Hi,
Thanks for the query.
The possible causes are :
-Infection of the fallopian tubes. Rarely large tubo-ovarian masses can be palpable per abdomen in case of lean individuals.
But this may not vary with menstrual cycle.
-Abdominal hernia.
-During premenstrual phase, blood supply will increase to internal genital organs.
That may give some sensation of swelling.
If the problem persists, better to go for ultrasound once.
Ultrasound helps in finding out the cause for your problem.
Depending on that treatment can be taken.
Take care.
