You would like to know whether the hymen would be damaged during anal intercourse.

The hymen will be damaged only when the penis enters into the vagina. The hymen won’t be damaged during oral or anal intercourse. When having an intercourse vaginal or anal, you may consider using protection from unwanted pregnancy and STD (sexual transmitted diseases) by using condoms. However, while having anal intercourse the female can suffer from injuries of the delicate lining of the anus and sigma (part of the colon). These injuries are the perfect door in the body for HIV transmission if no condoms are used. Also the female may suffer from constipation and hemorrhoids if enjoying anal intercourse.

Please keep in mind that I am trying to provide you with medical information here. I am not able to give you medical advice online. Please contact your doctor for further medical information.
