It has already been suggested that you use a tampon. If you have not used one before, start practicing now so that you will be comfortable by the time of your trip.

I wish there was a way to make your period shorter, along with every other girl in the universe. Since I have never met a girl who enjoyed having their period.
May I suggest TAMPONS, don't worry about TSS because as long as you do not fall asleep with it in and leave it in for like 12 hours you'll be fine.
Also just watch and make sure the string stays in the bottom of your bathing suit.
Tampons are better, they are less messy and you feel cleaner even though you have your period.

Sorry, you can't reduce the length of time you have your period. Just use a tampon or don't go swimming.

I don't know how to magically make a period shorter, but I do know for future reference that taking birth control shortens them and also makes them lighter. But I always went swimming when I was on my period and no one ever even knew; I just wore a tampon. If you never wore one before I suggest Tampax Pearl Light it comes in a yellow box.

Well i recommend tampons even though im to scared to wear them. Tampons r really good for swimming. But i was just like u i was in orlando and was traveling to miami and i will got to the beach. so i had it and they couldnt cancel it so my aunt told me is it heavy i told her not really so she just said go in the water and i really did. nothing came out becuz water clogs it but if u want to be on the safe side either wear a tampon or dont go. If ur period is not heavy than go in the water if its heavy good luck and try... GOOD LUCK!!!!!

The only thing you can do is use tampons. And change them when you are supposed to. Dont want to get Toxic Shock from leaving a tampon in too long.

you can't change anything now but where a tampon. For the next time, the doctors don't really advise this, but you can do it sometimes. The last week of your pill pack(if they change colors) skip and start th enew pack instead. The last week is usually the inactive week of the pills so if you start the new active pills it will deter you from starting.

try tampons!! they are really great after you learn how to use them!! the first time might be kinda scary or will take a while to get used 2 inserting them!! but if u get the right absorbency and all everything should be great!! try tampax pearl juniors u can get a whole box of them at CVS or walmart!! they are great for beginners and they have instructions inside!! trust me they are better than pads!

Tampax have some very good products why don't you check them out. It also helps if you change the tampon frequently well you are at the park.
