    Hon, you either have to challenge yourself to use a tampon (look up ilikeweylie's video on this on youtube) or skip the party. Don't chance not wearing anything, it could still stain your suit, and if you wore a pad in the water, it would just absorb water and be noticeable. Good luck.

    Do not go into the water while wearing a pad, it will absorb the water and therefore not be able to absorb the menstrual blood, leading to shark bait.

    I am assuming that you are a virgin, hymen intact, which is why you say tampons are not an option. If you want to go into the pool while on your period, you have to wear a tampon. Choose wisely, don't pick one because it's cheap. The U brand by kotex works very well. If you decide to wear a pad, you will embarrass yourself. From the looks of it, you think about appearance more than logic. So take my advice into consideration.

    It's either you swim with a tampon, change it every hour. Or don't go near the pool. They call periods shark week for a reason.

    honestly it's tampons or no swimming. do NOT go swimming without a tampon, the water does NOT stop blood from leaking. you're going to end up with blood stains or blood in the water. you cant swim with a pad because besides the fact that everyone will see it through your swimsuit, it will absorb the water and get worse.

    there's really no option to swim if theres no tampon option. just put the tampon in your purse/bag. a guy isn't going to find it unless he looks through your bag.

    surely, i've got long previous swimming on my era previously and not something undesirable surpassed off. It relies upon on what colour your bathing extra wholesome is...it ought to get stained somewhat yet you could likely get rid of it, and no the blood did not circulate everywhere yet mine are continuously fairly gentle. something approximately being interior the water has a tendency to end it for somewhat. yet of course be careful while status up and so on. does not % it working down your leg. this is fairly helpful to convey a conceal up or gown or something for once you get out of the pool. As for hiding your pad, you should maintain it on your handbag or basically stash it someplace the place it is not going that absolutely everyone will locate it? Or while you're fairly that demanding use tissue quickly and flush it once you're performed.

    When you're in the water, blood does not leak. So STAY in for as long as reasonably possible, and then quickly go to the bathroom with a pad afterwards. :)
