I'm having a lot of problems. I am a 25 year old female and for the past month have been having extremely sore nipples, been constipated, nauseous when I eat, lower abdominal pain/discomfort, and increased urination. I only have a period every other month and I'm slightly over a week lat for my period. I don't suspect pregnancy because I do have PCOS that affects one ovary. I was wondering if I should be concerned about these things or could it just be an extreme case of PMS?

Hello and welcome to EmpowHer,
June 19, 2016 - 10:33amThe symptoms you are having are similar to symptoms caused by Endometriosis. I highly suggest you see a doctor as soon as possible and be tested for Endometriosis.
This condition gives PMS-like symptoms, irregular menstrual cycles, but it also effects the bowels, causing constipation and digestion issues.
I suggest you read more information about Endometriosis at the link below before talking to your doctor.
