What is an Anal Relaxant?
As the name suggests, these products are designed specifically to aid your sphincter muscles to relax your body naturally and improve comfort. These can come in the form of creams, sprays, or lubes. The goal of an anal relaxant is to reduce discomfort or pain during anal intercourse.
Common Active Anal Relaxing Ingredients
- Benzocaine: An FDA-approved local anesthetic that numbs the area it’s applied to. It’s often used in over-the-counter products for tooth pain, sore throats, and other discomforts. It is often used to lightly numb the area and relax the sphincter muscles.
- Lidocaine: Another local anesthetic similar to benzocaine but slightly stronger and longer-lasting.
- Natural Extracts: Some products use natural ingredients like jojoba extract or clove oil to create a relaxing effect.
Before using an anal relaxant, it’s essential to:
- Use with Care: Remember that if you numb an area, you might not feel if something is causing damage. Always go slow and communicate with your partner.
- Test for Allergies: Before applying any product to sensitive areas, test it on a less sensitive part of your body (like the inside of your forearm) to ensure you don’t have an allergic reaction.
- Consult a Healthcare Professional: If you’re unsure about using a product or if you experience persistent pain or discomfort, consult with a healthcare professional for guidance and advice.

Tips to Relax Before Anal Sex
Aside from using an anal relaxant, there are many ways to prepare mentally and physically before engaging in anal sex. Here are some tips to help you relax before anal sex:
- Communicate with your partner: Open and honest communication is crucial when it comes to any sexual activity. Discuss your desires, boundaries, and concerns with your partner to ensure you feel comfortable and safe, especially for new sexual experiences like anal play.
- Use plenty of lubrication: The anus does not naturally lubricate like the mouth or vagina. Therefore, a high-quality, lubricant is essential to reduce friction and discomfort. Don’t be affraid to apply generous lube in and around the anus for smoother entry. You can even inject lube with a lube shooter.
- Try relaxation exercises: Take some time to relax your mind and body. You can practice deep breathing, meditation, or even take a warm bath or shower to help you unwind and reduce tension.
- Use gentle touch and foreplay: Engage in sensual activities like kissing, caressing, and light massaging to relax your body. This can help make the experience more enjoyable.
- Start small and go slowly: If you’re new to anal play, start slowly and use smaller objects like toys or fingers before attempting larger ones. Gradual progression can help your body adapt and reduce discomfort.
- Use anal toys for practice: Anal training kits, which include progressively larger toys, can help you get accustomed to anal penetration at your own pace. This can be especially helpful for beginners.
- Choose a comfortable position: Experiment with different positions to find the one that is most comfortable for you. Try lying on your back or side with their knees bent to relax your entire body.
- Relax your sphincter muscles: The key to comfortable anal penetration is to relax the anal sphincter. You can do this by taking deep breaths, exhaling slowly, and consciously relaxing your pelvic floor muscles, like you are having a bowel movement to help the muscles open up.
- Practive safe anal sex: Always use condoms during anal sex to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). If using toys, ensure they are clean and have a flared base to prevent them from getting stuck inside.
- Respect your boundaries: If at any point you experience pain or discomfort that doesn’t improve with time or additional lubrication, it’s essential to stop and communicate with your partner. Consent should be ongoing and enthusiastic.
Remember that anal sex should always be consensual and enjoyable for all parties involved. Taking your time, communicating openly, and prioritizing comfort and safety are key to a positive experience.
