Sometimes swimming makes the blood less apparent, but not always. Also, sometimes, when you get out of the water, your legs could be reddish from the bloody water that could be by your legs.

Okay blood will not stop in the water, but you won't realize it in the pool so do not worry about it. You can swim in a pool with your period, it will not cause any problems.

ok, first yes, your period does stop as soon as you go into the water BUT it immediatly starts to flow again when you get out.
you can go to www.tampax.com and they can probably give you step by step insrtuctions that you can bring with you into the bathroom on how to put them in. hope i helped. have fun in fl, i live there. lolz

Bleeding does NOT stop when you are in water. It is just so diluted, you won't notice it. I would say not to worry too much in a pool, unless your period is heavy enough to be noticed. It isn't really bad. But I don't recommend going in the ocean without a tampon. I grew up in Hawaii and have been told by professional divers that you don't want to be bleeding in the ocean 'cause if there are sharks around, well, they will be around you. I was 13 when I was told that, and had just started my period while on a boat. I sooo wanted to go swimming. Luckily, I didn't, because a hammerhead was spotted that day by a few people on the boat.

Anyway, as I said in your other post about this concern, talk to your mom (or other older female). They can help you get tampons right.

Hey.

Blood does stop when you go in water. When you go out it takes like 10 minutes for your blood to start flowing again. It's not very hygenic for the other people in the pools, but whatever. Every girls done it. :]
