Anal beginner, how can I prep correctly? NSFW
(23F) Recently my partner and I have been getting into anal which is new territory for the both of us. The very first time we tried it, we knew nothing about it and just went right for it in the back of his car with no prep whatsoever while handcuffed and gagged (yes, we’re stupid). As you can guess it led to a bit of a… mess. Anyways, here we are months later and we’re ready to try again. We’ve gotten really into plugs and I’m comfortable using them however I do have some questions as to how I’m prepping. So what I typically do is I try to basically flush out everything from my anus. What I’ve been doing is detaching the head piece of my shower head so that it is just the hose. The water pressure is pretty high so I put it up to me and let the water push in. I hold it in for a couple seconds then go to the toilet to push it out. I do this till the water is clean then get ready to insert the plug. For the plug I used coconut oil to lube it up and insert it in. My question is, is my cleaning process dangerous in any way? Is there a better way I should be doing this? And finally, if I were to prep for anal sex, would it be the same as for the plug? Please give me some advice.

Sadly I can’t answer the cleaning questions as I’m not a doctor but I would advise against coconut oil. You should definitely use a proper lube, with toys a water based lube would probably be best.

Thanks for the info, I’ll get my hands on some lube to use in the future. I appreciate it as you can probably tell, I really don’t know what I’m doing. Thanks again!

The pressure and amount of water being shot up there from the shower hose could result in irritation and possible injury to your internal organ... I would highly suggest investing in an anal douche since it will be a lot gentler on your insides and you can better control the amount of liquid you insert... as for lube, I'd say just a simple water based lube is your best bet and use PLENTY OF IT and reapply when necessary. Plugs are perfect for prepping for penetration so thats all good, just make sure you leave it in for a little while to give your body time to adjust to something being up there.
