So sex ed was really bad where I'm from and I've had to figure a lot of shit out by trial and error. I've been enjoying experimenting with anal for a while now but I've reached a point where, after a longer session with one of my larger toys, there's sometimes a little blood. Never like flowing blood just when I pass the excess lube afterwards it's comes out pink. This has happened a few times but I don't feel any lasting effects. My bowel movements afterward have been fine. Should I be worried about this? Is any blood too much or am I fine?

    More (gradual) stretching, going more gently especially during warmup, using more lube, switching to a better lube, reapplying lube if it's waterbased (essentially it should be waterbasedif you're using most toys) and you haven't reapplied for a while - any of these might be a solution.

    There's nothing much to worry about and it's not uncommon. It's likely just because of a very minor skin tear.

    As the person below mentioned, it could be a haemorrhoid. You can have a small painless one that are internal that you wouldn't be able to notice without a doctor inspecting it. Again, nothing much to worry about and not uncommon.

        Swiss Navy (silicone based, so no go with most toys, but I was able to take a girthy 10" ez) is good in my experience. And good clean love lube(green bottle), and I've been using Vaseline soothing hydration when I ran out. It doesn't explicitly say I shouldn't, but it's probably not going to be a long term use kinda thing. But it glides weeeelllll

          Swiss Navy water-based gel is pretty good, too. So is Slippery Stuff water-based gel. Both come in gigantic 32 ounce pump sizes that should last at least one or two sessions.

            Damn... For real? Most I've had to work with at one time is those 10 oz Astro glide bottles. 16oz per session sounds like hyperbole, but I'm pretty tame I guess.
