Hello,
I read your question thoroughly and can understand your concern very well.

Sometimes it can be due to hormonal changes when you are about to have your periods and it will go away as your period will start. But if you feel any solid swelling by your hand and the problem persists, then i would advise you to consult a gynecologist and get yourself examined thoroughly.

Hope this will help and feel free to ask any of your further relevant questions, i will be happy to guide you.
