There are many reasons for breast pain in women during menstruation. Some are normal physiological phenomena, while others are caused by diseases and require specific treatment. When a woman enters her menstrual period, her body organs will undergo corresponding changes. Her breasts may become swollen and hard, and painful to touch. In severe cases, the slightest vibration or touch will cause unbearable swelling and pain in the breasts.

Why does this happen? It turns out that the breast glands, like the endometrium, will also change with the menstrual cycle, mainly manifested in the premenstrual proliferative period and the postmenstrual recovery period. There are usually feelings of breast fullness, tenderness, and back pain, which usually appear 7 to 14 days before menstruation, worsen 2 to 3 days before menstruation, and disappear after menstruation. This is a normal phenomenon and women do not need to worry too much.

However, it should be noted that if the situation is more serious and the breast pain before menstruation is particularly obvious each time, it is still recommended that women go to a regular professional hospital for relevant examinations in order to rule out the possibility of breast disease as soon as possible. The reason is that cyclical breast pain before menstruation is an important sign of breast hyperplasia.

The above is an introduction to the relevant content. You should know that if you have breast pain during menstruation, it is recommended that you be careful. The best thing to do is to see a gynecologist and learn more about your physical condition. If there is nothing wrong, then everyone can rest assured. No matter what the condition is, you should pay attention to actively cooperate with the treatment.
