      I have been getting short of breath before my period. I talked to my doctor, and he said he hasn't heard of such a thing. I am 32, and it never happened to me before. What could be the reason? Thank you.

        Hey, @Suhani I also had the same problem, and my doctor said it was in my mind but I knew there was something wrong. The shortness of breath that you are experiencing is Catamenial asthma. Catamenial asthma is asthma that is associated with your menstrual cycle. Though the precise cause is unclear, there are various theories about how hormonal fluctuations may cause shortness of breath. Thank you.
