Fear #1: Not being able to swim and have fun on the period
Fear #2: Ruining a perfectly good bathing suit
Fear #3: Leaking in front of everyone
Fear #1:
You can still have fun on your period thanks to tampons and menstrual cups. Most commonly, this is a question and fear for girls that use pads a lot. Pads will swell up and not absorb anything in water, so a tampon or menstrual cup is a good choice because you can splash around and swim with them.
Fear #2:
Using a tampon, you have a slight chance of leaks (but this is common with every product), but you won't ruin a bathing suit. All you have to do is change the tampon often and immediately as soon as you get out of the water. For menstrual cups, correct positioning and insertion will eliminate any chances for leaking.
Fear #3:
Again, to prevent leaking with tampons:
. Change often
. Immediately after exiting the water (or as soon as possible)
. Using the correct absorbency
To prevent leaking with menstrual cups:
. Correct insertion
. Correct postitioning
Now go and have some fun in the sun and swimming with the dolphins!
