A member asked:
What can cause a missed heart beat during love making or after?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Adrenaline: Your body makes a potent stimulant that raises your heart rate and blood pressure during sexual activity. It can also make the heart more prone to irregular rhythms perceived as a missed beat and known as a palpitation. While palpitations occur in otherwise healthy patients, thay can also be a marker of underlying heart disease, such that an evaluation by your doctor would be wise.
