There is absolutely nothing that a woman can't do while she is menstruating, and that includes swimming in a pool.

During menstruation in order to go swimming you need to use an internal menstrual product such as tampons, sponges, softcups, or menstrual cups in order to prevent your blood getting in the pool - although menstrual flow isn't dirty, no one wants to swim through your menstrual blood or uterine tissue!

Tampons aren't recommended to younger women due to higher risks of TSS, especially for the first few cycles when you wouldn'tknow your flow pattern to know what absorbency to use - also tampons can't be worn with light flow. Menstrual cups are the best option as they are safe to use at any time without risk of TSS, including with light flow, also unlike tampons cups don't absorb water, have anything showing outside the body, and don't leak like other options either. Opt for a small menstrual cup like Ladycup or MeLuna.
