How do play Doctors make sure their equipment is clean?

I do enjoy having a full, medical examination with rectum examination but always concerned about how clean the instruments our as I am afraid of getting infections from equipment used.

How do play Doctors make sure their equipment is clean?

We have our own set of instruments that are just used on me. They’re washed after with anti bacterial soap and alcohol and occasionally boiled for 10 minutes. I either use them or single use new

I wash thoroughly all my toys used when playing. Usually with strong antibacterial soap and/or toy cleaner. Some pieces are boiled as per Nurse Phillips.

All of my dildos and penetrative toys are covered with condoms.

Not much of a playdoc. but generally in playsessions:

As much disposable as possible,

Metal items and stuff that cant be covered with a condom:

A good schrub / wash with warm water and soap, and a 15 min soak in a medical grade sterilisation solution.

(I use one thats safe to use on plastics etc aswell as metal, Heliopur-N, it kills any bacteria and most known virus, inc all STD and HIV virus)

Everything else: Dry condoms

I'm a TOTAL clean freak!! I use disposable as much a possible or put a condom on them, others I wash with very hot water and soap than wipe them down with alcohol.

I do a three step process:

1. Soak in a cleaning solution after use.

2. Wash with soap/water or if it’s chemical safe, some type of disinfectant

3. Either boil or steam sterilize.

For sure no question !! - continually clean, so be ready for the upcoming use !!

I may be able to add to some questions about sterility with all toys, used in sensual and sexual play. Yes, Indeed The Medical Profession have sophisticated processes for The Sterilization of instruments, used on and in the human anatomy .You may know that common household bleach is a very strong and powerful germicide. Very little goes a Long way. Laytext Gloves are Very Handy and Useful especially in Anal Play. For ladies with Long Fingernails, very Helpful to Use Laytex Gloves. Enjoy Your Play!!!

Since problems are not problems until they end up becoming problems this really is something you should think about in a play setting

Instruments that are re-used in a professional setting go into an autoclave for cleaning. Disinfects, and sterilizes to a certain extent, but not 100%

Next best thing would be to buy an autoclave - check with local tattoo shops as they use them and update equipment from time to time

If you do neither of the above then washing , boiling, and all that is the bare minimum - but you really need to get a bottle of Povidone iodine. There are several other chemicals used in combination to meet true sterility, but see above for better methods

If you choose to only boil - it does inactivate just about everything - keep your instruments in boiling water for at least 5 minutes or longer. 2-3 typically is enough, but longer can't hurt , so just do it

If you have multiple people you play with the the smart thing to do is buy new instruments for each of your play partners. If you can't afford 50 bucks to buy a new reasonable quality speculum, then maybe take up a different hobby?

Instapot can be used as an autoclave. If the instruments can handle it- autoclave them. If not, boiling water for 5 minutes. Lastly, a bleach solution will work for some e gear, though as it was already mentioned, best is fresh gear for each play patient. Thus, some have a collection of disposable stuff and tools they can gift to a new play partner.

Once I used my InstantPot that way, I could never cook in it again. I know, I know, it would be clean enough, but the mental connection will have been made. I don't want penne pasta that's shared a container with somebody's ass toys.

Lab Tech here. We spray everything down with a solution of bleach and water. Cheap and effective. For anything dealing directly with bacteria, a small red-hot furnace the size of a coke can sterilizes instruments in seconds.

Anything metal can be cleaned with bleach, sunlight also kills everything. same for some plastics. things that are porous get covered or are one time use.

People need to realize that there is a difference between clean technique and sterile technique. Most if not all pathogens will die in 24-48 hours without a host.

So it really depends on what you are doing and where you are putting things.
