For lots of women, you get cramps in your stomach first. Then, Your period starts to come out.

PMS also occours before and sometimes during your period.

Physical symptoms include:

  • backaches
  • bloating due to fluid retention
  • breast tenderness, fullness, and pain
  • changes in appetite (includes cravings for certain foods like chocolate)
  • constipation or diarrhea
  • dizziness
  • headaches or migraines
  • feeling of heaviness or pressure in the pelvis
  • hot flashes
  • difficulty falling asleep
  • joint pain and swelling
  • lack of energy
  • nausea and vomiting
  • severe fatigue
  • skin problems such as acne or itching
  • temporary weight gain
  • worsening of existing Allergies

Mood changes

  • agitation
  • anger
  • depression
  • irritability
  • mood swings
  • nervousness
  • feeling sad, hopeless, or overwhelmed

Mental changes

  • confusion
  • difficulty concentrating
  • memory loss or forgetfulness

The actuall flow of blood can sometimes be mistaken for urinating or discharge.

Does it pain just like periods if you are pregnant my periods are delayed by 4 days and still not come my thighs are painin and all the the symptoms are just like periods?

There is no pain like the pain before and during your periods, associated in the beginning of a pregnancy. If you had unprotected sex, you always have a chance to get pregnant if you don't use oral or other types of contraception. If you are pregnant, symptoms like headache, nausea, change in your appetite, tiredness, pain in the lower part of torso will appear. Also, if you feel like your breast are heavy, tense, and getting bigger suddenly (not in a normal way, not like sometimes when you are about to have your periods), you have big chances of being pregnant. If you aren't, the pain associated with periods like pain in your thighs, great pain down your stomach, little headache, change in your mood is just normal and sometimes periods come late for no specific reasons.Hope this helps! And good luck!
