Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
STDs are not single disease, but comprises of more than 25 diseases.
If you and your girl friend are strictly monogamous so far then there is no question of STD. If she had also not received any blood transfusion or IV Drug abuse, then you need not worry about HIV also. Anal sex between monogamous partners has no risk. Very rarely amoebic infection can be transmitted as a cutaneous infection over your external genitals. It is a rarest possibility. Washing with ordinary toilet soap and water is enough after anal intercourse to clean yourself as some of the antiseptic cleansers would like to produce irritation to genitals.
