not sure. think it may be related to water retention.
drink plenty of water. get plenty of exercise. limit salt and starchy foods right before your period.
also, a magnesium (get the chelated form - not magnesium oxide which is basically a laxative) supplement should help.

If you know the medical explanation, I won't waste my time.
Solutions might include a tighter, better supporting bra, Advil/Motrin/Tylenol, heating pads or warm showers in the evenings. Check also with your local health-food store and see if they carry PMS Relief by Hyland's.

It is simply hormonal as you already know however I presume there would be pleanty of volunteers to help you hold them ...

i have only one suggestion for you: you could talk to your doctor and see if he/she knows what's going on. you can't be pregnant beacuse you said you have periods. sorry i couldn't be more help.
