The perimenopausal hormonal changes occurring in the body can itself lead to more alterations and which in turn can lead to spikes in the heart rate and fluctuations in the blood pressure. You may undergo 24 hour Holter monitor test for the fluctuation in the heart rate and 24 hour ambulatory BP monitoring test for the fluctuations in your blood pressure to have deeper insights and management if required.
