As anonymity has been found to reduce embarrassment, services can leverage this by offering outlets for anonymous questions to be asked freely.[9] The internet also serves as a platform to enable this readily. Blogging allows people to share personal health experiences without the fear of social rejection and access community support,[25] and private browsing modes on search engines regularly ensure users confidentiality.[20] Likewise, for sexual symptoms, a preference for chatbot over doctor consultation has been reported, suggesting a less stressful alternative available.[26]
Schemes have also targeted vicarious embarrassment in providers as well, employing cognitive behavioural therapy techniques to challenge stigmatised beliefs held. Workshops on improving health-worker attitudes towards anal sexuality have involved comprehensive education on physiology, sexual pleasure, and disease prevention. Exposure-based methods required workers to confront their biased emotional and cognitive responses. This was followed by cognitive restructuring, which included exercises that applied the framing effect, with workers being guided to focus on safe pleasure rather than disease to promote acceptance and understanding.[27] In another study, providers were also provided with informational content, in this case, that longer durations of breastfeeding lead to better health outcomes. Afterwards, providers displayed more positive attitudes to weaning at later ages.[28]
