Is Thumping Of Heart Normal During Sex?
When my girlfriend and I are intimate, she likes me to listen / feel her heart pumping. I have noticed that when I listen with my ear I can 'feel' her heart pushing at the side of my face but when I try to feel for it with my fingers / hand...I can't feel anything? Is this normal and where is the best place to feel her heart? Thanks.

Hello!
Welcome on HCM!
Regarding you r concern, I would explain that what you have experienced trying to catch hear heart beats is quite normal, nothing to concern about.
We can hear heart beats by using our ear gently attached to the middle of the left chest just at the breast level.
Sometimes, heart bump may b easily palpated around this area but is quite variable depending on anatomical variants (difficult in large volume breast, etc.)
Hope this will clarify your concern!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
