Don't be nervous! Everyone has to start somewhere. I have been swimming for about 6 years and I know what it's like. Swimming isn't the easiest sport but it is alot of fun and hardwork! Well sometime or other you are going to have to learn how to use a tampon. Once you learn how to use them, you'll be fine. And don't be discouaraged if you can't get it in for the first couple of times. It takes practice. And if you need to, you can tell your swim coach about it too, they should understand if you are going through your period. Yes, I have told my coach before and he was a guy! But tell them when other people aren't around to hear. Have fun and good luck with swimming!

I have been swimming for a very long time, and one of the most important things to know is how to insert a tampon, since you can't go swimming with a pad. I recommend Playtex Sport, they hold better, are more comfortable and really are easy to insert once you get the hang of it.
You have to be prepared at practices, ready to do lots of drills, and of course, swim, swim, swim. It can be tiring, but it's also a lot of fun.

Dear swim,
Knowing how to put in a tampon is important for swimming because you cant swim in a pad. I suggest getting Playtex sports, they give directions in the box and its actually pretty helpful.
