?

im going swimming on the fourth day of my period i don't know my friend said that she went swimming when she had it but im scared that "something" might happen.

ask your mom or just don't swim..

don't go swimming? i think i'll ask my mom

its like a trip thing when the whole school goes i really don't want to miss it

DE ONLY THiNG iS TAMPON OR DONT SWiM.

tampons

if its light then you can go swimming cuz the water blocks the flow. i did it yesterday at the gym, it works. but it starts again as soon as you get out of the water.

yeah, if it's light, you might be able to. or learn to use a tampon. i'm gonna have to because next year for gym, i'm taking a swimming class.

im new with this thing so what do you mean if its light

tampons are you best friend when you have your period and you want to go swimming

If it's not flooding... and the blood is just splotchy... then its light. And def. use a tampon or else your blood will be in the pool along with the other water. Lol.

just use a tampon. so comfortable you can't even feel them :]

use a tampon >>i dont like tampons though..

4th day? personally I wouldnt because mines still somewhat heavy on the 4th day..but it all depends on how long your period lasts. If it only lasts 4-5 days..go for it. If it lasts more than 6 days Id say stay away from the water or use a tampon.

same here.. i used it once.. and it was when i was swimming.. it helped.. but i just didnt like it.. my advice is.. try the tampons and see how ya like it..

mm...tampons usually work...lol...but if you dont use those then dont go swimming

tampon
might be hard n the first try
but i dont know
becuZz i only use pads
so yeh

And why wouldn't the chemicals go up there when you're not on your period?

Try a tampon.

hrm, you could wear a pad because i heard your period stops in the water unless you pee in there.

wow..who would pee in the water????

nevermind. my mom told me this story of when she wa slike 20 and my dad pushed her into a pee infested public pool and she accidently gulped down a mouthful of water.

i went to this one public pool where if you pee the water around you turns green. so everybody knows you peed

yeh use a tampon but be sure you know how to insert it ...like try before hand cos the first time you do it itll hurt and if you do it wrong youll feel kinda sick...thats what happ to me so yeh...u gotta learn how to insert it properly .....

Hmm...I just started using tampons. I got used to them on the first day. Now I use pads OR tampons. I like pads better xD. But uhh...yeah...if ur gonna go swimming...use a tampon...

I've been using tampons every since I got my first period because it was right before my birthday and the day before my birthday party at the pool! I didn't like them at first but I prefer them over pads now. To me, pads feel like diapers and tampons are so much more comfortable but be careful that you insert the tampon correctly and don't leave it in for too long. You can get a serious infection if you do. Goodluck =]

dayum...

you relli shud use one..

be considerate please :]

Ohhh. Hey, you learn something knew every day.

i highly recommend u to put on tampon but i never put on those yet and i dont think i will ever do that hehe...

when ur in the water u don't bleed

yeah just get a tampon box and read the directions carefully
