I hate tampons, they hurt, pretty they're not supposed to though :/
But if I wear one I always take them out for the shower, and I usually change it when I pee so take it out then too. I thought you don't usually bleed much in water anyway for some reason? Obvs in the shower you're not completely 'in' water, but I mean if you had a bath you wouldn't bleed to much? Or am I wrong? Don't have a bath so have no idea! xx

and bath, if i leak it's only going down
the plug hole anyway

i prefer not to wear anything if i can
help it, towels and tampons are foul

I am naughty and often take 2 or 3 pill packs together to avoid having a period!

I always take it out. If I bled a bit it'll only be washed away so don't see why it matters.

When I used them, always left it in. Washing 'in there' disrupts the good bacteria and can lead to yeast infections and whatnot.

Although I always changed it right after the shower. I always had a heavy flow and I wouldn't feel clean if I had menstrual fluid dripping down my leg while showering and trying to dry off.

I usually take them out. Mostly because I shower in the morning when I get it and it's time for a change anyway by that time.
