    pains several days before period

    I'm getting a little worried about my pms symptoms before my period...
    I used to feel it coming on 2-3 days before. The last two months it was 5 days before any blood and this time it was 7 days (7 days late) - stomach cramps, sore breasts, only seeing light brown today.

    It might be nothing but it's different. The only answers I can find online are to do with ovarian cysts and endometriosis and I'm not sure that's it.
    I'm 20-yrs-old, not sexually active if that helps. Should I see a doctor or is it just changing...? it's been bugging me! Thanks in advance!

    Personally, I think it is PMS. Usually mine hits about 3-6 days before my period, most of the time that week is actually worse for me than the actual week of my period.

      Yeah, probably.

      It's weird that the pain is seemingly getting worse over time and I'm feeling it for longer. I'll keep an eye on it.
      Thanks!
