Thanks for ypur question on HCM. Sexual intercourse os similar to strenuous exercise. So you are having wheezing and coughing on exersion. For this we have to rule out pulmonary causes and cardiac causes.
So better to get done
1. Chest x ray and pulmonary function test (PFT) To rule out pulmonary cause.
2. ECG and 2D Echo to rule out cardiac cause.
In your case your symptoms are much in favour of chronic bronchitis. So get done PFT for diagnosis.
