Hi,
According to your symptoms, the possible diagnosis is
Premenstrual syndrome. Other possibilities can be considered are anemia,
irritable bowel syndrome, thyroid disorders etc.
In Premenstrual syndrome:
-During premenstrual phase breast tenderness,
constipation, bloating of abdomen, food craving, mood disturbances etc can be seen due to hormonal imbalance.
- Usually these will subside soon with the onset of menstrual period.
The factors that can help to decrease the symptoms are
-Adequate sleep, balanced healthy diet, plenty of oral fluids
-Regular physical exercise, yoga
-Supplements of calcium,
vitamin D3,
folic acid, vitamin B6 etc.
-Reducing the intake of sugar, coffee, salt.
You please discuss these things with your Gynecologist and follow accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Sree Gouri SR
