Anal Sex

Summary

Among the various kinds of sex, anal sex is the least known and most feared. Anal sex is experienced when the penis penetrates the anus of a male or female partner. It is the most commonly practised form of sex among gay couples but is not uncommon in heterosexual partners, who may opt for it for pleasure, to prevent pregnancy or to avoid using protection. A few important facts to remember about anal sex are that it is, in fact, a form of sex; it is not just for gay people; it is unlikely to get pregnant and it is not possible to have safe anal sex without using a condom. When having anal sex initially, it is imperative that you take it slow, ensuring adequate arousal before any penetration. Using a toy or finger may prime the partner better. Following minimal penetration, you can go further until you have inserted fully while pulling out completely each time.

Care is critical during anal sex, and lubricant is essential since the anal area does not produce its own. If there are any signs of untoward bleeding or rupture, a visit to the doctor is necessary. Maintaining hygiene is a must during anal sex. Using gloves to prevent injury to the partner, maintaining hygiene during and after the experience and caring for the rectal area after sex are some ways to not only enjoy anal sex but also ensure that you look forward to the next encounter.

Although anal sex is enjoyable, it doesn’t come without complications. Muscular weakness and laxity, bacterial infections, internal damage to the tissue and sexually transmitted infections are common when engaging in anal sex. It is important to be aware of these pitfalls and make sure you are well protected against them. Those engaging in anal sex are at highest risk of contracting HIV. The partner who is being penetrated is more likely to be infected than the one penetrating.
