i'm a guy and i have started doing anal pleasuring a while ago, but then i read something online about prolapses for no reason probably do to chain-clicking stuff on wikipedia and i found that anal prolapses may be caused by extensive anal "pleasuring" so i got really worried that i may had a prolapse.
One time, i was taking a number2 and i was scared that maybe if i pushed i had a prolapse, so i tried touching the area around my anus as i pushed a bit, and i felt these small lips around it but when i stop pushing they disappear. Is that normal or do i have a prolapse? i'm worried :S
Prolapses are not subtle. If you've had one, you would know without having to touch anything. Prolapses are caused by long-term, extensive stretching of the anus. Your average anal pleasuring - that is, using objects not much larger than a large penis - will not cause risk of prolapse. If you plan on using horse-sized toys, you're much more likely, but even then, it isn't certain.
And that leads me to another point. Anal prolapses, by themselves, are not really an issue. In inch or so of your rectum may hang out for just a few seconds, but after a flex of your anal/rectal muscles, similar to the "holding it in" flex, it'll vanish inside your body again.
In other words, don't be so scared of the possibility of a prolapse that it keeps you doing what you like to pleasure yourself.
Thank you so much! :D you were extremely helpful and enlightening :D
