Question:
Hello, My wife and I are interested in me performing Analingus on her. We have been married for a little over a year, and were both virgins when we got married. I had hepatitis A about 8 yrs ago, while travelling to India, when I was 14, but she has not had the disease. Otherwise We are also healthy, and neither one of us has ever done drugs or had an serious illness. Also we have never had any surgical procedure performed on us.I have also been vaccinated for Hepatitis B. So I have to worry about contracting any infections from her if I perform Analingus on her? Thank you

Hi,

My first inclination is to say that you are not at any risk of catching any diseases from your wife, given your sexual and medical history. However, one thing you may want to keep in mind is the presence of e. coli bacteria in the anal area. So, I may be incorrect in that statement. Frankly, I am not an MD and my knowledge of this subject is not complete, so I would like to recommend a book for you. There are two books on anal sexual play that are often recommended. One is called Anal Pleasure and Health, by Jack Morin. The other is called The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women, by Tristan Taromino (which has a companion book, The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Men by Bill Brent). I have no doubt that you will be able to find a more definite answer in one of those guides, which are usually available at larger bookstores and are definitely available through amazon.com.

Happy Playing! :)

Blaise
