Why is my period not coming yet?

During menstruation, some girls will experience breast swelling, which is a normal phenomenon because changes in hormones in the body lead to breast swelling. However, if it is too painful and menstruation is delayed, then pathological factors should be considered. You should go to the hospital for hormone tests in time and receive targeted treatments, and pay attention to rest and diet during menstruation. So, what is the reason for breast pain and missed menstruation?

How to relieve breast pain before menstruation

1. Hot compress and massage. Hot compress on the breasts can promote blood circulation and relieve breast pain. You can also apply hot compress with a towel dipped in salt water.

2. Massage. Massage every night 7-10 days before menstruation can also relieve the swelling and pain. First, use the palms of both hands to gently wrap one breast from both sides. Then tighten your hands and use your thumbs at the base of the breasts to push the breasts upward from the bottom. Repeat 10 times on each side to promote blood and lymph circulation. It should be noted that when the breasts are swollen and painful, it is best not to do massage to avoid excessive stimulation to the breasts.

3. Reduce salt intake. Because foods containing too much salt can cause breast enlargement, if you consume too much salt in the two days before your period, you can easily experience breast pain. This is something you need to pay attention to, and try to pay attention to your salt intake in the previous week.

4. Do not eat raw or cold food before menstruation. Raw or cold food will cause blood circulation problems and increase the risk of breast pain.

5. Choose the right underwear. If a bra is too small, it will compress the breasts, causing poor blood circulation and thus causing swelling and pain. If a bra is too large, it will cause the breasts to be unstable and get hurt during exercise.

Before menstruation, not only will breast pain occur, but also headaches, dizziness, diarrhea, edema, mood swings and other symptoms. These symptoms will appear about a week before menstruation and will worsen 2-3 days before menstruation. Therefore, before menstruation, female friends should pay attention to a balanced diet, get more rest, avoid fatigue, dress warmly, and prevent cold stimulation to ensure normal menstruation.
