No it won't stop, it just creates an equilibrium where nothing can go in and nothing can come out. The minute you get back out of the pool it'll begin again.

Generally no. The flow can still continue. With some women who have light flow, it basically stops for the duration of the swim, due to the cold water. (This seems to happen to me - as a young teenager I went swimming while on my period a few times and nothing came out at all. But I have light flow, and I think it was the last couple of days.
But it's best to just use tampons. Sanitary and you don't want to leak and be embarrassed or cause problems for the pool.

Just stay out of the pool. Do everyone, including yoursself, a favor by not experimenting with this myth.

im afraid thats a misconception. You should always wear a tampon when swimming anyway as if your really heavy you WILL leak in the pool (so save yourself the embarrassment). Also you will be prone to catching an infection from the bacteria in the water itself even tho there is chlorine in it to help erradicate them it doesnt kill them.

No it wont stop but you may not notice your flow coming out, so be sure to wear tampons as if you dont this can be reall unhygenic. Hope i helped:)
