Repeated sex considered to include love finally (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iterated

'repeated' is the definition.
('iterate' can be a synonym of 'repeat')

'sex considered to include love finally' is the wordplay.
'sex' becomes 'it' (a common euphemism).
'considered' becomes 'rated' (I've seen this before).
'to include' is an insertion indicator.
'finally' suggests the final letters.
The final letter of 'love' is 'e'.
'it'+'rated'='itrated'
'itrated' going around 'e' is 'ITERATED'.

(Other definitions for iterated that I've seen before include "given repeat" , "Done over" , "Kept repeating" , "Repeated or stated repeatedly" , "Said or did again" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
