A common question is, “Menstruating and swimming, is it possible?” Fortunately, the answer is simple: yes, you definitely can! If you are just starting to menstruate, it may feel uncomfortable to swim during your period. Still, there is no reason to avoid it. With proper preparations and the use of appropriate menstrual products, you won’t have to miss a thing. You can enter the water without worry as long as you are properly prepared.
In this blog, we explain how you can swim trouble-free during your period and which products can help you do so. Specifically, we look at the benefits of Beppy products, such as the Beppy Soft+Comfort tampon and the Beppy menstrual cup. These products are designed to give you optimal comfort and discretion while swimming.
Swimming during your period: the possibilities
Period and swimming, it’s just possible. Many women choose to use traditional tampons while swimming. While this is a common option, it also comes with disadvantages. For example, the string of the tampon can become visible, which can cause discomfort and uncertainty. In addition, traditional tampons cannot always completely prevent water from soaking into the tampon, which can increase the risk of infections such as Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) can increase.
Fortunately, there are alternatives that solve these problems. We offer two innovative solutions: sponge tampons and a menstrual cup. Both products are designed with comfort, safety and discretion in mind, so you can swim without worry while menstruating.
Beppy Soft+Comfort Tampon
The Beppy Soft+Comfort tampon is a sponge tampon with no string. This makes it a discreet and comfortable solution for during swimming and other activities. Because the tampon has no string, you don’t have to worry about anything being visible when wearing a bikini or swimsuit. The tampon is made of a soft sponge that adapts perfectly to the shape of your body, so you hardly feel it.
The Beppy tampon also offers high absorbency, which means you don’t have to worry about leaking while swimming. In addition, this tampon does not absorb water, making it more hygienic and safer to use. The risk of infections such as TSS is lower with the Beppy tampon than with traditional tampons.
Another great advantage is that the Beppy tampon contains no harmful chemicals or perfumes, which minimizes the risk of irritation.
The Beppy menstrual cup
If you prefer to use a menstrual cup, the Beppy menstrual cup is an excellent option. This cup is made of soft, medical silicone and adapts perfectly to the shape of your body. Like the Beppy tampon, the menstrual cup is completely invisible and you hardly feel it. This makes it ideal for swimming, as you don’t have to worry about leaks.
The menstrual cup can provide up to 8 hours of protection, allowing you to swim for longer periods of time without having to empty the cup in between. This is especially convenient if you spend a long day at the beach or pool. In addition, the cup is reusable, which makes it a sustainable choice. You can use the cup for years!
