Is there a possibility for a girl to get pregnant if a guy cums inside her butt? And what are the affects of anal sex?

No — a woman’s anus is not connected to her reproductive system, so she cannot get pregnant from anal intercourse. However, like unprotected vaginal intercourse, unprotected anal intercourse is high risk for many sexually transmitted infections, including herpes, gonorrhea, HIV, and hepatitis. Using a condom during anal sex can reduce the risk of contracting an infection.

Not all people like anal sex. But it can be perfectly healthy and safe in both the long and short term. Like vaginal intercourse, there is a very small risk of tissue damage over the course of a lifetime.

Besides using condoms, couples who have anal sex should follow a few simple guidelines:

The anus doesn’t usually produce enough lubrication for comfortable penetration, so it’s important to use plenty of lubricant. Only use water-based lubricants — like KY or Astroglide — with latex condoms. Go slowly, stop if anything hurts, and let your partner know how you feel — sex that’s painful or uncomfortable shouldn’t continue. Not everyone likes anal intercourse. So it’s okay if you don’t.
