Can Heavy Menstrual Cycle Aggravate Afib Conditions?
I go into afib quite often. I take a medication to slow my heart rate. However when my menstral cycle begins my afib gos crazy. My last eppisode happened on Saturday night. I went into afib all night until Sunday at apx. 12:00 pm it stopped. I am still having extreme exhauston and shortness of breath though I am not in afib anymore. Does my heavy menstral cycle do this to me? What can I do now to get back to "normal"? cAN i STOP MY MENSTRAL CYCLES? Thank you
