Pvc's and hormones

[nea1]

About 6 years ago i started getting heartburn which i had never had before.then my heart would race. i went to the er only to be told i was fine. Well then i started to get skipped beats, one everyonce in awhile. Then i got panic attacks. Well now panic atacks are gone but every month during my cycle and ovulation i get PVC's, some times two or three in a row but never very often like that most of the time 56 an hour if that. i have had 2 ekg's and blood work they say i am fine. I am 36 these started when  i turned 30 is it possible hormones have something to do with it. i never have pain. And the only times i have ever passed out was when I hadnt eaten all day and exercised in the heat and another time when i was pregnant. Any ideas.

6 years may feel like forever.  I was diagnosed with SVT and PACs at age 16.  I'm about to turn 29.  I can't say it's a whole lot less frustrating now, but I have learned to manage it better.

Thanks. i am learning to live with them, but they do somewhat run my life when they happen. 6 years is a long time. I hate them. They have increased in numbers over the years but I dont feel them as hard. The ones I get that scare me are the ones that are two or three in a row. But my heart rythm always goes back to normal. My BP is 106/70 always.

Hormones are a big contributor to my PVCs and virtually all of my female friends have gotten them in their mid to late 30's.  My dental hygenist has them, my hair stylist has them, my friend who is a cardiac nurse has them - all started in mid to late 30's.  You are not alone.  Ovulation and menstruation make them worse.

Hormones are one of the biggest (if not the biggest) factors in my PAC/PVC frequency.
