Suggest Treatment For MVP And Increased Heart Beat During Pregnancy
Hello. I'm a 38-year-old female. I'm 5 months pregnant. I have MVP. I've had extra heartbeats for over 20 years; however, I have noticed that they are growing in frequency since the start of my pregnancy. I hate them. They always scare me. I've had tests done years ago. Should I be concerned now more than before?

Hi,
I would advise you to have a holter monitoring done, it is a test when you are given a small device for a day and your 24 hour ECG is registered. If the arrhythmias are not much during a day, there is nothing to be worried even if you feel them.
Take care
Come back if you have any further questions
