Tampons can absorb water when you go swimming, the vaginal walls will typically close on themselves so surround the tampon to prevent it absorbing water, but that's not always the case - as long as you can't feel the tampon as you sit or move about it is inserted far enough.
You may want to consider using menstrual cups, these are internal like tampons but aren't absorbent so don't absorb water and they have light suction so they prevent any leaking.

yes you can go swimming when you have your period. If you want to do this then its best to use a tampon. Just find what type of tampon suits you and you should be fine.

Swimming during your period is fine as long as you wear a tampon which should be changed before and after you go swimming

A tampon obviously

What happens when you swim in the pool that has chlorine and you have a period?
Nothing... You should just wear a Tampon when you go swimming.
If you wear a tampon when you go swimming when you come out of the water will it still absorb the blood?
Answer Yes; there is nothing inherently wrong with wearing a tampon while you're swimming. It's possible (but unlikely) that if you are doing highly active things in the swimming pool and your bathing suit does not fit properly, you may have some water seep into your vaginal cavity and it will be absorbed by the tampon. The chances that the amount of water that the tampon absorbs would be enough to keep it from absorbing blood are incredibly small and you should not have to worry about it. I would check/change your tampon at least two hours after getting out of the pool just to be on the safe side; however, if you are in a social situation (such as a pool party) then put in a fresh one just before the party and you shouldn't have to worry about it too much. Bringing a spare is always a good idea, but your tampon will still work after getting in and out of the pool. Hope that answers your question! Answer On tampon packets and instructions, it generally says to put a new one in before swimming and put a new one in after swimming

You can, but for the safety of others in the pool {And to avoid embarrassment}, you should use a tampon while in the water.

Going swimming won't cause the tampon to get lost in your body. The vagina is a dead end, and the tampon has nowhere to go.
