Hello and welcome to HCM
You have mentioned that your breasts enlarge and are painful especially during periods.
These symptoms point towards Fibrocystic Disease.
Fibrocystic disease is commonly seen in young and middle aged females.
It is a hormonally sensitive disease.
It is characterised by pain specially during periods. The breasts show fibrosis and undergo cystic change.
It requires pain killers, hormones and topical application of oil of primrose.
You may strap your breasts for some relief.
Visit your surgeon, get a mammography & FNAC done.
Depending on the findings treatment will be given
Thanks ane take care
