pill and heart skipping a beat

has anyone ever heard of the pill making your heart skipping a beat i just started the pill two weeks ago i swear i can feel my heart skipping a beat ever once in a while i could be crazy.

Hi dontknow2004, welcome back!
I think heart palpitations can be a side effect of hormonal contraceptives. If I were you I'd mention your symptoms to your doctor right away and be guided by his or her advice. Let us know how you're doing, ok?
Good luck,
Jill
Hi there,
I definitely had some heart palpitations when I switched from Alesse to Yasmin and back ... I have a heart murmur anyway, so my docs did some EKGs and I had to wear the 24-hour heart monitor just to be safe - though they didn't really believe that it was from the BCPs. I do think that any side effects are possible, so like Jill said, I"d definitely let your doc know just for the peace of mind.
