Heart palpitations during period

Posted by lma84 @lma84, May 18 6:18am

I'm interested to know whether others experience heart palpitations for a few days before their period and during the period? Is there anything that can help?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Women's Health Support Group.

Hi,
I've never had this problem when I had periods. I'm 79 so periods aren't an issue anymore. You might do some research on the Mayo Clinic and check the side effects of all of the medications and over the counter medicines that you take; especially if you take something during your period. It would be a good idea to also see a doctor soon to see if it could be something starting up.

Prayer also helps. I'll say a prayer for you.
I wish you the best.

Hi, @lma84. According to Mayo Clinic, hormonal changes, like those around menstrual periods, can cause heart palpitations.

Have you shared these symptoms with your care provider?
