My heart is racing every day for a week. and this is my ovulation. doc prescribed me fluoxetine 10 mg. would this help? i feel nervous & feel insecure

May be hormonal. : It is not unusual for women to get palpitations or a sense of the heart racing occasionally, and the reason may be hormonal fluctuations. Try to feel your pulse on your wrist when it happens to see if it correlates with the sensation of a "racing" heartbeat. You might be comforted if you see that your pulse (=heart beat) is actually normal. U can try breathing, meditation & calming herbs first.
