What is the longest retention time anyone had held an enema?

I am sure this has been discussed before. I am curious about the longest length of time anyone has retained an enema and what circumstances they were under. Did you use an inflatable plug, retention nozzle or something else. Has anyone held one overnight, had sex while holding one and how does it enhance or affect having an orgasm.

My mom would leave the nozzle in for several minutes and once removed and told to sit on the toilet she would encourage us to hold the enema for as long as we could. On a good day this might be all of 10 minutes before we could not keep it in any longer and the heavens would need to open up, Oh, but what a relief that was, too.

Just under 3qt of coffee enema yes inflatable plug nozzle or our double inflatable balloon nozzle,had used both many times held for over 45 minutes once very close to an hour

My usual retenion time with a gallon of salt/soda is around an hour, but the longest retention was with a Mazola corn oil that I was made to retain for over four hours. This was in a BDSM scenario where I was made to hold and masturbate to orgasm before allowed to release.

Having sex while holding a gallon has led to some of the most intense orgasms I've experienced, with her on top and putting pressure on my abdomen causing the most exqusite pain/pleasure sensations.

An hour

I answered this before. The longest for me was about 20 minutes. I was online chatting. I don't remember if the other girl knew I was taking an enema or not. If it was the girl who started me on enemas then she knew because we would cam and do them. It was a 2-quart bag with the douche nozzle on it. That is the usual setup I use. A lot of times I will take an enema while chatting and not tell the other girl. But I leave the nozzle in until I am on the potty. If I take it out before it is harder to hold and will leak when I take it out.

As I remember it. I would get a few bulb fulls of warm soapy solution (ivory) and retain a few minutes. It did not take long for that soapy solution to work. I remember well the wonderful release!

Back in the day during my weekend enema marathons, after a series of bags until clear, I’d retain three to four qts. of beer or wine enemas for up to two hours. Riding the waves of pleasure until I’d cum😜😳😍

Greetings everyone

I've commented on this a few times… My partner [Barb] and I do a weekend cleanout nearly every weekend. Saturday morning it's typically enemas til clear - this usually means multiple fills which can go to noon or so - we never hurry 😃

Sat evening we sometimes party with a gay male couple whom still loves having anal sex with us. When completely empty I can comfortably take 4qts, on occasion while holding I'll ‘sit’ on one of our ‘boys’ anally and start to release - I almost always get an intense O from this. We do this in a large walk-in shower with a bench and bag hooks on the walls. It's quite a turn on for all parties participating (and watching 😃

As for holding, I can easily hold a 4qt salt water enema or a green tea enema for an hour.

BJ

I try to hold all enemas 15 minutes if do-able.

I had one back in October that was a 2-qt Epsom Salt without any soapsuds. This was about 8:30 PM

Aftern the 15 minutes had run, I went to expel and only less than half ever came out. I waited at least 25 minutes on the toilet, nothing more was coming!

Next day, about 11AM. At least it was a work-from-home day! I did not make it to the toilet! It came on instantly. Change of clothes, Thorough cleaning of the toilet itself inside and out, the floor and walls in the small bathroom, and the floor outside the bathroom!

Worst experience with Epsom Salt ever, and I consider it a bad enema!!

The therapist I go to for my colonics adds a herbal enema as part of the treatment. She likes me to relax and hold the enema for fifteen minutes. She then releases it and continues the colonic. She believes that after fifteen minutes everything is complete.

If I get to 5 mins, I'm happy. I supppose if I took a quart less, maybe the time wouldbe longer. My main problem is shortly after starting the water, I have to pause it and massage it into my colon, as it immediately wants back out. I start the flow slow and lay on my back, but until I can get (sigmoid?) to relax, I can't hold it in.

Any other tips to get the fluid to flow into the colon more readily?

I’m never aiming for more than 20 minutes, which I try for when I’m sick with a respiratory bug and using an enema to rehydrate and feel better. For an IBS relief enema I aim for a 10-15 minute hold, depending on my symptoms (spasms: shorter; constipation: longer). For an IBS maintenance enema, I find 5-10 minutes does it. There has been the occasional “stuck” enema portion that has decided to pop out hours later, but I definitely don’t aspire to that.

@enema_addict my advice for longer holds is to use warmer (not hot) water. Make sure you have either a Higginson pump or, for a gravity enema, at least 2’ of height (I used to push this to 3 or 4 feet but moderate with the clamp, so I could keep the pressure generally safe but get short bursts of higher pressure when needed.) Next, don’t fight your anatomy; starting out on your left side lets you have less back pressure from gravity. Do use pauses and massage as you already do, then switch to your back, and eventually your right side once you have run more water in. Watch your total volume as too much stretch will trigger release.

If for some reason that doesn’t work, don’t be a hero. You may need to take a smaller volume first to relax or clear the way, then expel and try again.

If none of that works, you might have a medical issue that needs looking into.

When my Mom gave me soapsuds enemas when I was growing up she usually made me hold it in for 5 minutes timed with a kitchen timer while encouraging me to take slow deep breaths through my mouth whenever I felt cramps. She also squeezed my buttocks tightly together to keep me from expelling it before the 5 minutes was up. Occasionally if she wasn't satisfied with the results of the first enema she would give me a second one and force me to hold it in for 10 minutes.

