What did you think a fecal transplant was?
4 comments

I'm embarrassed to admit this, but I always assumed a fecal transplant went in the other door

EDIT: looks like I was right, it can be done that way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fecal_microbiota_transplant#Me...

No embarrassment, I thought the same. Feels like a far more sensible thought than fecal transplant via the mouth, for many reasons. Vindicating edit!
Suppository.
It many times is just someone else’s poop put into your butt
I mean the word transplant implies that it does not go in the mouth. Unless the patient uh... does things a little differently.
