Anal sex has been in existence for centuries, and it seems to be making a comeback these days men and women alike are taking enormous pleasure in this sex act and there is nothing wrong with it, as long as you are careful.
It is just important that you understand the risks involved in anal sex, so that you can choose the right course of action for your own individual sex life.
How to keep anal sex safe:
If you are planning to have anal sex, you can keep it safe by making sure that your partner is STD safe. (Sexual Transmitted Disease) You want to know your partner well to reduce your risks of HIV or AIDS. You want to wear protection at any time you have anal sex. Touching a person does not put you at risk of AIDS or HIV, yet when you have anal sex; it does put you at risk, since the swapping of fluids can lead to disease. Syphilis you can get from touching another person who has contracted with this sexual transmitted disease.
When engaging in anal sex use a condom and if you plan on getting into oral anal play then a dental dam is recommended. You may also want to get a vaccination shot to avoid getting Hepatitis.
When entering the rectum area you want to make sure that you have thoroughly lubricated the region. The lubrication will make it easier for both parties. Your partner will not feel the pressure and pain as he/she would if you hadn’t used the lubrication. Moreover, you want to enter the anal slowly. Do not force yourself inside this area, since it could cause tearing. The microscopic tearing occurs at the anal walls, and this can cause serious pain as well as increase the risks of HIV transmission. Many men carry HIV unknowingly and it is far easier for them to transmit the disease through semen than it is for women to transmit it. Use condoms that are well lubricated to avoid friction that could cause a disturbance to the line of the rectum’s canal.
Always use protection to keep it safe when engaging in anal sex, this cannot be stressed enough. Sexually transmitted diseases are a good reason to wear protection, since you want to avoid genital warts, hepatitis, herpes, Chlamydia, syphilis, gonorrhea, HIV, AIDS, etc.
If you use toys during intercourse, wash them thoroughly when done to reduce your risks of disease and infection.
Moreover, the rectum has a bacterial known as “Coli.” This bacterium alone has killed a number of people throughout the world. PUNCT Coli inhibits the anal area and when a male inserts the penis into a female’s vagina after anal sex, it can cause a serious “yeast-like infection,” that could even require surgery.
The walls of the anal are thin. This means that STD is likely to transmit quicker than if you had vaginal sex with a partner infested.
In conclusion, there is no such thing as keep it safe in anal sex. Yet if you intend to engage in this action, use all the necessary precautions to reduce risks and miss injuries.
