A member asked:

Are there any physical signs or examination to find out if someone has had anal sex even if once ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Ronald Kline answered

No: Anal sex may cause a tear in the anal canal, but that would be about the only sign that might follow anal penetration.

Dr Ali agreed
