Anal intercourse may not result in pregnancy, but the anal tissue is fragile and tears can easily lead to the spread of STIs. NEVER switch from anal sex to vaginal sex (with a penis, hand, or toy) without first taking a break to wash, change a condom, etc. to avoid transferring bacteria from the anus to the genitals - Front to back, not back to front! PREPARATION

GET CLEAN! Have a bowel movement, and be sure to wash thoroughly with soap and warm water around the anus before anal sex. An internal rinse isn’t necessary, but if you’re anxious about hygiene, a small warm water can help you feel more thoroughly clean. You can put down a towel on the bed if you’re worried about the sheets!

LUBE UP! This is the MOST important step. Unlike the vagina, the anus doesn’t produce its own lubrication. Anal sex without lubrication will result in tearing of the fragile tissue of the rectum and be very painful. ALWAYS use lube, and use A LOT. Silicone lubes like Bedroom Kandi’s SLEEK are a great choice for anal play, as they won’t dry out as fast as water-based lubricants. If you’re using toys, try SILK, a hybrid silicone-water lube that won’t damage silicone toys.
