Patient's question:
I am 23 years old this year. This week, my breasts have been quite swollen and painful, and my period hasn't arrived yet. I thought it was about to come, but it keeps getting delayed. I want to ask, what could be the reason for this? What causes breast tenderness and pain?Doctor's answer:
Mainly, breast tenderness may be due to ovulation, which could be a possibility for pregnancy. If your period is delayed, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for an early pregnancy test. For your condition, it is advisable to have a thorough early pregnancy check-up at the hospital to see if you are pregnant. If you are not pregnant, you can visit the hospital to regulate your menstrual cycle. It is important to pay attention to dietary management in your daily life.
