I'm not sure if any of the women answering your question has ever had their period, and if they have, then they have never taken a bath. I'm telling you the truth yes your period will stop while taking a bath the water will cause the bleeding to stop while in the tub, but shortly after you get out it will start back up again.

i dont really know how it all works. when i get in the shower or the bath im not usually bleeding although i have been heavy enuf before that i did, i think it usually kindof does but i would not suggest swimming w.o a tampon. just in case. besides what if you get out of the pool n jus want to hang out on the side for a bit you dont wnt to make a mad dash for the bathroom!

No, that is not true at all. My doctor told me that if I wanted to go swimming while i had my period to wear a tampon so nothing bad happened. Never go swimming without protection.

Your period doesn't stop. It may seem that way b/c the water washes away all the blood but it doesn't make it stop.

I have found, along with many of my friends, that your while your period doesn't stop completley, it lightens up quite a bit. I still use a tampon, but it is rarely a sheavy as normal, and many of my friends agree with this.

No, I wish! But it does seem to slow down a bit...I would not recommend getting into a pool without a tampon! It's just gross and unsanitary.

I have heard this before from Muslim swimmers who did not use tampons. But, as a nurse, I would not count on it for too long.

no, it doesn't stop. cold water will reduce the flow, & hot water will increase it though. temporarily

someone (who ever it was) only told you that in hopes you'd believe it and embarrass yourself one day. nice "friend". better re-evaluate.
