Is A Feeling Of Butterflies In The Stomach During Oral Sex Due To Pleasure Or Something Else?

So me an my girlfriend just got done having oral sex. A she said while I was going down on her while I was doing it she had butterflies in her stomach an had to hold her stomach. I was just wondering if it had anything to do with pleasure or anything worse.

Hello,

It is a normal response, you need not worry. When there is emotional intimacy and excitement, it heightens the response. If she is highly attracted to you, the response is due to vulnerability, emotional intensity, and love, of course. Fluttery feeling, is a natural part of arousal and her body’s unique way of responding to intimacy.

Or it may be due to fear or performance anxiety. Ask her if she has gastrointestinal issues like acid reflux. Tell her to breathe, not hold it during intense moments. Don’t rush; nurture connection. Let her feel safe and cozy. Being so will help both of you to feel emotionally open and physically receptive. If you found the answer helpful, do consider giving a helpful vote.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
