Abstract
Sixteen postmenopausal women underwent electrophysiologic study before and 20 minutes after the administration of sublingual estradiol 17 beta or plac ebo. Estradiol 17 beta significantly affected electrophysiologic parameters , thereby suggesting its role in the development of palpitations in women.
