Do enemas make you nauseated?

At times given certain solutions or concentrations I've found myself nauseous, sweaty and faint. I try to remember what I did and not do it again!

No, never in 50+ years, even up to as much as 5 quarts (one time) and many times 4 quarts. I like to either move around (crawl, waddle or walk with belly holding) or move the water around (massage and position changes) when holding to experience the pressure and distention, but this never causes nausea. Even when I felt chemical irritation from soap or glycerin, or experienced waves of cramps or strong urges, it never manifested as nausea. I guess I'm just lucky, but my solutions are rarely especially strong by Zity standards. That may have helped.

I can only recall one time that I made myself nauseous when giving myself or getting an enema. It occurred while getting an enema that contained about about a pint of lemon juice and 1 and 3/4 quarts of warm water. I broke out into a sweat and became very nauseated. I had to take a cold rag and rub my face with it to get relief. You will not catch me taking another one of those!

Never done, never will, but that enema might just be the one to cause me nausea.

Slight to moderate nausea can happen and it's a good sign you are at your limit and should wait before you go any farther.

Actual sever nausea can be prevented by waiting at least 8 and better 12+ hours between eating solid food and taking an enema. In that time no alcohol and keep caffeine to a bare minimum

Sometimes, if I take them too fast or too much.

For me, the key is to go slow and in that way I don't become nauseous and further I can take more, and most importantly for me, I enjoy it more.

I've had enemas all my life, and on the rare occasions when my nightly laxative (followed by a suppository if I didn't go first thing after rising) didn't do the trick, I was given an enema after breakfast and kept home for a day of enemas. Our enemas were started right after breakfast Saturday mornings when Sis and I got our weekly cleanouts. Neither of us recall any nausea as a result of enemas on a full stomach. Large volumes didn't seem to cause a problem, either. Mom switched us to the bag when we were 8, and it was a 4 quart bag, common back then. Of course, she didn't start us with a full bag. As I recall, we got 1 quart at first, and as we got older, and larger, she gradually increased our volumes until we were taking the whole bag by 16. So, in our experience, a 4 qt enema with LOTS of soap on a full tummy never caused nausea. Were we lucky, or is there maybe a genetic vector at work here?

A medical advice that I often read about large volume enemas is to wait at least 2 or 3 hours after meals before administering one.

If a full colon presses on a full stomach, nausea can arise easily adding unnecessary discomfort to the patient.

If the patient vomits during the enema, he will almost certainly expel the contents of his intestines into the bed also.

I don't dare to think how much effort it would cost to clean everything after...

I noticed when i did it too fast I was nauseous but once i slowed it down it went away.

Usually the answer is no.

Generally being filled by either my 4 or 5 liter bags doesn't cause nausea even when I'm capable of taking the full bag fairly quickly.

The only time I've ever experience a sense of nausea is with a very strong, soapy enema where I've dissolved most of a bar of soap into the liquid and boosted it with a 10-15% variable strength glycerin enema. That has really powerful contractions and can give me nausea for a few minutes while the mixing of the enema solution takes place in my colon.

This type of enema is usually a lower volume enema (2.5 - 3.0 liters) allowing the strength of the contents to create some powerful contractions. Hard to hold these enemas, even with a balloon catheter, if you're retching your guts out because of nausea. For these enemas, I keep a clean trash can near by.

If you add 1 teaspoon of salt for each quart it will keep you from absorbing water and will cut way down on being nauseous. Try it and see. It works.

Essentially anything more than mild nausea or vertigo, or just feeling like you have an "upset stomach" and it's your body telling you you need a break before taking any more enemas. Wait for the nausea to settle down before doing another round

Two women I've administered to have ended up with feeling 'bad' during their expulsion - nauseous, light headed, maybe a headache. Something just got thrown off in their system.

Adding salt to the plain water really seems to help!!

