    Question

    I have had a "friend with benefits" relationship with a man for the past 6 months and just tonight when we had sex he went from vagina to anus...more then once I think. I'm worried about getting an infection now and know that there is a chance, is there anything I can do? or do I just have to wait it out and see if anything abnormal happens to see if I'm okay?

    Answer

    The risk of infection, unless he changed condoms between,is very high, and you will want to have an exam and tell the doctor what happened so she knows what to test for. On a larger issue, this man does not sound very concerned about your health or preferences. Not asking if that behavior is OK is rude and disrespectful.
