oh god another period question
 .is it ok to use a tampon when youre not on your period? i know that sounds stupid, but let me explain... i understand the whole irregular thing and all, but see ive had my period for about 2 years now... and it was fine until about 4 months ago. like each month it would be a couple days late or whatever. but then last month it was a whole week late  it kinda freaked me out but i got over it. now this month i was suppose start friday... well here it is monday and i havent (thats what... 3 days?) im not going "omg why not" or anything, i have a different problem with it. see my family, we have a boat that we like to go out in it all the time and i also like to swim. well im afraid to go swim because it could start anytime you know. so i was thinking, well i could wear a tampon when i swim just incase... but i thought i read somewhere that its bad to.. but i dont know, so is it? btw i wear one all the time when im on it so theres no problem in me knowing how or anything. what should i do  ?

You can but it's not the best. If your afraid that your not sure when your going to get your period, wear a small pad.
The funny thing that happened to me was that my friends and I went to a camp on Catalina Island- none of us brought pads or tampons because we assumed we were not going to get our periods. Well. the three of us got our periods! weird timing eh? We had to get pads from the office lol. Swimming with a small pad is perfectly fine as long as you aren't wearing some g-string bathing suit. If you feel unsure about it, wear your bathing suit with some board shorts. A lot of girls do this, especially if they're not sure when they'll get their period. If you use a tampon while not on your period, wear the smallest one and leave it in for at least several hours. Do not put it in then immediately try to take it out- that happened to another friend of mine and she ended up going on an embarrassing trip to the doctors to have it taken out. A tampon soaks up any moisture so remember that! I strongly recommend wearing a small pad if your not on your period and you want to play it safe while swimming! |
