A member asked:

So i started having pms symptoms like 5 days after my period but i did have sex a day before the symptoms started. my breasts are swollen and hurt bad?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Premenstrual: tension. Excellent medicine is available from your GYN. You can use Advil r ibuprofen, if not allergic. Ask about low dose oral contraceptives. Lavender oil as aromatherapy, massage and white noise all are helpful.
