Signs that a girl is about to get her period
Disease description:
My vaginal discharge has increased a bit, and I'm experiencing severe breast tenderness. Recently, I can't even do exercise or touch my chest because of the pain. I'm not sure if this is due to my period coming soon. What are the signs that a woman's period is about to start?

Signs that a girl's menstrual period is approaching typically include breast tenderness, mild abdominal discomfort or a feeling of heaviness. Some women may also experience mood swings, such as anxiety, irritability, or depression. These symptoms are mostly caused by hormonal fluctuations during the menstrual cycle. To alleviate these symptoms, women can adopt certain self-care measures. For example, maintaining a regular sleep schedule and ensuring sufficient rest; adjusting diet by reducing caffeine and salt intake; and engaging in moderate physical activities such as yoga or walking, which can help relieve emotional tension and physical discomfort. If symptoms are severe or persist without improvement, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly.
