I'm curious about using coconut oil or Vaseline for anal sex. Are they safe options for lubricant, or should I be looking for a specific gel or oil that's meant for this purpose? Would love some guidance on what's best to use.

As a doctor, I would recommend avoiding coconut oil or Vaseline as lubricants for anal sex, as they can break down latex condoms and may cause irritation. It's best to use a water-based or silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for sexual activity to ensure comfort and safety.
