Hello, I'm a 22 year old female. I have a very strong abdominal pulse and had an ultra sound to make sure I didn't have an abdominal aortic aneurysm, I didn't my aorta was 1.3 cm. The other day I was using my stethoscope to listen and I heard a bruit, turbulent blood flow throughout the aorta. I'm wondering if this could be benign, I'm very thin, and I don't have high cholesterol so if it's not an aneurysm, and it's not from high blood pressure or high cholesterol, what else could cause a bruit in the abdominal aorta? I also have palpitations that I will be wearing a heart monitor for in about a week to diagnose. Thanks for the input
