I notice a pattern of more irregular heart beats a few days before my cycle? im going to assume hormones are triggering this?

If this is something that you are susceptible to, then hormone fluctuations could be a trigger. However, hormones will not cause any underlying cardiac condition and this needs to be properly evaluated if that has not been done. Irregular heart beats could be a sign of something serious, even life-threatening.

This platform does not allow diagnosis. Also, more info is needed: history, physical exam, lab/radiological studies if warranted. If you are experiencing irregular heartbeat the best thing to do is schedule an appt with a physician for further evaluation.

I agree with the advice to consult your physician or a cardiologist to determine the nature and cause of your palpitations. That being said, fluctuations in hormones that occur just prior to menses can definitely be a cause of palpitations described as racing,skipping or fluttering of the heart beat.
