Yes, you can totally go swimming when you have your period! Nothing is going to stop you. Your period doesn't mean you have to like, just sit there while everyone else has fun.

It's super common to worry that your period might be obvious in the water, but it's really not a big deal. When you're in the water, the pressure actually helps slow things down a bit, so you don't usually bleed much, or even at all, while you're swimming.

Make sure you use a tampon or a menstrual cup before you get in the water. Both of those collect your period inside your body, so no one can see anything, and it keeps the water from getting in too. If you only use pads, you might want to try tampons or a cup, or even period swimwear which is pretty cool! Just make sure whatever you use, you change it right after you get out of the water. Staying in a wet swimsuit for too long can sometimes like, mess with your balance down there, and no one wants that.
