Secondly, once you hit the water, it will begin to break apart, and cotton will be all in the pool, and it won't protect you after that, ya know?? And the 'fluid' will more than like leak down your legs. Now, I'm not shore about YOU.. but that doesn't seem like fun to MEEEE. Honestly, the only options I see for you is using a tampon, or not swimming. And wearing a tampon isn't awful, Hun. MOST females PERFER them, and insertion isn't dreadful. It's prettie simple actually. I've looked online for you, and I came up with a few sites that explain HOW TO use a tampon. I think you should check these out:
