Piles and sex… would you?

Sorry for the TMI but I’m just looking for some advice. Been dating a guy for about 5 weeks now and really want to have sex. He’s suggested going away this weekend and I want to so much BUT…. I’ve got anal piles that I’ve had since my children were born (getting increasingly worse with each pregnancy)
They don’t hugely bother me in terms of pain or discomfort etc but they are very unsightly. I still had sex with my ex husband and he wasn’t bothered by them but we’d been together a long time so were very comfortable.
The NHS only offer banding so I will get them
privately lasered off at some point but it’s very expensive so nothing I can do with any immediacy.
I guess my question is do you think he would be put off? To clarify I don’t want to be doing anal or anything and I don’t like any fingering in that region, which I’m happy to explain to him. It’s just that in certain positions they would probably be visible and possibly with oral. Sorry for TMI!
Would you let it bother you?
Part of me thinks, he knows I’m a nearly 40 year old woman with 3 children, so he can’t expect a perfect body (or bum hole!) but they are unattractive.
I almost wondered to make a joke of it so he knows they’re there so I’m not tensing up if he tries to initiate certain positions they might be visible?
Any advice or reassurance please. I’ve not slept with anyone since my ex husband a feeling nervous!

When I had my consultation, they went through it all and downtime really is minimal. As is the risk of complications. I think having now heard a few ‘real life’ stories, it’s made me more confident in my decision to save up for it and move forward. Now, how to raise the money? Reckon there’s a niche for piles on only fans?! 😂😂

Def a Gofundme 😆 sure you could ask for whip round in the office ;)

The Exroid procedure is only carried out by Exroid themselves, or franchised clinics, so it's doubtful that it would be available from NHS private contractors.

Ahh. Makes sense. Although having had a look its only for internal piles...not external.

What's happening with the man OP? Are you meeting up this weekend?

How’s it going OP? Did it work out with the guy? x
