Vaginal pain before and during period

Ca

Does anyone else have vaginal pain before and during their period? I thought maybe it was a yeast infection or UTI but, I have no itching and I went to the doctor and got tested for a UTI and it was negative. This has never happened to me before as I’ve felt kind of swollen down there at times but never like this. It feels like a lot of constant pressure down there. My mom says it’s normal but I’m just worried about it and can’t stop thinking about it. So far I’m on my second day of period so hopefully it will stop hurting soon.
