How to resolve breast pain that occurs before and after the period?

Question

Hi doctor,

I have painful breast symptoms two weeks before my period. After my period starts, the symptoms last four more days. Finally, the breast pain lasts about 15-16 days after ovulation. I take Paracetamol to easen the pain every time, but it does nothing and is interfering with my daily activities. How can I ease the pain? Also, birth control is not an option. Kindly give your suggestions to get rid of my problem.
