Answers:
tampons do not make your period irregular at all!. Personally, I think pads are quite uncomfortable, and are inconvinient because, like you said, you cannot swim with them!. If you get your period at camp, tell your counselor (hopefully a woman) and she will be able to help you with either pads or tampons!. Your mother should do a little personal research on tampons as well- she is misguided about them causing irregular periods!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wow, it's too bad that your mom believes that tampons will make your period irregular (which they won't), because they are awesome for swimming!. The menstrual cup is a great option, but I imagine that if she's not going to let you use tampons, that one is out, too!.

I am enclosing a couple of informative links, maybe you can get an idea from them:

first of all , tampons dont affect your cycle
second - it should be up to you what you were!.
its your body, in my opionon i HATE pads!. and if
i couldnt wear tampons id die!. pads to me are very
un comfy, so talk to your mom about it if you feel
that you dont like pads!.

okay , for me and alot of otehr girls, my peiord stops when
i get into water, but im not srue!. so if you get it and you go
swimming it might not be so bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Do some research and have a doctor talk to your mom about tampons, because I believe your mom has some false information about them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