Right from the first time I was given an enema in a hospital setting in prep for my giving birth for the first time I experienced nausea.

Fast forward to last summer when I was given my first erotic enema ( two quarts, warm water, slowly, on empty stomach) I was nauseous, dry heaving into a bucket, light headed, weak and somewhat out of it.

Tried again, but made sure my blood sugar was good and I was well hydrated ....pretty much same results.

This became my pattern even though we tried different methods; less volume, shorter hold time, etc .

It wasnt until sea salt was added to the water that it made a huge difference, like night and day !

Everyone body is different and for me I guess it was the absorbtion of the water that was wreaking havoc on me.

So experiment a little, be careful and patient.

It was worth the effort for me ?

Generally the nausea is the enema fluid passing from the large intestine through ileocaecal valve (basically a one way flap) into the small intestine. The ileocaecal valve is found in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen. It forms the junction between the ileum of the small intestine, and the caecum of the large bowel. It regulates and controls movement of liquid waste from the small to the large bowel and is prone to blockage. If the valve is pressed correctly as in massage therapy or by a chiropractor many lower bowel problems can be solved. My mother had it done by her chiropractor and gave her relief from months of bowel problems.

Nope but then depends on what you take and how much

Sometimes if its to soapy it can cause so stomach discomfort

I am again going to remind everyone here that we are all very different. While a lot of the advice given here is good to try, there is not a one size fits all fix.

I almost gave up figuring that maybe I was one in a million that just could not handle enemas. We tried unsuccessfully different positions, hold times, amounts , etc we never even attempted using anything but plain water.

Like I said before, experiment, be patient and learn what works for YOU .

They do if I do a very large (1 gallon) enema with warm water

Lying on back is the way to go. Pillow under bum and slow fill helps A LOT. So put your bag on the towel rack not the shower rack. If I'm really constipated though even with salt the enema makes me nauseous.

It arrive me sometimes to be nauseous when I do large enema with soap

I always take mine on an empty stomach. 8 hours at least for just an ordinary enema with 12 hours or more for a system cleanse.

That means nausea is not usually a problem. Sometimes on a system cleanse I get mild to moderate nausea. I know what it means, it means I have overdone it and I wait for the nausea to back off before taking the next round .

When you start getting a little nausea, waaaaaay before you ever throw up, SLOW DOWN. Your body is trying to tell you that you are overdoing it.

Only once when I'd taken a 2 qt enema not too long after eating lunch. My stomach said "this is not a good idea".

I'll never do that again.

ONce after a large meal, I got nauseated and vomited from the filling. I learned to never eat much before taking another one. Live and learn.

Back a few years I would sometimes become nauseous after a strong soapy enema, while the enema was working... I now believe that was the result of my having a clogged heart artery since after my open-heart surgery I haven't had this kind of problem.

No. Not ever in 50+ years so far.

Plain water solutions merely makes me feel bloated and uncomfortable.

Glycerin (or any other stimulant) enemas will make me nauseated and break into cold sweat. It's quite a horrible experience, but if the other person asks me to, I usually still comply.

The only time I barfed after an enema series was after I returned home from a colonoscopy. I had been NPO for 2 days and had prepped with the usual laxative preparations. I had been sedated for the procedure. I had gotten in the Jacuzzi and "Victoria" was hanging around staring at me. I couldn't resist her and took 3 enemas in fairly short order.

While I'm sure the combination of circumstances were unfavorable, and can't blame it all on "Victoria" or the enemas, it was the only time that my personal enjoyment was interrupted as I had fluids coming out of most orafices.

Prepping for subsequent colonoscopies were handled much differently therafter.

No, never nauseated, at least not in 50+ years, but very strong soap or glycerin above about 8-10% can make me break into a cold sweat from inducing such chemical irritation plus cramping and strong evacuation urges. Can be very trying and extremely uncomfortable for awhile. At least it's never given me nausea.

Nauseated and vomiting, never again!
