Patient's question:
I have been experiencing breast tenderness during the premenstrual period for a while, and I'm not sure what's going on. Hello, is it normal to have breast tenderness before menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Premenstrual breast tenderness and pain are likely manifestations of pain caused by hormonal fluctuations in the body before menstruation. This condition is relatively common among women. If the pain is accompanied by lumps, it may be due to breast hyperplasia, which could be related to endocrine disorders, stress, overwork, and overtime work. In this case, it is recommended to undergo a breast ultrasound examination at a local regular hospital. Regular gynecological check-ups should be scheduled annually to achieve early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment. Additionally, it is important to properly arrange your lifestyle, focus on protein, vitamin, and trace element intake, maintain a positive mood, avoid overtime work, and pay attention to exercise.
