PVC's More Freq during Ovulation?

[kd1980]

Has anyone noticed having more frequent pvc's or ones that last a little longer during ovulation or during your cycle?  I have noticed mine getting worse during ovulation.  I also, tend to run low on iron, so that could be part of it I guess.  Just curious to know if anyone else has seen this pattern?

I also just started getting these heart palpitations and it's scaring me. I feel pain under my left breast but I'm not sure if it's from that or not. I also have endometriosis and sometimes I think it has spread . I'm making an appointment Monday for my on gun. I also have thyroid issues so I wonder if all of the above can cause the heart flutters?? It gives me anxiety and makes me so scared. I'm 31 and have never experienced this until just recently. Am I going crazy?

No your not going crazy. I’m 36 and having the exact same on the nose problems I have thyroid,
Parathyroid and pcos with heart issues already SVT and POTS along with mast cell disease.

Here's a great article with some info on pvc's and the effects they have on female cycles: http://www.skippinghearts.com/articles/palpitations-period-pvc-menstruation/

Have you taken beta blockers?  I've only seen the cardiologist once and he mentioned beta blockers if my 24 hour monitor shows my pvc's to be real frequent.  I just wore the monitor yesterday and I am in the week before my period, so I felt several things yesterday.  I know it's going to show a crazy readout.  I'm glad I had them while I was wearing the monitor, but I don't want my doc to be mistaken and think I have them all the time.  My really bad times are the week before my period.  After I start and finish, I will just feel one now and then.  I guess I need to explain all that to him.  I have an echocardiogram done on Friday to check out the structure.

KD,

I can sympathize!  My heart starts acting like a freak show every month just before I ovulate. I get NSVT, PVC's, PAC's, couplets, triplets and other weird rhythms not yet caught on tape from that day and for about 3-5 more.  I then have a period of normalcy only to have it begin again about 3-5 days before my period starts.  I have a 21-25 day cycle so the palps, to me, seem nearly continuous.  But yes, even my EP doc agrees that when we have excitable cells in our hearts, female hormones can be a huge trigger.  My EP suggested that I go on a low-dose birth control pill to eliminate the monthly fluctuations.
