What are the reasons for chest pain before menstruation?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello, I would like to ask, for the past four years, my breasts have started to hurt about half a month before my period. But starting this September, my breasts haven't hurt as much, and it hasn't lasted as long. I usually have my period on the 5th of January, and today, my period hasn't come, and my breasts don't hurt either.
I had sex with my friend around the 20th of December, and we didn't use a condom. We used a plastic wrap because it was too thin, so I used three layers of 3050 plastic wrap. After we finished, the semen flowed out of the plastic wrap onto the bed. There was no irritating smell in my vagina.

Doctor's answer:
