My breasts hurt when I touch them during menstruation

Breast pain during menstruation is generally considered a normal physiological phenomenon and is also related to breast hyperplasia and mastitis.

1. Physiological phenomenon: It may be because menstruation causes the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body to increase, which in turn stimulates the proliferation of breast follicle tissue and soft tissue edema, causing pain, and sometimes even obvious breast swelling. At the same time, some women may also experience palpitations, anxiety, insomnia and other problems, which may be caused by endocrine disorders. Generally speaking, breast pain occurs when menstruation comes, and the symptoms of breast pain will gradually ease after menstruation ends.

2. Breast hyperplasia: Breast hyperplasia can easily cause breast pain, but it is also accompanied by lumps caused by the shoulder vertebrae and breast pain during menstruation. You can take milk capsules and Xiaoyao pills for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Mastitis: Microbial infection can cause inflammation of breast tissue and breast pain. There will be lumps when pressing with your hands, and the condition will worsen during menstruation. Intravenous drip can be used for treatment under the guidance of a doctor. The drugs used generally include amoxicillin sodium and ceftriaxone sodium.

If breast pain lasts for a long time or the symptoms do not ease after menstruation, it may be related to mastitis and breast hyperplasia. You can choose to do a breast B ultrasound examination to eliminate organic lesions. Usually, you should pay attention to rest, relax, avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, wear loose underwear, and avoid pressing and touching the breasts.
