Breast Pain:
The breast pain that lasts for more than a week, which is 7 days, is a common sign of pregnancy. At the same time, a lot of women experience breast pain during PMS and this pain is for a short while. The breast pains because the body continues to produce the progesterone hormone to help support the pregnancy.
When Does PMS Start?:
PMS begins 5 days before your period. However, if you are experiencing pain in the breast and cramping well before these 5 days, it may not be PMS.
Is It A Negative Pregnant Test?:
The best way to determine a pregnancy is to take a pregnancy test. However, most of the tests are not accurate. But, if you want to feel the signs of pregnancy, it is advisable to take the test in the morning, before consuming any liquid, as it will not hinder with the HCG levels in the body.
