Back pain, chest pain, and no menstruation yet

I have lower back pain and chest pain before my period. Generally speaking, these symptoms are common before my period. First of all, you need to rule out pregnancy. If your period is delayed for more than a week, you should pay attention to it. It may be due to pregnancy or some other reasons. Certain symptoms often occur before menstruation. In addition to lower back pain and chest pain, there will be increased vaginal discharge and headaches.

Back pain, chest pain, and no menstruation yet

If you have sex, you should first rule out early pregnancy, as it is not yet time for your period, which is due on the 9th. After ruling out early pregnancy, relax, avoid cold and irritating foods, keep your abdomen warm, and drink more brown sugar water, and your period will come faster.

Premenstrual symptoms

What are the symptoms before menstruation? I believe that every woman will have some "warning signals" before menstruation. What are these "warning signals"? Let me introduce them below!

1. Water retention. Many women will experience edema before their period. Common areas of edema are the hands, feet, eyelids, etc. Some women may also gain a slight weight due to edema.

2. Premenstrual headache. This symptom is more obvious and often occurs a few days before menstruation, and may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, etc. Premenstrual headaches may be persistent or come and go, which may be related to intermittent intracranial edema.

3. Pelvic pain. Before menstruation, some women will experience pelvic distension and lumbar pain, which is mainly caused by the action of the prostate or congestion of pelvic tissues.

4. Breast pain. I believe that many women have encountered this situation. In the days before menstruation, they often feel fullness, swelling and pain in the breasts, mostly on the outer edge of the breasts and the nipple area. This condition usually disappears with the onset of menstruation.

5. Moods easily fluctuate. Before menstruation, women's moods often change greatly, and they are prone to becoming irritable. Even over trivial matters, they will quarrel and cry and lose control of themselves. Once your period ends, things will get better soon.

Increased vaginal discharge before menstruation

Leucorrhea is a barometer of women's health. Normal leucorrhea is milky white or colorless and transparent, with a slightly fishy smell or no smell. Moreover, leucorrhea changes with the menstrual cycle. So, what is the reason for increased vaginal discharge before menstruation? Let me explain it to you below.

Increased vaginal discharge can be divided into two types: physiological and pathological.

Physiological increase in vaginal discharge: During the ovulation period every month, the secretion of estrogen in the body reaches its peak. Excessive estrogen stimulates the cervical glands to secrete more mucus, so the vaginal discharge at this time is abundant, transparent, egg white-like, sticky and can be pulled into long filaments, and the vulva feels moist. After the ovulation of the follicle, progesterone increases and inhibits the secretion of cervical mucus. At this time, the leucorrhea is less in amount and thicker. About two days before menstruation, the pelvic cavity begins to become congested and vaginal secretions begin to increase again, sometimes with a little blood in them, which indicates that menstruation is about to come.

Pathological increase in leucorrhea: One type is infectious factors, such as bacteria, gonococci, fungi, viruses and other infections; the other type is non-infectious factors, such as uterine fibroids, cervical erosion, the effects of some ovulation-inducing drugs, etc. These conditions can cause an increase in leucorrhea, and the leucorrhea is viscous or purulent and mucous, and sometimes accompanied by a fishy smell. In addition to increased vaginal discharge, symptoms such as vulvar itching or burning discomfort, lower abdominal or lumbosacral pain, etc., are all warning signs of possible gynecological diseases.
