    Goodness . . . I feel scared having people like holyvarny around. I don't know why people feel a need to put their own personal feelings and opinions into answers that should be based on facts.

    Here are the facts:

    Anal sex does have inherent risks, but then again, all sex has some risk, I think. The tissues that line the anus and rectum are very delicate, very thin, and quite sensitive (much more so than vaginal tissue, which can, quite honestly, take a lot of abuse before anything bad happens), which may lead to small tears. They are usually nothing to worry about, but they are there, and because feces do travel that route, there is always a chance of infection in one of the small, miniscule tears. Sometimes such tears may develop into fissures, which turn into cracks, and can become infected, with the possibility of gradually extending out through the wall of the bowels and forming a channel across, through and into a nearby organ. That's called a "fistula", and it would allow feces to flow from the rectum into the vagina and out (not a good thing). This, of course, is the possible consquence they talk about for women who practice anal sex, since men who practice receptive anal sex do not have such a problem.

    But at the same time, these are worst-case scenarios. The majority of people experience nothing more than pleasure from anal sex, even if they practice it often.

    Don't believe the myths that anal sex causes hemorrhoids or that it will stretch out your anus and leave you incontinent- those aren't true. Unless you're taking a very large object (like the size of a fist or arm) into the anus every day for ten years, you'll be absolutely fine- the rectum is a muscle that shrinks back to its normal size after anal sex. Believe me, it's resilient- it can take a heck of a lot without any ill effects.

    Anal sex can be very pleasurable for both sexes, and yes, it has potential dangers, but nothing about it is inherently unhealthy. Many women enjoy it and suffer no ill effects. If you're going to do it, go very, very slow, make sure you practice safe sex (it's easier to get STD's with anal sex), use tons and tons and tons of a good-quality lube made specifically for anal sex, and build up to the real thing (I suggest starting with fingers or small toys). Get very aroused or have a few orgasms before you start so that you're relaxed. Try bearing down like you're having a bowel movement when being entered; for some reason, it helps (alternatively, you can try squeezing your butt closed as tight as possible for thirty seconds and then have pushed in- it takes a minute for you to tighten back up). Don't use lubes that have numbing agents in them (like Anal-Eze)- if something goes wrong, you won't know what's happening, and pain is, after all, your body telling you that something's wrong. Don't give up on anal sex if you don't like it the first time- it takes a few tries before it becomes mind-blowingly pleasurable. Don't do it if you don't want to (don't be pressured by anyone if you feel uncomfortable). Remember that first-time anal sex can be quite uncomfortable, but it shouldn't be painful- sex should never be painful. Do lots of research and read up on the issue beforehand, and share this information with your partner. Make sure he/she knows what's going down when you decide to do anal sex. And remember to have fun- that's what sex and experimentation is all about!

    Hope that helps.

    She could have internal haemorrhoids or even warts, this can cause anal bleeding. When we get older our tissues 'dry up' and cells get older so they don't secrete as much. The bowel is filled with mucous most of the time (to aid the passage of poo), but with anal sex u need to use lots of water- based lubrication (not vaseline as it harbours bacteria). The Dr can do a quick check with a proctoscope to have a look to see what is going on, but I would hold off with the anal sex 4 now, as the bleeding won't get better. Maybe she was too dry? Also a rectal ultrasound can be done to check for any abnormalities. Make sure she tells her Dr that she engages in anal sex. With any prolonged bleeding, put pads/towels whatever u have at hand, and get her to lie on a pillow with her bottom up (so the blood doesn't flow downward). Ice wrapped in a teatowel will help constrict blood vessels and make sure she doesn't take Ibuprofen (as it causes internal bleeding in the body) - unless she has been taking too many anti-inflammatories? Hope she feels better soon.

    Lot of people secretly love anal sex even though they deny it in the public. It is another great turn on factor for many people and that is true when considering all the nerve endings in the opening of the anus.

    Some people specially females does not like it as it is some sort of a an intimidation. But once you have done that the correct way it can be very delightful also.

    If you use a condom there are no problems at all. You can use some lubrificants (but do notice that vaseline may damage condom) to avoid your girl experiencing pain... and sharing only pleasure.

    If you don't use a condom, both male and female have little probability to accidentally share some bacteria, infections or viruses, while doing anal sex... it depends from the health status of both of you. If you want to do anal sex without condom, you must be sure enough both of you partners haven't any serious health problem. If you are not sure enough, DO USE condom.

    Do notice that anal sex without condom is even more dangerous, than vaginal sex, to get infected by HIV and other lethal viruses... better is that you and your partner should have a medical check-up, one day or another, if you had some adventurous sex life in the past. You don't have to be shy or fear your parther reaction or argue... you are both adult people.

    Sex is more pleasure when you are absolutely sure that you are both in good health. Many people think that having a medical check-up on venereal diseases is unuseful and embarrassing... they will experience the consequences.

    I would use a condom if I were you for more than just health reasons (which are totally valid). I've gone bareback 3x in my life and every time I've ended up with horrible cramps for days afterwards, even if I've tried to get as much semen out as possible right away. Never had a problem using a condom (as long as you do it right- nice and slow to start, lots of lube, stretch slowly beforehand).

    Hemorrhoids are associated with constipation and straining at bowel movements. How to get rid of hemorrhoids https://tr.im/iWboZ

    Pregnancy is also associated with hemorrhoids. These conditions lead to increased pressure within the hemorrhoidal veins that causes them to swell. Other conditions, for example chronic liver disease, may also cause increased venous pressure and may be associated with hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are very common and are estimated to occur in up to one-half of the population by age 50.
