Guide: Anal sex for beginners
Anal sex can be an exciting and intimate experience for couples who want to explore their sexuality. But it can also be a scary and overwhelming experience, especially for beginners. Here's a guide to help couples explore anal sex in a safe and comfortable way.
1. Talk openly about it
Before you start exploring anal sex, it's important to talk openly and honestly about it. This can be a sensitive conversation, but it can help create clarity and openness about your desires and boundaries. Discuss what you each want to try and how you can make sure you both feel safe and comfortable.
2. Hygiene and cleaning
An anal douche can help clean the rectum and reduce the risk of feeling dirty during anal sex. It is by no means a requirement to rinse before, but it can help to feel more secure and minimize the risk of surprises.
Before using an Anal Douche, make sure to empty the bowel first and use warm water to rinse the area. Fill the anal douche with warm water and slowly squirt it up the rectum. Hold the water for a few seconds and then flush the water down the toilet. Repeat this until the water comes out clean. Start possibly with a small amount of water and gradually increase the amount. If the water doesn't run clear after 5-6 times, maybe it's just not the day to try anal sex.
2. Use lots of lube
Lube is essential when it comes to anal sex. The anus does not have natural lubrication like the vagina, so it is important to use plenty of lubricant to avoid discomfort and damage. Choose a water-based lubricant as it is easy to use and will not damage the condom if you choose to use one. We recommend this natural lubricant . Add any lubricant several times during the act.
3. Start slowly
Anal sex can take time and patience. Start slowly with small fingers, vibrators or small anal plugs until you feel more comfortable and confident with the sensation. Gradually increase the size of the sex toy or penis when you are ready. Proceed carefully and feel for it.
4. Listen to your body
It is important to listen to your body and stop if you experience discomfort or pain during anal sex. Do not continue if you feel that something is wrong or uncomfortable.
If you don't succeed in the first attempt, you can always try again another day. Talk to your partner about what was good and why it was not good. Maybe you went too fast. Only use sex toys and positions that are comfortable and can help avoid pain and discomfort.
5. Aftercare and cleaning
After anal sex, it is important to take care of your body and clean the sex toy properly. Wash thoroughly after use with warm water and soap, and use an antibacterial sex toy cleaner.
