Well, most girls wait awhile until they start using tampons, so you might want to use just pads during the day for awhile, and then use tampons for swimming. But, if you're embarassed, like that other girl said, whenever your moms shopping tell her you'll be right back and just go grab a box and stick them in the cart. I don't think it's too early to start, but [ I don't know if you're talking about swimming lessons for gym, or for swim team or what ] whenever I would have swimming lessons for gym, I'd jsut write a note to the teacher telling her I'm on it and I couldn't swim for a week, and she didn't mark me off. But if for swim team or just swimming or something, then yeah, use a tampon. I hope I helped. <3

Usually Girls wait atleast 6months before they start using tampons. If absolutely need to use a tampon then just ask your mom. Just tell her that you would like to use them to go swimming. Or you can do what i did and while you and your mom are in the store walk away from her and grab a box of tampons and stick them in the cart and when she goes to pay tell her you need them for swimming.

hope this helps

hmm..it depends. not really, like if you're ready for a tampon because you need it for swimming, then use it. you should start with pads like during the day & what not, but for swimming, use a tampon.

-hope that helped!&hearts;
