With the opening of minds, more and more people are looking for more exciting ways to have sex. As a result, anal sex, as an "alternative" sexual behavior, has received more and more widespread attention. Although this method of sex can bring strong sexual feelings, there are still many dangers. Let’s learn about it together!

What are the dangers of anal sex?

Anal sex is prone to sexually transmitted diseases

The risk of anal intercourse is many times higher than that of vaginal intercourse. The biggest problem is the susceptibility to infection. The main reason is that the rectum can easily absorb liquids and the anal structure can easily be damaged during anal intercourse. If one party has a sexually transmitted disease, such as HIV, amoeba, chlamydia, etc., it can be easily transmitted through unprotected anal sex. Even if a condom is worn, it can easily break or fall off during anal intercourse, causing danger.

Anal intercourse causes anal structural damage

The tissues of the anus and rectum do not secrete fluids for lubrication like the vagina does. Therefore, anal sex can easily tear the anal sphincter if lubricant is not used. In order to reduce the sensitivity of the anus, some people use alcohol and other drugs on the area, which makes it more likely to cause damage.

It’s easy to get fecal matter during anal sex

There is feces in the anus and rectum, which contains a large number of infectious microorganisms. Even if an enema is performed before anal intercourse, it is often not clean. After anal intercourse, fingers and genitals are stained with feces, which leads to the spread of bacteria. Contaminated food and tableware allow bacteria to enter the human digestive tract. After an incubation period of 6 to 72 hours, the patient develops severe salmonella and other infections, and may suddenly experience abdominal pain and diarrhea. , nausea, vomiting and fever symptoms, and some people also have headaches, muscle pain, and back pain. If treatment is not timely and thorough, it can easily become chronic.

Severe pain after anal intercourse

As long as you are not careful during anal sex, both parties may feel pain, and sometimes the pain is quite severe. A survey found that 12% of gay men think anal sex is too painful to have. The main cause of pain is that the anal sphincter is covered with pain-sensing nerve endings. Studies have shown that anal sex pain is related to both physiological and psychological factors, including insufficient lubrication, anxiety and tension, among which psychological factors are the main ones. Increasing communication between the two parties, taking good lubrication measures, and fully relaxing may reduce the pain.

What should you pay attention to if you want to try anal sex?

Lubricant is by no means a luxury for anal sex, it is a must. Because the vagina itself has sufficient secretion function, especially during sexual excitement, the rectum does not. It only has very limited secretions, which is far from enough for comfortable penetration. The lubricant chosen for anal intercourse should be water-based, but relatively thick. The dosage should be more, or even more, the better, but be careful not to let the lubricant flow into the vagina through the perineum.

The tissues of the anal canal and rectum are very delicate and cannot withstand friction and stimulation like the vaginal mucosa. The advantage of its delicate nature is that it is sensitive to all kinds of contact, and the disadvantage of it is that it requires extra care during insertion. Without adequate foreplay warm-up and appropriate protection, it is likely to tear the rectal mucosa, causing discomfort, irritation and pain to the recipient. Even if the purpose of tonight is anal sex, you need to stimulate all of his or her sensitive areas and make the other person highly aroused so that the muscles can truly relax.

It’s best to use a slender tool or finger to explore first. You can completely think of your finger as a “little man” that won’t get weak. The advantage of your finger over tools is that it has feelings, so you can feel what’s going on inside the other person’s body. What's going on? You can detect the other person's reaction, and you can easily follow the curve of the rectum. The premise is to protect your fingers at ordinary times, avoid thick calluses or roughness, and be sure to trim your nails beforehand. You can also wear a lubricated latex finger cot to further protect the rectal mucosa. Be sure to proceed step by step, don't progress too quickly, take your time, never be impatient or go too deep. The more careful and gentle your efforts are, the better your results will be and the more your partner will experience the pleasure of anal sex. Don't think that it is so easy and convenient as shown in pornographic movies. Don't warm up or lubricate. If you simply imitate, the other party will definitely suffer, and I'm afraid there will be no "future". The "trauma" of one attempt is too terrible.

At present, although anal sex is not completely banned, the harm it brings is not small. Men and women, don’t risk your health by coveting temporary happiness. This kind of uncivilized sex position should be banned.
