Why do I not have chest pain before my period?

Menstruation is a very normal physiological behavior of women. Under normal circumstances, it occurs every month. Some women will experience many adverse reactions before menstruation, such as body aches, abdominal distension, insomnia, or loss of appetite, etc. Some women experience chest pain before menstruation but no pain during menstruation. What is going on? The following is a detailed explanation of why women experience chest pain before menstruation but no pain during menstruation.

Women may experience breast fullness, hardness, and tenderness before their period. In severe cases, the breasts will swell and ache with the slightest vibration or collision. This is caused by increased estrogen levels in the body before menstruation, breast hyperplasia, and edema of breast tissue. The above changes may disappear after menstruation. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and women should not worry too much.

How to relieve menstrual pain

1. Abstinence from alcohol: Edema is easy to occur during menstruation, and alcohol will aggravate this problem. Don't drink alcohol. If you must drink, limit it to 1 to 2 glasses of wine.

2. Keep warm. Keeping your body warm will speed up blood circulation and relax muscles, especially those in the spasmodic and congested pelvic area. Drink plenty of hot herbal tea or hot lemon juice. You can also place a heating pad or hot water bottle on your abdomen for a few minutes at a time.

3. How can taking a mineral bath relieve menstrual stomach pain? Add 1 cup of sea salt and 1 cup of sodium bicarbonate to a warm water tank. Soaking for 20 minutes can help relax muscles and relieve menstrual cramps.

4. Exercise, especially on the eve of menstruation, walking or engaging in other moderate exercise will make you more comfortable during menstruation.

5. Practice yoga. Yoga also has a relaxing effect. Here are some examples. Kneel down with your knees bent, sitting on your heels. Rest your forehead on the ground and stretch your arms out at your sides. Hold this position until you feel uncomfortable.
