No it wouldn't fall out.
And you should change tampons every 3 hours at the maximum.
So if you swim for more than 3 hours you should take it out.
If you don't,it'll expand too much and will hurt alot when you try to take it out.

The advice you have been given previously is correct however, I noticed someone said that sharks smell blood and could give you a problem because you had your period.

This person advised that you may want to stay out of the ocean. I can tell you that this is one of the biggest myths out there about menstruation and the ocean. You'll be fine and like the other posters indicated you can leave your tampon in or leave it out while swimming in the ocean. Change it once you have stopped swimming.

I just felt someone should nip that myth in the bud. You won't be attacked by a Great White or any other shark for swimming during menstruation in the ocean.

Yes you can wear a tampon in the ocean, without it falling out. Since your period stops when your in water you would probably be better off not wearing one. But if you did, then no it wouldn't fall out.

Hope I helped :)

yeah you can but it might make it easier if you dont wear one at all because in the water your period stops. But if you do decide to wear one you should probobly change it when you get out because it will be all wet from the water.

yes you can get in the ocean with a tampon in and it will not come out. matter of fact you can go in any form of water and it won't come out. yes you probably should change it after you get it. but i heard that sharks smell blood in the water, so it might not be a good idea to go in there while your on your period.

and you can keep a tampon in for 8 hours, so depending on the flow is when you could change it
