Everyday Wellness: Midlife Hormones, Menopause, and Science for Women 35+ · Ep. 531 Your Heart’s Not Just Skipping Beats – The Shocking Truth About Palpitations in Women | Women's Cardiovascular Health with Dr. Sanjay Bhojraj · 20 Dec 2025 podcast

We mentioned the electrophysiology doctors.

So if there are areas like little rogue spots in your heart,

heart that are causing these early episodes to happen or those short circuits inside the heart where the heart, the wiring kind of bypasses the normal conduction system and is leading to early beats.

They can actually go in and zap those out.

In fact, my father-in-law had to have that done.

He was having something called a premature ventricular contraction, which generally is benign, but he was having about 30% of his all beats as PBCs.

And over time that can actually lead to weakening of the heart muscle.

So a buddy of mine did a PBC ablation and

it was amazing one little zap like on the spot one little you know less than two second zap and he's been cured and that was probably seven or eight years ago so it's really remarkable what they're able to do but but it can range from something as simple as you know balancing your life to balancing your electrolytes to going in and getting an invasive procedure again it depends on what's needed in the certain in that situation

Yeah.

So there's the atria, right on the top chamber, and there's the ventricle.

And in between, there's a little thin strip of conduction tissue called the AV node.

And in there, I mentioned short circuits.

So sometimes you can have short circuits in there, or you can have short circuits called bypass tracks in that kind of thin demilitarized zone between the top and bottom chambers of the heart.

And those are interesting, actually, depending on what happens.

You can sometimes even just do something as simple as a carotid massage, increased vagal tone that can get people out.

This is not a DIY.

Don't do this at home.

Yeah.

Don't do this at home, but there are things that you can do and that's a temporizing measure, but ultimately, you know, that is a great place for the electrical doctors to go in, map out the conduction circuitry of the heart, find out where this, we call it a bypass track.
