if your swimming, dont worry. Cold water stops your period from flowing out. if you wear a tampon it does help. you just have to worry about getting out of the pool. thats when your period starts flowing again.

I don't know how long you have been having your period but the first year is sometimes irregular for a girl. I would see a doctor though as yours sound really off. They can put you on birth control to regulate them even if you aren't sexually active. They put me on them at 11 for the same reason. It took about a year but they straightened out and stayed that way for 3 years.
If you're worried about starting at the pool just use one and be sure to remember to take it out when you get out of the pool. There are other signs to watch for as well as the cramping and bloating--I didn't do either of those either-- sometimes your nose or chin will break out just before or your appetite will change.

well make sure you keep track of your days and if you haven't had your period in a while and are really worried about it you could put in a tampon while you swim? but if your periods are that irregular you should go to your doctor
