can I still go?
okay, so I started my period a couple of days ago, and my bestfriend asked me if I wanted to go swimming with her tomorrow I said yes, because i'm not that heavy. I don't wear tampons only pads so would it be ok if I wear a dark bathing suit and a panty liner?

The problem is, with wearing pads swimming, the pads don't reach up and grab the blood when it comes out. When swimming in a pool of water, the blood will seep right out into the water. If you're comfortable with trying a tampon, use a light tampon, and take it out when you're done swimming. Tampons plug the hole so it doesn't leak out, which is the only effective way to swim while on your period. I'm sorry there isn't a way around that, and good luck to you

no. it's totally unhygienic. how would you feel if your friend was the one with the period instead?
Be considerate towards other people, and the pool cleaner. Your swimming can wait another day.

i dont think that sounds like a good idea. your period might not be heavy now but may be really heavy tomoro! you never know. either use a tampon or dont go swimming.. you don't want to get out of the pool and have blood running down your leg

i wouldnt take the person below me adivce. because periods are unpredicatble sometime i get a realy heavy flow. othertimes im normal flow.
personally i think you should not go or face up to tampons.
secondly the moment you step into water. your pad/paryliner is gonna go all mushy and soak up the water and tear itself up. so not a good idea! unles you decide to sit on the side of the pool. with you butt out of the water?

Dont wear the panty liner in the water but wear a dark dark bathing suit and right after you get out of the water run to the bathroom with a pantyliner (hidden in you arms or waterever and replace the pantyliner then before you go back in go back to the bathroom take it out and run as fast as you can into the water. That's my best suggestion if you dont want to wear tampons hope it works!!
