Is it safe to go swimming the second day of your period?


Question:
my friend asked me to go swimming tomorrow but I just started my period today. Can I swim and more importantly IS IT SAFE?

Answers:
It's fine! i do it all the time, you just need to wear a tampon. If you don't do that yet and don't want to then don't get in the water but tampons hold fine just about every 2 hours or so check but you don't have to check before 2 hours.

Other Answers:
you should be fine as long as you wear a tampon. i don't think it's possible to get eaten by a shark b/c you're on your period anyway.

Yes. Just use a tampon. Yes of course it is! You will need to use a tampon, but yes you can do anything on your period you can do off of it!


Yes, it is perfectly safe on any day. Wear a tampon; pads will dissolve in the water and show. You can do anything you'd normally do during your period.


sure its safe.just make sure you wear a tampon so you dont bleed in the water. water accually helps me with my cramps..Good Luck!!

just wear a tampon.thats what theyre 4. That depends on your body. If I got wet during my period I got terrible cramps.


It depends where your swimming, in a pool or lake, of course it's fine. In the ocean, sharks can sense one drop of blood from miles away but it doesn't happen too often.


use a tampon.but if you use pads-like me-i wouldn't..i've missed out on plenty of swim invite because of that..not second day maybe the fourth.SORRY.you a tampon and you'll be fine

Yes, it's safe. Just use a tampon rather than a pad. Oh, and if it's in the ocean, make sure it's not an area where there are a lot of sharks. Seriously. Of course it is safe. Thank God for Tampons!!


yes use a tampon n make sure its one that will absorb alot n u will be fine


I wouldnt suggest swimming without using a tampon, imagine if you bleed everywhere. Ask your friend if she has a tampon or get your parent to buy you some.Follow the instructions on pack. You can go swimming when ever you like during your period.
