Hello,

If you are both in a monogamous relationship and there is no risk for sexually transmitted infections, then anal penetration is probably okay. However, it has the risk of causing decreased tone of the anal sphincter.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regard,

Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal
