Most likely you will notice that your period will soon start whilst you are relaxing and you will be able to use a pad or a tampon.
If you want to go swimming whilst you are having a period then I suggest using a tampon, making sure you use the correct absorbency for your flow.
Enjoy your holiday and don't worry about your period too much. Just be prepared for it with tampons and pads. All the best. [ Elcee's advice column | Ask Elcee A Question ]
