Breast swelling, is it the menstrual period?

Each of the female reproductive organs is closely connected, especially the female breasts and the female reproductive system. If there is an abnormality in the reproductive system, it will cause abnormalities in the breasts, and most women will sometimes feel obvious pain in their breasts. There will be obvious physical reactions before menstruation, so does a woman's breast pain mean that she is about to have her menstruation?

The progesterone level may increase before menstruation. Under this circumstance, the mammary ducts are prone to dilation, resulting in a feeling of breast tenderness. Therefore, some women may experience breast tenderness and menstruation in about a week. However, after pregnancy, the level of progesterone in the body is relatively high, so there will be obvious breast pain. Therefore, if you have sexual intercourse, you need to rule out the possibility of pregnancy first.

Whether it is the ovulation period or the upcoming menstruation, it is because the cyclical changes in endocrine hormones stimulate the breasts. Friends who experience breast pain during ovulation or before menstruation often have varying degrees of breast hyperplasia. Slight hyperplasia due to changes in hormone levels, accompanied by slight edema, will make the breasts feel a little bigger.

The breast distension that occurs in early pregnancy is the benign stimulation of the female endocrine system after the fertilized egg implants, which leads to the development of the mammary gland, which gradually grows into a state suitable for feeding the baby throughout the pregnancy. In contrast, breast swelling in early pregnancy will be accompanied by other physical reactions during pregnancy. For example, some people may experience drowsiness, sensitivity to odors, and excessive flatulence. Of course, the most direct manifestation is delayed menstruation.

Of course, it is still difficult to distinguish whether it is menstruation or pregnancy based solely on the degree of bloating or the feeling of bloating, because the two bloating feelings are not much different. However, you can come in and make a joint judgment based on other body sensations.

The most direct way to feel it is to check whether you are pregnant. You can use test strips after delaying your period for three to five days, or you can have blood drawn ten days after having sex during ovulation. In general, women's breasts are relatively fragile, so no matter what kind of swelling and pain you experience, you need to take good care of them.
