period in water?


Question Posted Friday June 29 2007, 5:02 pm

I'm soo confused!!!

People say that when you're in the water, your period stops. But then why do you need a tampon if you're going swimming? What's the point in wearing a tampon in the water, even if you're period stops?

people that say that are morons. your period doesn't stop in the water; it just doesn't show up when you leak all over your friends in their pool because the water dilutes it. that's the reason why when people are drinking alcohol and then plan to drive later drink water at the same time. it dilutes the alcohol as it enters the bloodstream and makes them more alert to their environment. it also lowers the blood alcohol content if they get stopped by the cops.

use a tampon.

Ack! I heard this too but the true is, your period doesn't stop when you are in the water it just looks like it stops because the blood blends in with the water. You definitely need to put on a tampon if you are planning to go swimming on your period.

This Myth is Officially FALSE.

Hoping I helped,

Not true at all. Your period doesn't stop if you're in water. You're still bleeding even in water that's why you wear the tampon. Even when you take a shower you're still bleeding. Just because you're in water, the bleeding doesn't stop.



Hope this helps. :)

Many people say that because it happens in the shower, but that's not true. In the shower, it just stops the blood a little bit for the small period of time you're in the shower. But in the swimming pool, you'll be in there longer. If your period begins to end or stop, you can go swimming because you wouldn't be able to see the blood-- since theres not that much, but you always have to wear tampons on the days before for insurance, better safe than sorry (:

That's just it people "say" your period stops in water, but the truth is that it doesn't. that's just a myth. it will only stop it a little bit, so you could go swimming without a tampon on your last period days when you have very little blood coming out. Other than that you will get blood in the water, so its not a good idea. Anyone who tells you otherwise has given into the myth and obviously not tried it themselves. Don't try it believe me you will be incredibly embarrissed.

Hope that helped :)
