Hello,
Most common cause of palpitations during the menstrual period is hormonal fluctuations.
It is common in a few women. But you may also check for anaemia, hyperthyroidism or electrolyte imbalance or anxiety may cause palpitations.
Do yoga and meditation, use anxiolytic medication may help. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
