The actual preparation takes place at this point. Consider this to be everything you need to take care of before entering the bedroom (or other area where you plan to engage in anal play).

Because you have choices, spoiler! Undoubtedly, anal sex usually refers to penetrative sex—i.e., sex that enters the anus—and penetrative sex usually necessitates the most preparation. However, anal is a broad field, so being aware of your interests in advance can help you prepare however you need to. Following are some examples of anal sex to be aware of:

Quite self-explanatory—Penis in anus

When you mention anal sex, many people immediately picture a sex.

When it comes to anal sex toys, you have a lot of options. Sure, anal dildos can be used for penetration in a manner similar to a penis, but your options don't stop there. Plugs are another option; they are smaller and intended to remain in place. Anal beads give you as much pleasure taking them out as putting them in. The anal toy equivalent of a G-spot vibrator or dildo, prostate toys are specially shaped objects made to massage the prostate.

Digital penetration: It's a good idea to experiment with anal play with your fingers, especially for beginners who might be self-conscious about their size. A little bit of digital penetration will probably be required as you "work up" to exploring penetration with a penis or a toy, it's also important to note. This means that you should always keep your hands clean, file your nails so that there are no sharp edges, and keep them fairly short (unless you're a nail professional).

Oral: Also referred to as anilingus, rimming, tossing salad, or any other oral-anal euphemism you prefer. Oral sex on the same site as poop might make you queasy if you're not already a fan, but you shouldn't be concerned. Anilingus is typically hygienic if the receiver has had a normal, consistent bowel movement. On the poop of it all, though, more later.

Listen, while using lube is generally advised during sexual experiences, penetrative anal play is the exception, according to Joseph Frankhouse, M.D., medical director of colorectal surgery at Legacy Health in Oregon. This is so because the anus lacks natural lubrication while the vagina does. Without enough lubrication, anal penetration can tear the tissue in your anus.

In addition to being painful, that increases your risk of contracting STDs like gonorrhea and HIV, according to board-certified ob-gyn Jacques Moritz, M.D. This is because these tears leave holes in the skin that could potentially let pathogens that cause infections in.

You essentially have three choices for lubricant: water-based, silicone-based, and oil-based. Lubricants with an oil or silicone base are thicker and last longer, making them ideal for anal play. But if you're using a condom, avoid oil-based lubes (like coconut oil), as they can damage condoms and reduce their effectiveness.

Avoid silicone-based lubes if you're incorporating silicone anal toys into the mix because these lubes erode silicone toys. But don't worry, there are other toy materials available that work just fine if you want to use silicone-based lube and toys, such as glass or metal.

In light of all of this, you should typically stick with water-based lube if you're using condoms, silicone toys, or anal play. Water-based lube can also be used perfectly well; you may just need to reapply more frequently.

Say it again: Not all toys are narcotic-safe! The most crucial guideline for toys for anal play is to make sure they have flared bases so they won't get lost inside of you. Because it is possible to get a toy stuck in your butt, and this happens more frequently than you might think, resulting in visits to the emergency room.

In addition, since silicone is nonporous and hypoallergenic, sex educator Jill McDevitt, Ph.D., suggests toys made of this material because they are simple to clean. Toys that come in progressively larger sizes can be useful for beginners because they allow you to "start small and then use larger ones as you wish," according to Dr. McDevitt. If you're a beginner and want to get a glass or metal toy, you might want to err on the side of caution and get something smaller because these materials can be heavy and make you feel full even without extra size.

At least, in the majority of cases. You should use condoms (or dental dams for oral sex) during anal sex to lower the risk of STIs and HIV, unless you and your partner(s) are sexually monogamous and have all recently been tested. According to OB-GYN Natasha Chinn, M.D., of New Jersey, SELF. Yes, you can acquire STIs through your butt.

Using condoms is crucial if you're switching from anal to vaginal penetration, even if you're in a fluid-bonded relationship. You run the risk of spreading bacteria from your anus to your vagina or urethra if you don't. The gastrointestinal (GI) bacteria, like E. coli, that your vagina and related parts are not accustomed to living with, are found in your anus. According to the Mayo Clinic, when this bacteria enters your vagina, it can lead to vaginal infections like bacterial vaginosis, which can cause burning when urinating, vaginal itching, a "fishy" vaginal odor, and gray, white, or green vaginal discharge. Additionally, it can get into your urethra and cause a urinary tract infection there (UTI). The Mayo Clinic states that this can result in symptoms like a constant need to urinate, followed by a burning sensation, cloudy urine, and pelvic pain.

In conclusion? Before putting anything into your vagina, clean it off and/or roll on a fresh condom if you have inserted anything into your anus.

Worth noting: Using a condom may make you feel more comfortable if mess is a concern, even if you and your partner aren't concerned about STIs or intend to alternate between anal and vaginal penetration. Talking of...

Questions about poop always come up when we discuss anal sex, so it can be useful to be aware of what to anticipate beforehand. Let's first go over what exactly occurs inside your body when you poop. Your stomach is where food is first broken down. After that, it moves through your small intestine, where it is further digested. According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, your large intestine, a long tube also known as the colon, is where your body stores the remaining food waste—that is, poop.

