Breast tenderness before menstruation

Patient's question:

The breasts on both sides are sore, but the pain disappears when menstruation comes. The menstrual cycle is normal, and there is no significant dysmenorrhea. I want to ask, is this normal? Also, what should I pay attention to in my diet? Can I not eat anything containing hormones (like chicken, chicken wings, etc.)?

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis: Hello! According to your description, breast tenderness before menstruation is normal, as it is caused by hormonal changes in the female body. It usually occurs about a week before menstruation. However, if it happens more than ten days before your period, it is not normal.
Recommendation: I suggest you visit a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to have your pulse diagnosed and receive treatment. I hope this helps!
