The Ruling on a Menstruating Woman Entering a Swimming Pool

Question
Is it permissible for a woman to swim in a pool during her menstruation, even if she uses a cotton ball to stop the flow of blood?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It becomes impure if blood falls into it if the surface area of the pool is less than five meters by one meter, and if it exceeds this area, it does not become impure, and God knows best.
