    First time having anal sex.

    I recently had anal sex for the first time. It was good, hardly a moment of uncomfort!
    Although, in the following days I had a great increase in discharge (creamy white) and I also have had to pee quite a bit (not sure if that is related). Is this normal?? I'm also a little worried because we used no protection.. Any knowledge in this area would be much welcomed and appreciated!! Thankyou.

    It could be possible that you got an infection because you did not use protection. The bacteria from the anus can get in contact with the vagina and urethra and cause UTI's. Do you have a burning sensation with the frequent urination? I am not sure about the discharge, does it smell abnormal? It's usually a good idea to use a condom for anal because of the bacteria risk, and it also helps protect the guy from UTI's too. Then remove the condom if you want to go back to the vagina. If you don't use a condom, it's best to not go from the anus to the vagina. Vagina to anus is okay though.

    Is your worry from lack of protection that you have an infection?? or that you may have contracted an STD?

      Once you leave the vagina for anal...don't return...as nasty things can happen.

      As was stated above, there are all sorts of bad bacteria in the rectum that can really mess with the delicate balance of the vagina.

      So once you're out, stay out (at least for the rest of that session).

        You should always use protection when having anal sex. You both could get an infection due to the bacteria in the anus.
