What Causes Chest Pain?
Hi, I am 25, healthy, I don't smoke i drink only occasionally and weight a normal weight. I am worry because i get chest pain on the left side. I realised it is always 1 week after I finished my periods and i think I have had this for a long time. It is uncomfortable for a week and after it usually goes. My doctor said my blood pressure is good, the bloods test came up good, i have no short of breath and no heart desease history in my family. It doesnt get particularly worse if i make an effort. Is it pms ?

Hello,
Since you are young and this pain is regular and associated ten days after periods, the possibility of hormonal imbalance related pain is more likely. But get done ECG and 2D echo to rule out heart diseases. If these two are normal, then no need to worry about heart diseases. Get done hormone levels to rule out the hormonal imbalance. You may need hormone pills to regulate hormones. Once your hormones normalize, you will be alright. So consult a gynecologist and discuss all these.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
