Menstrual Health
1. Use Internal Products Tampons are designed to absorb menstrual blood internally, so pick the right absorbency level for your flow, and make sure you change it before and after swimming.
2. Insertion Technique If you’re using a tampon, ensure it’s fully inserted by pushing it far enough inside to sit comfortably and create a seal.
3. Choose the Right Absorbency Pick a cup that is the appropriate size, & choose a tampon with an appropriate absorbency level according to your flow.
4. Wear a Backup It’s normal to be worried about leaks, so you can wear a thin pantyliner, or any period-specific underwear as backup.
5. Empty and Change Regularly Change your tampons and empty your menstrual cups immediately before & after swimming.
