Your swim coach is completely WRONG. Despite what everyone else is saying your period will NOT stop in the water. It keeps going. The only difference is is that the water will wash it away and embarass you - it will also stain a little spot in your swimsuit. You can either wear a tampon or a menstrual cup and go swimming or stay out of the pool.. There are no other options.. Seriously, would YOU want to swim with another girl who has her period and isn't using any protection? Exactly. It's unsanitary. Best of luck!

Hi, i play water polo so i know these things. Some people bleed in the water and some dont so get a note from your parent. Wearing a tampon would be the best idea for oyu probabyl unless you fel uncomfortable about it. If you have a guys teracher he doesnt understand and if you have a girl teacher shes retarded because you will bleed right when u get out. If you REALLY dont want ot use a tampon tell you mom and she can talk to hte teacher for you im sure he/she will understand :) good luck

No you don't just as long as soon as you get out of the water you get dressed and put a pad on after. No it will not leak out!! Don't worry about it you will be fine!!
