What causes breast pain when menstruation is coming?

There are many reasons for breast pain when menstruation is about to come. It may be caused by hormonal imbalance caused by irregular menstruation, or it may be caused by breast fullness or hardening when menstruation is about to come. Therefore, we recommend that you treat this disease well in your life to avoid affecting your life and work and rest. Let us now understand the causes of its disease.

Most breast pain is not a sign of cancer. Generally speaking, this condition is related to menstruation, with periodic swelling or tingling occurring as the menstrual cycle approaches, and then relieved or disappearing after menstruation comes. It is mostly caused by hormonal changes in the body. In fact, breast pain in most women is not serious, but some women will have pain in the armpit, shoulder or back on the same side, or even "pain at the touch". These women should go to the hospital for a breast examination as soon as possible to consider the possibility of proliferative lesions. If necessary, danazol, tamoxifen or some blood-activating and blood-stasis-dispersing drugs can be used to relieve pain.

Nowadays, many women wear small and tight bras in pursuit of cleavage, ignoring the most basic function of the bra itself, which seriously affects the blood circulation of the breasts. This is also one of the important reasons why more and more women feel breast pain. Therefore, it is recommended that female friends can "loosen" their breasts, choose suitable bras or underwear, shorten the time of wearing bras as much as possible, and do breast massage before going to bed. In addition, it is best for women of childbearing age to learn how to self-examine their breasts, especially those who have undergone breast plastic surgery. If conditions permit, they can go to a regular hospital for regular breast surgery examinations.

Contract the pectoralis major muscle and check whether the shape of the breasts is normal. During palpation, you can lie on the bed, stretch the arm being tested, raise the shoulder being tested with a pillow, and touch the breast with the flat part of the opposite finger. The fingers should be close together and stretched out, with the palm and fingers in a flat plane. Touch the breast (do not pinch it) from bottom to top and from inside to outside to see if there is thickening or lumps. If a lump is touched, determine the size, hardness, whether it is movable, whether there is tenderness, and whether it is adhered to the surrounding skin. Check the nipples for abnormalities, such as discharge or bleeding.

I believe that after reading the introduction of this article, you should all know the reason for breast pain when menstruation is about to come. For breast pain before menstruation, female friends can relieve it according to its cause. You can also massage your breasts appropriately, eat more blood-enriching foods, etc.
