hi,

thanks for the brief history of you. since you mentioned you are a smoker and you had pain in the left side of the chest it is advised on a safer note to get assessed. also during menstruation you will lose blood and the hemodynamics will be disturbed as well.

I will advise to meet a cardiologist and get self checked. there is nothing harm taking an expert's advice.

prevention is better than cure, so if possible take an expert advice and if possible quiet smoking.

with the grace of God I wish you a good health.
