Tips on Using Anal Sex Toys

Anal sex toys are becoming increasing used and popular. The Anus contains very sensitive nerve endings which increases stimulation and sensation.

If you are a newcomer to using anal sex toys then it’s important to be as relaxed as possible, and to use plenty of special anal lubrication. The rectum doesn’t really produce any natural lubrication so it’s best to ‘lube-up’ yourself. Never use petroleum or silicone based lubrication with anal sex toys as they are likely to cause irritation.

It’s also important to choose / use an anal sex toy with a flared base (most anal toys are designed in this way anyway), as you don’t want to be losing a toy up your anus!

Before inserting the toy, you may want to use your fingers to massage the canal to relax and prime the muscles around and inside the anus. For those of you who are inexperienced with anal play, start small. The more confident you become, the larger the toys you can try. However do take extreme caution, and use some common sense when inserting larger toys into your anus.

Anal beads are also another good way for the anally-inexperienced to start off with anal sex toys. Anal beads are balls threaded on a piece of string, and can be made from plastic, rubber, silicone, metal or jelly. They can even be graduated which means that they increase in size the further along the string they go.

Using the beads is similar to an anal vibrator or dildo in so much as you should remember to lube up using specialist water-based lubrication. Insert the beads into the anus, ensuring the muscles are properly relaxed. Again, it’s a good idea to use fingers to massage the anal canal first. Insert the beads one at a time and once you have all the beads in place. Once the beads are inside you can experiment with a number of actions. Masturbating whilst the beads are inside the anus, then pulling them out slowly when orgasm is reached is a very popular technique. Simply inserting the beads and then removing them is popular too. This stimulates those sensitive nerve endings in the anal canal and can induce orgasm if repeated.
