To swim on your period you need to use one of the following:
- Tampons
- Soft tampons
- Menstrual sponges
- Menstrual cups
- Diaphragms
- Softcups
Blood does NOT stop flowing in the water, this is a myth - your uterus does not have water-seeking technology so it will not know you'e in the water to stop bleeding - if your flow is light what little blood that leaves your body may be diluted in the water so go unnoticed, but heavier bleeding and uterine tissue will be noticed. You also cannot wear pads in the water because the blood won't flow down into the pad, even if it did the pad would be saturated with water so be unable to absorb the blood, disposable pads will also potentially fall apart or come unstuck.

∙ 13y agoNo. The blood stops flowing with you get in the water. But when you have your bathing suit on make sure you have a pad on because right when you get out of the water it starts flowing again. So hurry and change. But don't stay in the water to long or your pad will get soggy and it will start getting through. When your vagina gets exposed to air blood flows so make sure your in the water the whole time. I did this because i was too afraid to put a tampon in and when i was in the pool nothing came out i was perfectly fine.
