Can you really swim while wearing a tampon?

Many friends go swimming in the summer, which can help us reduce the heat. However, female friends cannot go swimming during special menstrual periods. This makes many friends very distressed, because swimming in the water is something many people like to do. It can not only help us exercise, but also relieve the heat. Now there is a kind of tampon on the market, so can you swim while using a tampon?

Tampons are the best choice for swimming. Tampons are inserted into the body so that menstrual blood will not leak out even when swimming. It is easy to exercise and swim while using tampons.

Steps to put on a tampon before swimming:

1. Wash your hands thoroughly. When using a tampon while swimming, don't skip washing your hands just because it's troublesome in a public bath.

2. Open the package and gently push the tampon into the vagina. Virgin girls should use tampons with caution because pushing the tampon into the vagina is tighter than in girls. However, if you have already used it, don't have too much mental burden, after all, the vagina is very elastic. If you find it difficult to insert the tampon, you can wait until the menstrual blood flows out before inserting it. There is no discomfort when a tampon is in place, but if you feel severe discomfort, it is best to remove it.

3. The replacement time of tampons should not exceed 6 hours. Staying in the vagina for a long time will cause bacteria to grow in the enclosed space inside the vagina and even cause infection.

Precautions for swimming with tampons:

1. If you happen to be swimming during your first menstruation and the amount of blood is heavy, it is recommended that you do not go swimming.

2. It is recommended that you change the tampon immediately after getting ashore. After all, the tampon has been in contact with water. Replace it in time to avoid unnecessary infection. Swimming time should not exceed one hour.

3. It is recommended that you replace your tampon with a new one before going into the water.

The above is an introduction about whether you can swim while using tampons. Many female friends are still unfamiliar with tampons. In fact, this is a very popular female hygiene product abroad, and it has brought great convenience to our lives. You can also exercise or even swim during your period. I hope this can help everyone.
