Causes of breast pain before period

Many female friends will have some discomfort symptoms a few days before menstruation, but everyone's physical condition is different so the situation will be different. Some female friends will experience breast pain a few days before menstruation, but most female friends don’t know what causes this and often make random guesses. So what is the cause of breast pain before menstruation?

Many women experience breast fullness, hardness, and tenderness before menstruation. In severe cases, the breasts will swell and hurt 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.

Breast tenderness occurs too early before menstruation, after menstruation is over or after ovulation, and it hurts when putting on underwear or touching. This phenomenon is pathological and can easily lead to gynecological diseases such as infertility and breast tumors.

Premenstrual breast pain is an early and important signal of gynecological disease. Strictly speaking, female breasts are part of the reproductive system and are greatly affected by estrogen and progesterone. If the body's endocrine system or ovarian function is disturbed at a certain stage, it will affect the menstrual cycle and breast tissue, thereby causing a series of diseases. The most common and mildest symptom is premenstrual breast swelling. If necessary conditioning or treatment is not given, more discomfort will occur, such as: premenstrual headaches, irritability, insomnia, even premenstrual body pain, mild edema, etc. These symptoms gradually disappear after menstruation and occur repeatedly once a month. Medically, they are called premenstrual tension syndrome. If things go on like this, breast disease will develop, the most common of which is breast hyperplasia. Menstruation may also be disrupted, resulting in menstrual disorders or amenorrhea, which will lead to infertility.

In fact, breast pain before menstruation is a very normal phenomenon. Although it is not a disease, it still needs attention. If the pain is severe, you must go to the hospital for a check-up in time, because it is likely to cause breast diseases, so you must adjust your body under the doctor's advice.
