Let's get straight to the point (pun intended) and talk about a topic that many people secretly worry about: pooping during anal sex . You've probably heard of horror stories where something went wrong during the act, and you might be wondering what the chances are of this happening to you. Don't worry, I'm not only going to reassure (or warn) you, but also give you some tips to avoid any uncomfortable situations. So let's brush up on our knowledge and get ready for a journey through the backside!

How does our digestive system work?

First of all, we need to understand how our digestive system works. Food is digested in our stomach and intestines, producing waste products that ultimately leave our body as feces. The last part of the large intestine, also known as the rectum, acts as a kind of storage place for feces before it leaves our body through the anus.

During anal sex, pressure can be exerted on the rectum and therefore feces can potentially be released. However, this does not automatically mean that everyone who practices anal sex will have to deal with this.

The chance of poop during anal sex depends on several factors, such as:

1. Preparation:

   It is important to take enough time for good hygiene before anal sex. This may include a shower or the use of an anal shower . By properly cleaning the rectum, you reduce the chance of unwanted surprises.
   
   
   

2. Power supply:

   What you eat affects your digestion and therefore also your stool. To reduce the chance of poop during anal sex, make sure your meals are easy to digest and contain enough fiber. Fiber-rich foods help with good bowel movements and can ensure that there is less stool in the rectum.
   
   
   

3. Relaxation:

   Anal sex requires relaxation of the sphincter around the anus. If you are tense, this can lead to cramping muscles and increases the chance of unintentional defecation. So create a relaxed atmosphere and take the time to warm each other up before proceeding with anal penetration. To relax better, it can help to use a vibrating/heating anal toy in advance. The vibrations or heat help the sphincter muscles to relax better.
   
   
   

4. Lubricant:

   Good lubrication is essential during anal sex to reduce friction and prevent any damage to the tissue. Using enough lubricant can help everything run more smoothly and also minimize the risk of accidents.

A common fear is that feces may be released during anal sex. So how do you reduce the chance of this happening?

Do not worry! With the right preparation and knowledge, you can minimize the chance of this awkward moment. Here are some tips and tricks to ensure that you and your partner feel comfortable during anal sex.

2. Diet plays a role

   What we put into our bodies affects what comes out, right? The same applies to defecation during anal sex. If you want to reduce the chance of something unwanted happening, it's important to pay attention to your diet.
   
   Try to avoid foods that stimulate bowel movements, such as fatty foods, spicy foods, coffee and alcohol. Also avoid foods or spices that can cause gas.

   Relaxation is very important during anal sex. If you or your partner are tense, this can lead to discomfort and possibly the release of stool.

4. Choose the right position

   Choosing the right position can make a world of difference when it comes to anal sex without unwanted surprises. Some positions can reduce pressure on the rectum, reducing the chance of bowel movements.
   
   For example, try the side spoon position or have your partner lean back while you sit on top. Experiment together and find what feels comfortable for both of you.
   
   

5. Limited penetration

   The deeper and faster your partner penetrates your anus, the greater the chance that some feces will come out. So by all means do it carefully and not too deeply , then it is quite possible that the lovemaking will proceed smoothly.
   
   

6. Go to the toilet beforehand

   To reduce the chance of defecation, it is smart to: to the toilet beforehand to go. The less there is in your intestines, the less likely it is that feces will come with it. Then rinse the rectum with an anal shower, for example.
   
   

7. Be prepared

   Sometimes things can turn out differently than planned, no matter how well prepared you are. It therefore does not hurt to take some extra measures in case feces are released during anal sex.
   
   For example, place a towel or some old sheets on the bed to catch any accidents. And make sure you always have some wet wipes or tissues within reach for quick and discreet cleaning.

4. Be flexible: Accept that things sometimes turn out differently

   Sex isn't a perfectly scripted movie - it's purely human and sometimes unpredictable. If some stool does come out, try to remain calm and discuss with your partner how you want to proceed.