15 mins. a few times, but now I go for 5-10 mins.

I am not big on hold times and retention with my traditional, large-volume hot soapsuds enemas. Still, I always do a 20-minute hold time when I do a coffee enema, which is usually at least a quart, but occasionally two quarts, for no therapeutic value, but I love volume. To ensure that, I use a double-balloon catheter.

@enema_addict

To get the enema up past the sigmoid, try using a 20” colon tube. They are available on Amazon. By getting the flow started up past the sigmoid the urge to expel will be diminished and you can retain your enema longer.

Good luck and have fun!

Just shy of an hour, 2qts of baking soda and water. Usually either with a double balloon nozzle, or a butt plug. I have obviously based on the time not done overnight. But I have fallen asleep 10-20 some minutes at a time while holding.

Now that i have a retention nozzle when i do a heavy duty punishment enema i hold it 20 minutes and when i release it is pure pleasure

2 hours, with 1.5 quarts warm body temperature coffee and 4 cubic inches of highly placed fresh air, while catching up with friends Activities and Contributions on Zity.biz. Laying on our bed with Wee-wee pad catcher and a soft fat plug, I can rub on it and make it slosh inside and even hear the treatment rock back and forth through my colon's hepatic flexure arc.

Some anatomy drawings, show that arc nestled under the bottom tip of the liver. To my understanding though, you have to reach up under your right rib cage to really know, you are rubbing on your liver. But it extends a little lower than that for a lot of people. I am only 5'8" and used to do steeple jack work a few times each month. Enemas the day before are often handy for that too.

I think the longest time I have retained an enema was ninety minutes. That was a one quart coffee enema. I usually shoot for fifteen to thirty minutes of hold time for my coffee. The first urge to expel comes soon, within 5 minutes, and once I resist that first round the urges become less and less and it is easy to hold. While holding, I sometimes sit at the computer checking out what is new here at Zity, and other things. I guess I lost track of time for a bit and by time I decided I should get rid of the enema I pretty much had to push it out. Not a lot came out and I had to pee frequently the rest of the day. My other enemas, either plain or with soap, are rarely held more than a few minutes.

So I was saying that 2 or 3 times my enema was completely drunk by the colon and did not come out the way it had entered.

The gastroenterologist who was brought in to perform a rectoscopy on me in 2013 told me that I should leave my colon alone.

Anyway, looking back, I tend to think that if the colonist is too upset, he goes on strike in one way or another.

I am curious if anyone else has tried to measure how much of an enema is absorbed over a period of time, such as an hour. This enema would have to be without salt or soda as they will affect the rate of absorption.

I have weighed myself before an enema, and again after letting out what will come out, after holding it for a measured amount of time to try to see how many ounces per hour were absorbed by my colon. The results are inconsistent. Sometimes only a few ounces are absorbed, sometimes it seems like more. Is it because an enema doesn’t always come out completely when you expel it, making it seem like it was absorbed? Or, does the body absorb more or less depending on whether you are dehydrated?

Like I mentioned earlier, my results were inconsistent, but a rough average leads me to believe that my colon absorbed about 8 ounces of a one quart coffee enema in 30 minutes. Anybody else ever check?

To me it seems as though how hydrated you are at the time of the enema, makes a differancevim how much you absorbed. Also I believe plain water is absorbed more than even a soapsuds enema. I find if I take an Enama and hold it too long an hour or two before bed, I'll be up every couple hours urinating. If I don't retain the Enema I'll be fine.

I take frequent coffee enemas, and although I sometimes vary the hold time depending on how much time I have, my mood, and other variables, my "normal" hold time is 15 minutes. But like previously mentioned by RedBulb99, the amount coming out at the end varies quite a bit. I think how hydrated I am at the time is a factor. Sometimes, it's like my body is saying, "Thanks, I needed that."

In my case, anywhere from 5 to a little over 20 minutes of hold time. It seems that the longer I hold my enema, the expel volume seems a bit less than when I go and expel sooner. I tend to sometimes weigh myself both before taking my enema and then again after expelling. I almost always gain a little weight the longer I hold.

About ten years ago, I was out of town and my luggage didn't make it on the flight. They delivered it about 5 AM to my hotel. I was wanting an enema, so I took one as soon as I had my gear. The enema got "stuck" and I gave up trying to get rid of it. In the morning, I needed to get ready to meet some people, and we went to a waffle house place for breakfast. About an hour later, the urge got strong, and I went to a bathroom and got blessed relief! I guess I held that enema for about 3 hours. I was sick with sinus stuff the rest of that stay, but I think the hotel room may have had a mold issue, as I immediately got better as soon as I left.

That's the longest I've ever held an enema!

Doing a parasite clean is the only time I try to retain an enema for any length of time. I make my own tincture using black walnuts. Black walnut (Juglans nigra), a native North American tree, has been used for centuries. The traditional medicine for its potent antimicrobial and antiparasitic properties. Black walnut’s ability to fight parasites, balance gut health, and even address stubborn skin conditions. Juglone exhibits strong antifungal activity too. My retention time is 15 to 20 minutes ... I use about 2 ML per quart of plain warm water.

@downsizing, let’s not expect too much from an enema regardless of the “tinctures” used…
