I just wanted to give a recommendation for WYPE gel which was a tremendous help to me when I was going through treatment. You dispense a little onto the toilet paper before wiping after having a poo, and it helps lift and remove what’s there so that you don’t have wipe as many times, in other words reducing the risk of chafing from the paper and repeated wiping. It’s gentle, natural and soothing too. I discovered it just before I started my radiotherapy in April 2022, and it was brilliant. I have a regular size dispense for at home, and have a travel size one for my handbag. I continued using it after treatment and still use it to this day. The container is metal so it can be recycled, and you can buy refills so you can keep using the pump. WYPE GEL
