Do you have toothache before your period?

Toothache before menstruation cannot be directly judged. It should be judged according to the actual situation. If there is no dental disease, there will generally be no toothache. If there is a dental disease, there will be toothache.

1. No toothache:

If the patient does not have dental disease, toothache usually does not occur before menstruation. Some women, affected by hormones in the body, may experience headaches, dizziness, weight gain, edema, breast pain, increased vaginal discharge, etc.

2. Toothache:

If the patient has tooth enamel damage, caries, gingivitis, periodontal disease, cracked teeth and other diseases, estrogen and progesterone will increase before menstruation, which will also lead to increased tooth sensitivity. Toothache may occur after cold, hot, sour and sweet stimulation. When the patient has toothache, he should go to the hospital in time, find out the cause, and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment.

When patients have toothache, they should pay more attention to rest, avoid staying up late, and ensure adequate sleep, which will help improve symptoms. They should also avoid eating cold, greasy, and spicy foods, such as ice cream, fried chicken, chili peppers, garlic, etc. They should also avoid drinking strong tea, coffee, and alcoholic beverages to avoid adverse effects on their health.
