Why do I have breast pain during menstruation?

Menstruation is something that women both look forward to and fear. Women look forward to it because the normal arrival of menstruation is a sign of good health. Only when women are sick will they experience symptoms such as irregular menstruation. Most women are afraid of the arrival of menstruation, because menstruation can consume women's body energy, causing body deficiency and causing various uncomfortable symptoms. Let's take a look at why breast pain occurs during menstruation?

Many people have probably encountered such a situation: they always feel breast pain a few days before menstruation. Many people often feel very scared because breast pain is often one of the manifestations of many gynecological diseases.

If breast pain occurs a few days before menstruation, the most likely cause is breast hyperplasia, followed by premenstrual syndrome.

1. Breast hyperplasia is caused by estrogen secretion disorder in the body, which is related to endocrine disorders. Under normal circumstances, when a person is about to menstruate, estrogen will increase significantly. At this time, the effect of estrogen on the breast will cause breast pain.

When breasts hurt a few days before menstruation, probably all women want to touch the painful area with their hands, right? This is human instinct. If you touch it with your hands, you may feel a small lump. As the menstruation ends, the lump will become smaller and softer. When the breast pain is relieved, please be sure to worry, because this is breast hyperplasia.

Although breast hyperplasia is a common gynecological disease in women, you must be vigilant when you encounter cystic breast hyperplasia and atypical hyperplasia of the breast duct epithelium, because these two types of breast hyperplasia are usually cancerous in nature and are precancerous lesions.

2. It is premenstrual syndrome that is at work. The occurrence of premenstrual syndrome can also cause breast pain a few days before menstruation.

However, in addition to breast pain a few days before menstruation, premenstrual syndrome has more than 150 symptoms, and each person's manifestations are different. Therefore, if breast pain occurs a few days before menstruation, please rule out the possibility of breast hyperplasia, worry about whether you have premenstrual syndrome, and pay more attention to your diet. A low-salt diet can relieve symptoms.

Although breast pain is a common symptom of many gynecological diseases, as far as the question of what causes breast pain a few days before menstruation is concerned, since the pain time is limited, the most likely types of gynecological diseases are breast hyperplasia and premenstrual syndrome. These two diseases must not be taken lightly, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.
