PVC's and Menopause

I've read several posts indicating that pvc's tend to calm down after menopause.  I am 44 years old and have had PVC's for close to 20 years. Now that I am peri-menopausal my number of daily pvc's has increased from 50 to 100 per day to 2,000 to 5,000 per day. I just found out that I have stage 4 endometriosis requiring a hysterectomy. I will be instantly thrown into menopause. Will my pvc's end?

I'm just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. Could my hysterectomy possibly give me something to look forward to?

I know it has been two years since your comment on your PVCs, It is almost the same exact symptoms I have, did the hysterectomy help?

I agree.  My doctor told me a LOOOOONG time ago that as I got older, my PVCs would calm down.  HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

I personally think PVC's are caused by more than hormone fluctuations so menopause probably won't make them go away. I'm menopausal and still have a jerky, jumpy heart. As for numbers, they vary from week to week, month to month.
