I feel like there is already so much information about the cup and nothing being said about this. This could save us a lot of embarrassing moments!

To all my swimmer, beach and island sisters:

Swimming with a cup or staying in the water for a long time is not advised. I ran into this problem today, I stayed in the water for an hour and when I came out my cup was full with a mix of water and my period. Every movement felt something like this:

I know some people would say it could have been because with wasn't properly inserted, but I have been using the cup for some while and never had any issues. Even today, before going into the water...

So ladies, please share this information and spare a sister the embarrassment!
