Is it common to bleed slightly after being fucked?

January 21, 2008
I don't get to have anal sex very often, but when I do I usually have some bleeding the next day. Am I not using the right lube? Mostly have used a water based lube. The fucking feels great while it is happing. It is the day after that is the problem. Could this be a hemorrhoid issue, besides this the blood my hole feels sloppy (don't know how else to put it) not loose.—Anonymous
Some traces of blood after anal sex are normal (due to damage to blood vessels), but the time delay you are experiencing is a bit less common. You may have a bleeding hemorrhoid, which would certainly explain your troubles. Give your doc a call and set up an appointment for an examination. If you're not out to your doc about being gay, you can mention you have found traces of blood in your underwear. He'll know to take a look inside you.

Alternately, you may want to try a few new things in the anal sex department. For example, try a new lubricant. One that doesn't have nonoxynol-9 in it. I like Forplay, and believe it's the best on the market for anal sex. Other guys have different preferences. Ask around and see what your friends suggest. Also, try being fucked in different positions. Doc Goldstone suggests lying on your stomach while you are fucked, saying that other positions can promote more swelling and bleeding. I'd say experiment around though and see if you can find a good one for you. And be sure to talk to your doc!—Aaron Lawrence
