The first thing to do before engaging in anal sex is to prepare yourself both physically and mentally. This is to make sure that your anal sex experience is both pleasurable and memorable. Here is what you can do to prepare yourself for your first anal sex.

DOUCHING

Douching is not necessarily compulsory, but it can ensure that your rectum is as empty as possible. This process is the act of flushing out the rectum with water, it helps increase the chances of a mess free intercourse,

To douche, simply fill a small bulb with warm water, insert the tip of the bulb into your anus and squeeze it gently to allow the water enter. Let the water rest in your rectum for a few seconds, and then pass it out into the toilet. Make sure to repeat the process until the water turns clear.

If you have the time to prepare, douche at least 30 minutes prior to the time of intercourse to ensure there is no leftover water since your rectum has several twists, turns and folds the water must run through.

Note, this process is not entirely necessary.

DILATING

Dilating helps alert your body of what’s to come, the sphincter (muscle in the anal opening) is used to being closed most of the time. It is advisable to dilate so that you can warm up and relax the sphincter muscle.

To dilate, apply a generous amount of lube to your hole as well as your DILATOR or  ANAL PLUG of a manageable size and insert it into your anus for roughly five seconds.

Remove it and gently repeat the process till you feel you are free and relaxed enough. Another viable option is to insert and wear the toy around for a while.

Although this may not exercise your sphincter the same way that active play with a toy does.

How to enjoy anal sex

Now that you have gotten yourself ready for anal sex, you cannot just shove a penis into your anus and expect it to be all good. There are a few important things you should take note of.

Foreplay is not just important but it is also necessary. You need to be as relaxed as possible for your sphincter to let a penis in. It is vital to have good amount of stimulation before anal sex.

You can also tip it off by stimulating the vagina and inserting a finger or ANAL PLUG into the anus.

The anus does not naturally lubricate itself so you need a lubricant. Always use a water based LUBRICANT and apply it enough so that the anus is not injured.

Remember to insert the penis slowly until you are comfortable enough before increasing pace. Conversation between partners is vital so that the giving partner and receiving partner are both on thesame page.
