Molimina

« Back to Glossary Index

The set of normal experiences that tells a woman that her period is coming and that she has ovulated. Most specific of these is the development of breast tenderness under the armpit when the rest of the breast is not sore. Other experiences include some increase in fluid retention, perhaps an increase in appetite and possibly an increased sensitivity to the emotion in everyday experiences. It is different from premenstrual symptoms because it is less intense and indicates ovulation.