The rectum, an eight-inch chamber that connects the colon to the anus, is where the stool goes when there is a lot of waste in your colon that needs to be passed. Your rectum stores the stool until you voluntarily contract it to force the stool out after your brain alerts you that you need to use the restroom soon.

Anal sex occurs in your rectum during anal play, which is not a storage area for poop unless a bowel movement is about to occur. According to Dr. Moritz, the likelihood of you actually pooping on your partner in the middle of an act is extremely low. A lot of feces probably won't surprise you mid-anal if you've just had a bowel movement and don't have any medical conditions like ulcerative colitis that make pooping a little less predictable.

Unfortunately, there is a small catch—important for managing expectations—here. Your body should eliminate all the stool in your rectum when you poop, but occasionally some feces may remain. Even though you probably won't pee on your partner, Dr. Chinn advises being aware that they might have been exposed to some visible or invisible fecal matter.

So, there's no need for anyone to freak out. Washing it off with soap and water (or changing the condom), washing your hands, and carrying on with your life—whether or not that involves returning to anal sex—are all that are required. But before you begin, it's unquestionably something that all parties should be aware of.

One more thing worth mentioning: If you or your partner has a GI problem, there are a few additional precautions and things to keep in mind about anal sex. Check out this article on the subject for more details.

Don't get us wrong: Cleaning the area with water and a soft washcloth to make it as spotless as possible before you dive in can be all it takes to get your bum ready for anal sex. But it's also fine if some people choose to go the extra mile and perform an enema.

An enema involves injecting water or saline into the rectum to break down any stool that is lodged there and facilitate bowel movement. Some people advise performing an enema before anal to prevent any feces from showing up in the bedroom because it's pretty convenient to just pick one up at your neighborhood drugstore or online. Popular alternatives include fleet enemas ($8, Amazon), which are also a major factor in the widespread laughter over Twitter's new Fleet feature.

Again, an enema is not always necessary. As we've just established, there is almost no chance that you'll poop on your partner in the middle of an act. But according to Dr. Frankhouse, performing an enema typically has no negative effects as long as you don't do it frequently enough to irritate your rectum. He advises doing them just occasionally and always adhering to the directions. When performing an enema, if your butt starts to feel irritated, you should stop. You can focus on maintaining good external anal hygiene aside from that.

Whether you're an expert at anal sex or a complete novice, it's not something you can just dive into. It might be worthwhile to do some solo exploring first, though, if you're brand-new to anal and intend to do it with a partner. This could entail planning some anal into your subsequent masturbation session, whether it be through finger or sex toy stimulation.

Of course, this step is entirely optional, but it's a good rule to remember. According to sex educator Dr. McDevitt, "I always recommend people try most things on their own before a partner." You learn what you like, want, don't like, and don't want as well as how to feel comfortable and confident.

When anal

In fact, a significant portion of anal sex preparation takes place during actual sex. In addition, it might be beneficial to review these advice in advance so you can make the most of your experience.

You should set aside some time for foreplay before anal if you're exploring anal with a partner, just like you would for any other kind of penetration. This will allow your body to unwind. A muscle known as the anal sphincter works with your rectum to keep waste inside. As a result, anal penetration may initially be somewhat difficult, according to Dr. Moritz.

Begin by asking your partner to massage you or doing something else you know will help you relax. The anal sphincter needs some time to relax, according to Dr. Frankhouse.

Then, when you're cool, at ease, and prepared to begin exploring anal play, you or your partner can massage the outside of your anus with a finger or sex toy. Before any sort of penetration takes place, this can help you become accustomed to the sensation. Dr. Chinn advises that once you start to enjoy yourself, you can experiment with gradually inserting a finger or sex toy into your anus based on how that feels while using plenty of lube, of course.

All things considered, Dr. McDevitt notes that when we discuss "working up" to anal, we only mean taking the necessary precautions to ensure you're ready for penetration if you want it—it doesn't imply that anal penetration must be the end goal. She asserts that "anal play" need not entail anal penetration. You don't have to "work up to" that if you don't want to, but it can certainly include that. Instead, use a finger, tongue, or pointed vibrator to stimulate the area around the anal opening.

There are many numbing creams on the market that contain anesthetics like benzocaine. According to Dr. Chinn, this does not imply that you should use them for anal. There is a reason why your nerve endings are sensitive. According to Dr. Chinn, they signal your brain when you are in pain so you can protect yourself from suffering a serious injury. Numbing creams may make anal penetration feel less difficult, but they have no real physical effect. You or your partner may be unknowingly pushing your body past its comfort level by numbing your anus.

Instead, simply proceed cautiously and keep in touch with your partner. You shouldn't have to numb yourself in order to enjoy anal play because it can be a ton of fun.

Dr. Chinn asserts that being on top may make first-time anal sex a little bit easier, despite the fact that there is no one-size-fits-all manual for anal sex positions. This gives the user more control over the penetration's speed and depth. In addition, clitoral stimulation is an option if that's more your style. sextubearea.com
