What is the cause of breast pain before menstruation?

Menstruation is one of the physiological characteristics of women. Women affectionately call it "Aunt Flo" or "good friend". Menstruation comes every month and lasts for five to seven days. Before menstruation comes, the body will give you some hints to tell you to be prepared to avoid embarrassment. Breast pain and lumps may be felt, but these symptoms will subside when the menstrual period comes and disappear when the menstrual period ends. Some women will experience such symptoms during ovulation.

1. Take Chinese patent medicine Xiaoyao Pills and Rupixiao for treatment. Maintain a regular life, adjust your mood, relax, and take regular physical exercise, but don't make yourself too tired. Keep your breasts clean and wash them frequently with warm water.

2 Breast pain can be physiological or pathological. It is normal for women to experience pain and tenderness before their menstrual period (due to hormone levels after ovulation). If the symptoms are severe or irregular, or there are local breast lumps, etc., they are pathological and require diagnosis and treatment by going to the hospital's surgery or breast specialist department for B-ultrasound and mammography examinations.

About a week before menstruation, breast pain may occur due to the increase in estrogen levels in the body. This is a normal physiological phenomenon. But the possibility of breast hyperplasia is not ruled out. It is recommended to check the condition and determine the treatment.

4 Premenstrual tension syndrome is related to the increased ratio of total estrogen/progesterone in the body. Excessive or relatively excessive estrogen in the body causes water and sodium retention in the body, resulting in symptoms such as edema and headache. In addition, people who are usually nervous, irritable, and depressed are also prone to premenstrual syndrome. This discomfort usually begins 7-14 days before the menstrual period and worsens 2-3 days before the menstrual period. It manifests as mental tension, nervousness, irritability or depression, general fatigue, easy fatigue, insomnia, headache, lack of concentration, memory loss, etc.

5. Some people may also experience swelling of the hands, feet, and face, distension and pain in the lower abdomen, and breast tenderness. These mental symptoms and water and sodium retention symptoms disappear or are significantly alleviated after menstruation.

As mentioned above, breast pain occurs before menstruation and disappears after menstruation. This symptom is normal and occurs in many women. Generally, no treatment is required, just maintain a good mood and a normal schedule. If breast pain persists for a long time and is irregular, it may be breast hyperplasia. You need to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination and have the doctor prescribe medication for treatment. Breast pain is divided into physiological pain and pathological pain. Physiological pain will be relieved and eliminated with the discharge of menstrual blood, while pathological pain will last for a long time and there will be obvious lumps.
