Hello,
Most probably it's related to low hemoglobin. Blood loss further decrease your hemoglobin and may aggravate palpitations and shortness of breath. You should be iron supplements like Fericip xt or other, to raise your hemoglobin. Also, get bleeding treated from gynaecologist. Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
