Anal sex…male & female..physically safe or not?
Response Hello, Thank you for posting your question on DrRachael.com. Yes, anal sex is safe if conducted the correct way. The main thing to keep in mind is that if you do not know your partner’s STD or HIV status, you must use a condom with a water- based lubricant because the anus tears easily and you should not want to risk getting an infection. I have an article that I have written on anal sex and I have included the link. The worst part about anal sex is the day after. Expect to be sore, have trouble holding your gas in, and for your anus to feel a little weak. However, it can be a very pleasurable experience. http://www.drrachael.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/Tips.ShowItems/CatId/256/path/ 256.
