HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Anemia and anxiety are both possible causes of increased heart rate. There are also other causes as well.
You should consider an assessment by your doctor, he or she may suggest an ECG to look at the rhythm and rate of the heart.
In addition blood tests can be done to confirm anemia and check for thyroid disease which can also cause palpitations.
A home pregnancy test can accurately determine if you are pregnant.
I hope this helps
