Saira admitted she was overwhelmed by the support, tweeting after the show: 'Wow ladies - so many of you out there feel like me I'm not alone. Thank you for all your lovely lovely messages today regarding the sex topic - I really appreciate it!! Xx'

'I like to share so it can help others and make people feel better that they are not the only ones!' Saira replied.
Saira married internet company boss Steve, from Essex, in 2005 after they met through work in 2002.
In 2008 the couple, who now live in Oxford, welcomed their baby boy, Zachariah via IVF. Saira suffers with endometriosis and had to undergo fertility treatment to get pregnant with her son.
When a second IVF attempt failed, the couple began the lengthy adoption process in the UK before turning to adoption abroad.
The Apprentice star and Steve adopted a baby girl, Amara, now five, from the Edhi Orphanage in Karachi, Pakistan.

Candid chats: The Loose Women stars also dished the dirt about whether or not they did the deed on their wedding nights
'We adopted overseas because we were advised there needed to be a two-year gap between Zac and the child we were going to adopt,' she explained recently to New Day.
'We were told it wouldn’t be possible to get a child in the time frame we were looking at in Britain so we went to Pakistan.'
Saira says that Amara gets on famously with her older brother Zac bar the odd, perfectly healthy sibling argument.
On social media, the star regularly celebrates her 'different' family, with a family shot posted in January accompanied by the post: 'My family is made up of a white Essex dude, an adopted Pakistani daughter, a mixed-race son and me - #embracedifference'

Opening up: Ruth Langsford also discussed her 2010 wedding to long-term partner Eamonn Holmes
On Wednesday's show, the Loose Women stars also dished the dirt about whether or not they did the deed on their wedding nights.
'I did it three times. I remember it well as it’s the last time we did it', Coleen joked. 'Twice at night and first thing in the morning.'
Recalling her 2010 nuptials with long-term partner and co-presenter Eamonn Holmes, Ruth Langsford joked, 'I thought, I really ought to, it’s my wedding night. It wasn't our finest one.'
When Coleen quizzed her, 'Was it with Eamonn?', Ruth was horrified, replying, 'Of course it was!'

'It wasn't our finest one': The 56-year-old star confessed to co-host Coleen that it wasn't their best night of passion
Mr Hyde last night denied he has any such arrangement with his wife. However he declined to comment when asked why she would make the claims on national television if they were not true.
Miss Khan’s comments are a marked change from three years ago when, in an interview about the impact of a new fitness regime, she said: ‘My sex life has gone from being near-dormant to absolutely fantastic. Having my husband tell me I look great is the best feeling.’
And Mr Hyde has always been clear about how attractive he finds his wife. After her appearance on The Apprentice in 2005, he said: ‘As soon as I met Saira, I was attracted to her.
‘She had the highest energy levels of anyone I know, which I thought was amazing. I was bowled over straight away.
‘Saira has a great body and turns a lot of blokes’ heads whenever she works out. She likes showing off with sexy, stylish clothes too.’
However there were suggestions that her lack of sex drive was a symptom of deeper problems in the relationship.
Harry Benson, from the Marriage Foundation, said: ‘I feel sorry for them in the choice that they’ve made. Sex is usually a pretty good barometer of a relationship. While husbands and wives will often have different sex drives, if one person has lost it completely, the chances are there is a wider problem in the marriage.
‘Sending her spouse off for an affair with another woman seems certain to undermine their marriage further, and the commitment they have made together.’
He added that working to rebuild their ‘friendship’ may help. ‘I’m guessing their problem is not sex, it is basic friendship,’ he said. ‘If they re-establish that, she might find her sex drive reappears.’
