Why do I have breast pain before and after my period?

Menstruation is a very annoying thing for girls, but it is something that must be experienced. Some people's mood will become worse during menstruation. This is caused by abnormal hormone levels and there is no need to worry too much. However, for some people, other parts of the body will be affected before and after menstruation, such as swollen breasts. Why is this? Let’s take a look at it together below.

1: Why do breasts swell and hurt during menstruation?

The most common condition in women that is related to the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian is liver depression and qi stagnation. The specific manifestations of liver depression and qi stagnation include irritability, depression, fullness in the flanks, etc. If the depression lasts for a long time and turns into heat, it will cause restlessness, anger, dry mouth, headache, etc. If the liver meridian's qi stagnation lasts too long, it can easily cause pathological changes in the areas where the foot jueyin liver meridian passes. As a result, breast hyperplasia and uterine fibroids will occur. In layman's terms, liver depression and qi stagnation can easily lead to diseases such as breast pain, uterine fibroids, and breast hyperplasia. Breast tenderness is often the first symptom that appears. If left untreated, serious gynecological diseases such as uterine fibroids, breast hyperplasia, and gynecological tumors are likely to occur in the future, and at that time, it will be more difficult to treat.
