Why do I have chest pain during my period?

Generally speaking, breast pain before menstruation every month is related to the increase of estrogen in women's bodies. It is normal. If there is no other reason, the pain will go away after menstruation. If this situation persists for a long time and the pain does not disappear after menstruation comes, it may be lobular hyperplasia. This disease should be treated in the hospital in time.

It is normal for breast pain to disappear after the menstruation is over. This is mainly because the estrogen and progesterone levels in the human body gradually increase before the menstruation, so the mammary gland proliferates due to the influence of hormones and the tissue edema, resulting in breast pain. When menstruation comes, estrogen and progesterone levels drop sharply and the symptoms disappear. In traditional Chinese medicine, most cases involve liver qi disharmony. If the distension and pain is more obvious and lasts for a long time, drug intervention should be given.

Treatment:

1. Perform a breast B-ultrasound examination after the menstruation is over to rule out organic lesions, such as breast hyperplasia; 2. Those with mild symptoms can be relieved through lifestyle adjustments, emotional adjustments, and diverting attention; 3. Those with more severe symptoms can be treated with oral medications, such as Western hormones, which have direct effects, but long-term use is prone to side effects; I personally recommend oral Chinese medicine or Chinese patent medicine, mainly to soothe the liver and relieve depression, eliminate symptoms and relieve pain, such as Xiaoyaosan, Chaihu Shugansan, etc.

Many women experience chest pain before menstruation. Generally speaking, it is normal. As long as the pain is not severe, it will not affect your health. Proper massage can relieve the pain. If you are in a bad mood or anxious, it may also have some impact, so you need to adjust your mentality. You can also take some Chinese medicine for conditioning, and there will be improvement soon.
