Generally, breast pain three days before menstruation may be a sign that menstruation is about to come or that there is early pregnancy, which is a normal phenomenon.

This phenomenon is pathological and must be treated as soon as possible, otherwise it is easy to develop gynecological diseases such as infertility and breast tumors.

Severe patients may begin to experience symptoms two weeks after menstruation, around ovulation. Some people experience distension and pain in the armpits, or even in the nipples. Systemic symptoms include mild edema, headache, insomnia, irritability, emotional instability, back pain, lower abdominal distension and pain, and difficulty in defecation.
