Is Anal Sex Safe After A Loop Ileostomy?

Hi, I have a loop ileostomy since Sept 13, the reversal will be done as soon as I m off blood thinners for a pulmonary embolism. About 2 months ago the Catscan showed that the two preforations that I had in my colon are closed. My question is, is it ok to have anal sex? Please advise & thank you for your time.

Indeed, anal sex would be related to the "sex position" to protect the ileostomy bag. Thus look into the convenience and risk of complications of the ileostomy bag.
