What is splanchnophilia?

Splanchnophilia is a sexual attraction to internal organs, particularly the gastrointestinal tract. It is a form of paraphilia, which is a condition characterized by intense sexual desires that are unusual or socially unacceptable. Splanchnophilia is a relatively rare condition and not widely understood by the medical community. There is no known cause or cure for this condition, though therapy or medication can sometimes reduce the symptoms or mitigate the impact on a patient's life. The expression of splanchnophilia is often limited to fantasies, but in some cases, it has been reported that it can be manifested in real-life behaviors such as ingesting bodily fluids and feces.
