What do colorectal specialists think about female participation in anal intercourse? An online survey of UK coloproctologists
Experts think participation in AI can cause fissures, IAS damage and FI in women. They are sceptical about the protective value of lubrication and relaxation. Clinical conversations lag behind experts' opinions on the importance and possible consequences of female AI. Concern over patients' feelings are barriers to enquiry. Colorectal specialists think there should be more public health information about female AI.
