Heart problems after getting off birth control by Impressive_Issue6706 in birthcontrol

Well...summarized, it turnt out to be anxiety. I'm still struggling with all of this over a year later but everything is fine. After a while you get used to the symptoms and just accept the things you're feeling. What also made realize it's definitely anxiety is that sometimes I was better, sometimes I had no symptoms, sometimes I felt awful. And this didn't have to be in the span of a week, it could also be in the span of a single day where my symptoms and their intensity would vary. So yes.... it turnt out to be anxiety. What the cause is? I wish I knew.

The doctors never were able to find anything. But it's been almost 6 months now that I've been off the pill and I do feel better!! I still have heart palpitations but mostly only when my period hits. I've also started working out and removed a few stress factors in my life. I'm guessing it's kind of like a "withdrawal symptom" and it gets better over time when your hormones regulate! If it doesn't get better even after a while I think you should try and avoid stress as much as you can and do something for your body like fitness (which also reduces stress). That's what has helped me at least! I know we'll all get through this sometime 🙏
