A member asked:
How soon after a csection can you have anal sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Potentially: The anus is an exit not an entrance, and so i discourage my patients from partaking. Besides the risk of infection including std's, you risk damage to the sphincter mechanism that can not be repaired, leaving you with variable incontinence. Not worth the risk! if you insist on having anal sex, i would discuss with your OB gyn doctor before attempting.
