Is anal sex painful?

If you rush into anal sex, it may be uncomfortable or even painful, especially for the first time.

There are some things you can do to reduce pain. These include:
>Make sure you and your partner feel relaxed
>start slowly
>Use plenty of waterbased lubrication
>Start with an object like your fingers or a sex toy
>Talk to your partner so you know what works for both of you.
If you feel too uncomfortable or painful, stop immediately. Just because you&39;ve started something doesn&39;t mean you need to continue.
