Yes: First, you are young to have had a colonoscopy so it would be helpful to know why as it may be related. Second, in terms of intimacy does this mean anal receptive intercourse because that will not allow the hemorrhoids to settle down and would need to cease for a while. Third, sometimes swelling and protrusion at rectum is not hemorrhoids and could be the lining of the rectum called mucosa.
