Can i have sex with hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids are not irritated or affected with vaginal intercourse. However, anal intercourse can irritate and damage hemorrhoids, causing bleeding.

Any type of sex is normal except anal in your condition. Treat hemorrhoids first till they are cured, if you plan to have anal sex. With any sex, practice safe sex.
