After this period, randomisation into either (1) the anal insert group or (2) the care as usual group. Group 1 will then have an 'accommodation' week in which they can try out two different sizes of the anal insert to see which size they would prefer for the treatment period. The treatment period will consist of 8 weeks In which the (1) anal insert group is expected to use the anal inserts and the (2) care as usual group is asked to continue with their treatment as usual.

The follow-up consists of 4 weeks, after which patients will be asked again to fill out several questionnaires.
