Can I swim with a tampon during my period?

Internal tampons are also called sanitary tampons. This is a very rare female menstrual product in the domestic market. Why is it called internal? This is because when people use tampons, they will insert the tampons into the inside of the vagina, so it is called an internal tampon. The tampon will block the exit of the vagina, so it can help women better survive the menstrual period and prevent the entry of external bacteria. Some people say that the vagina is already blocked, can you swim with an internal tampon during menstruation? Why is this?

For the vast majority of Chinese women, the word "tampon" may be both familiar and unfamiliar. It is familiar because they have heard of it a long time ago, and it is unfamiliar because they have never used it. In fact, tampons have been widely used by European and American women because of their convenience. Sanitary napkins are not the only option for women during their menstrual period. What's more, it's easy to exercise and swim while using tampons. According to experts, it is possible to swim while using a tampon.

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.

Can I swim while wearing a tampon during my period? After reading the introduction above, I believe everyone has already understood that you can go swimming freely while using tampons during menstruation, but we also need to understand that women during menstruation should not come into contact with cold things. Therefore, women should not go swimming in the morning or evening during menstruation. They should choose a swimming pool with a more suitable water temperature, and it is better to control the time within one hour.
