Anal sex - what you need to know

Although sex is considered taboo by some people, in reality, it is a part of life. The perspective on sex has changed over time; previously, sex was only for reproduction, but later, it came to be seen as a source of pleasure, passion, and relaxation. New fantasies have been created to enhance lust, one of which is anal sex, sometimes referred to as "rectal sex." Improper anal sex can harm your health. However, this is mainly due to unprotected and incorrect practices. To have healthy sex and reduce the risks of sexually transmitted diseases, it is crucial to understand the dangers and safety measures associated with anal sex.

To experience safe and pleasurable anal sex, three important factors are essential:

Lubricating cream or lubricant
Protection (condom)
Mutual desire and understanding

Motivation

First and foremost, the important factor is the presence of desire. You might have doubts or anxieties, which is natural. You can't determine if you will enjoy it without trying. If you are doing it reluctantly to please your partner, the sex may fail in terms of both pleasure and safety. Prepare yourself psychologically before starting. It's like creating harmony with your body. If you feel pain, slow down, use more cream, and talk to your partner. Anal sex should be painless. If it causes pain, it means you are not doing it correctly.

Cleanliness

Anal sex involves the contact of two organs: the penis and the rectum. The rectum and anus are not storage organs for feces but passageways. Therefore, it's advisable to clean the bowels a little before sex and then touch the anal canal with your finger under water. After that, you can be sure that nothing remains in the rectum except microscopic particles. Sometimes, an enema is used to pre-clean the rectum, which is also appropriate.

Preparation for Sex

Before sex, it would be good if you or your partner familiarizes themselves with your anal anatomy and the reactions to touch by "exercising" the anal opening with a finger. In this case, nails must be cut! You need to apply cream to the finger and the anal area beforehand. If the anus contracts, stop the penetration attempts and return to erotic massage of the anus. After some time, you can try inserting a finger into the anus again. After penetration, do not push the finger too deep. Gradually try to widen the anus, making small circular movements with the finger. When the person feels comfortable, you can insert the finger a little deeper.

Sex

Once the person feels fully ready, the penis can be gently inserted into the anal opening in a comfortable position. Three essential aids will assist you at this time: 1) Cream (lubricant), 2) Protection, 3) Patience. If there is pain, be patient and use the cream, then continue. Your partner's kisses and other sexual actions will further relax you.

ATTENTION! Dangers

When engaging in anal sex, forget about the positions you see in porn videos, especially if this is your first anal sex. Many of these positions can be dangerous. The anus is covered with many small nerve endings and is very delicate in structure. Therefore, being stressed and anxious can make the anus tighten further. If unprepared or rushed anal sex occurs, it can cause tears and bleeding in the anus tissues. These tears can cause pain and create conditions for sexually transmitted diseases and infections from bacteria in this area. One of the extremely dangerous conditions is damage to the rectum, which can lead to severe bacterial infections.

Remember! After anal sex, you should not have oral sex or vaginal sex without cleaning. Certain bacteria in the intestines can cause infections in other organs. Therefore, it is essential to clean the penis with soap and water and use a new condom.

Protection (Condom)

Having sex without protection can lead to various complications. This applies to both vaginal and anal sex. Using protection will protect you from diseases and prevent unwanted pregnancies. Some recommendations regarding protection:
