Irish spring as soap suppositories or for enemas in the USA

Hello to our friends in the US, I have a question about Irish Spring. How many of you have been given this soap as a suppository or enema? Regularly or irregularly?

I'm from Canada. On the rare occasion she gave me a suppository and she had run out of glycerin suppositories my Mom would use a soap stick carved from Ivory bar soap. She always used Ivory for my soapsuds enemas of which I got about a dozen most years.

Assuming the ingredient list I looked at is accurate it appears to not have anything too dangerous in it. Curious why you are being so specific? Was this what was used on you? Any other details?

Way too much fragrance chemicals in that stuff

Moliere,

No, I have never had Irish Spring myself as it is not available in Germany. I have just read in a few posts that Irish Spring is used there. It seems to be more common in the USA.

As a child I always got a soap called Nautik. A blue soap with a fresh scent, but not that strong.

Over here I think milder soaps are more commonly used. Ivory or Castile. I'm sure Irish Spring would help cover up some smell, but I haven't heard of it being used

Never given, but gave an Irish Spring soapstick to myself once and ended up with a headache. After talking with some people here, I came to the conclusion that the ingredients might have caused said headache and haven’t dabbled with this specific brand again.

Could be the fragrance. They have a lot of it, and we know that fragrances can enter the bloodstream (like when you take a peppermint soap enema and taste it).

Ingredients of Irish Spring:

Sodium Laurate/Linoleate/Oleate/Palmitate, Water/Eau, Glycerin, Fragrance/Parfum, Sodium Chloride, Linum Usitatissimum (Linseed) Seed Oil, Tetrasodium EDTA, Etidronic Acid, Titanium Dioxide, Green 8, Green 3.

In no case I shall take Irish Spring for suppositories or enemas, exclusively a natural soap (Ivory or Castile soap) without any additives.

So I was really just wondering if there was anyone who was given Irish Spring as a child. I'm not one of them and I don't really want to try it. I'm just interested.
