Yep...no problem as long as you stay away from places that might have sharks near by. Sharks have keen olfactory senses, with some species able to detect as little as one part per million of blood in seawater. They are attracted to the chemicals found in the guts of many species, and as a result often linger near or in sewage outfalls. Some species, such as nurse sharks, have external barbels that greatly increase their ability to sense prey. The short duct between the anterior and posterior nasal openings are not fused as in bony fishes. Sharks generally rely on their superior sense of smell to find prey, but at closer range they also use the lateral lines running along their sides to sense movement in the water, and also employ special sensory pores on their heads (Ampullae of Lorenzini) to detect electrical fields created by prey and the ambient electric fields of the ocean. Because of their great sense of smell you should be very aware of where you are and where they might be.
Also use a tampon...don't use a pad. Your bottums will inflate and it will be the most embarassing thing you have ever expeirienced.

Yes you can, but you should use a tampon whenever you go in the ocean, oh and just dont swim in shark infested waters haha because they can pick up the scent of your blood. ]
totally: its not that big of a deal bc people pee and POOP in it sometimes??? yea its crazy so a little blood wont ever hurt. but use a tampon DEFFINANTLY!!! also, dont worry about your bathing suit getting ruined because the water from the ocean will wash it away before it can dry and harden... yea sorta gross but whatev!
dont wear a pad -- itll inflate!! and wear a tampon of course!!! ]
Yes, as long as you use a tampon, you should be fine. ]
You can swim in the ocean while you are on your period but you can not wear a pad you must wear a tampon. I hope that helps!:) ]
Personally, I wouldn't, unless it was my last day & had a really light flow, because then the water would stop it. However, if you have a heavy flow, I DEFINITELY wouldn't. You'll make your bathing suit stained & will contaminate the ocean with your germs. Icky. It's almost like peeing in it, lol. ]
not that small tho it has tobe alot of blood and plus all the ppl that are gunna there the sharks are less likely to come over to you nd I just started with this so if this is what mean by editing my message yea!!!1 lol but if this not what you mean sorry :-/ ]
you can if you use a tampon unless you dont feel comfortable. ]
