Having intense heart palpitations and shortness of breath is frightening. All your exams looked good, but Marvelon, your birth control pill, could be causing these episodes. You must discuss this problem with a gynecologist and consider alternate contraceptives. Switching might help reduce symptoms and enhance your well-being.
