Will swimming with your period affect health?

Q: My mom told me that when you swim with your period, you risk the chance of being unable to get pregnant easily and it can affect your body. She asked a doctor, and the doctor said that swimming with your period is fine as long as you wear a tampon. But, my mom heard from a Chinese doctor that it COULD affect you. I swim 5 times a week, and my coach does not appreciate the fact that I skip almost a week’s worth of practices every single month. So, skipping practice is no longer an option. Who was correct?

Can swimming affect when you get your period?

Q: I’ve had my period for about ten years now.My period ended on August 9, but as of the past 2 days, I’ve been experiencing tenderness in both of my boobies. I’m not sexually active, so I’m positive I’m not pregnant. To add to it, I’m 22 so my period’s has plenty of time to regularize itself over the past however many years its been part of my life. I’ve done a lot of swimming (both at the beach and in a pool) over the span of about 5 days last week. Could all that swimming have led to another period so soon? I suppose I should put a disclaimer up at this point to excuse me for asking a possibly silly question at my age. I’ve had mini-cramps (nothing major) but no spotting or full blown period as of yet.
