Safe Length Of Time Between Bowel Movements

How many days is it safe for someone to go without a bowel movement? As a form of humiliation, I'm planning to induce constipation in my pet with immodium and not allowing her to have a bm so that she will have more to expell during a special enema session.

But I am wondering, how many days can she safely go without a bm before doing this? I am sure 2-3 days would be safe, but I was wondering if anything in the 4-7 day range would be safe?

I don't mind if she feels unwell, it's part of the process and will enhance it for her. But I don't want to go too far and create any medical problems or risk her safety. Any idea on how long it is safe to have her go without a bm?

This actually sounds kinda hot! You are supposed to have a bm at least 1 time every 7 days.. Thats a long time but thats the truth of it

Well,I wouldn't go more than 7 days only because it may cause her more discomfort but I'm NOT an expert here.It really depends on her usual body system and what she is eating/drinking and her activity level.

I think I probably will try no more than seven and monitor her health. Discomfort is fine - she is enthusiastic about pain. But I agree with your maximum. I could always have her try again in a couple months and add a day. Nothing is worse jeopardizing her health and well being. Thanks!

I think I will try her out on seven days for this first time to be safe. I think she will enjoy the discomfort during that time and the humiliation during her special session 😃

I wouldn't push much further than seven days to avoid any complications. I'm sure by the end of the seven days there wouldn't be much empty space in the colon.

I wouldn't venture an opinion since I go at least twice a day. I would ask Susie tho - I'll bet she would have a good opinion.

If you are only going once every 7 days you should change your diet drastically once in 24 hours is the minimum for a normal adult .less and you are risking your health badly bowel cancer is not funny.

For a first time I would strongly suggest that you try no more than 3 days, maybe no more than 2. I have no medical training though and feel it would be wisest to wait until someone suitably qualified to advise you posts a reply here. Mashie or Switchablesusie could give a better answer than I.

When growing up, I was taught that a person should go no more than three days without having a BM, bot on the third day, you better be doing something do get yourself going again, whether it be an enema, suppository or laxative.

Ok I speak only for where I work...Not letting her do anything for 7 days is asking for some major trouble. So forget that straight away!! As for safe amount of time we have a general rule of thumb:-

2 Days is ok and some people do only need to go once every other day so we leave them to it.

3 Days we start paying attention and asking is this normal?? if not we ask if they need any help.

4 Days and well you wil be going to the toilet regardless of your wants, normal functions or if your embarresed.

so please be safe and careful.

If you DO decide to ignore our advice well... I hope you love her enough to clean her daily when she has problems....

Patients who have chronic constipation - whether due to medications, eating habits, lack of hydration, or other causes - are at risk for mega-colon, which is a permanently over-stretched colon. That can produce life-long medical problems. While a one-time experience may not pose such a risk, know that there can be unpleasant - non-kinky - consequences.

Fecal impaction is a potential problem if one goes too long, and there is nothing fun about getting it broken-up. I would start to get concerned at about three to four days. If you think you might be impacted start with an oil retention enema as the first step to loosen things up.

No more than three days normally. If your partner is brave and willing she can try for four days but expect problems and the need for mineral oil enemas and digital dis-impaction. This is not a fun or pleasant experience for anyone so why not avoid it entirely.

There was a time after knee replacement that I went seven days and I was miserable. At the time I had an LMT who was also a Colonic Therapist. She was a godsend. During the procedure she said I was in bad shape. That lady was and is a person who understands the human body functions. Pain medications come with a price.

The longest time I ever went without a bowel movement was 2 weeks. I had to go into hospital for a hip replacement. I had a bowel movement the day I went in. After 3 days in hospital, with no further bowel movement, I really wasn't expecting any, I was given something to drink on 2 consecutive nights, with no result. On the day I was discharged I was given 2 suppositories, again these had no effect, although I told them they did as I really wanted out and they really wanted me out, and I didn't want to face whatever else they wanted to try.

I expected nature to take its course, eventually, but a week after I was discharged, my body gave me no indication that it needed to go, other than some abdominal discomfort. A call to NHS24 suggested what food to avoid and to consider a trip to the chemists. So before an embarrassing trip to the chemist I sat on the toilet for goodness knows how long with a face turning every colour in the rainbow, through excersion. Eventually producing a result.

I do like a happy ending, even if it does make me lose my appetite.

By the time you get to the 4th day the impaction can get serious. Please be careful.

As a Proctologist and Colo-Rectal surgeon, I would not suggest any more than three days without a BM. The longer you wait the more serious the problem becomes and the more painful it gets to relieve this situation. Fecal impaction is nothing to mess around with and can cause some serious side effects if not treated properly. I would not induce constipation on anyone. I large enema will cause a great deal of fecal matter to be expelled. There is no need to constipate a person to make them have a large volume bowel movement

I have told elsewhere the story of my youth. I was 19 and on my way to a vacation job when my car broke down. I had zero money, and bargained my way to the nearest town for a tow (20 miles or so). then I had to find a train to continue to the mine where I was to work. Well, it must have had a traumatic effect, because I then didn't go for two whole weeks. I wasn't trying to do this, remember! I tried some phenolphaleine laxatives about day 9, but could detect no response whatever. I wasn't uncomfortable, bloated or anything - just worried!

Eventually, my bowels did move on day fourteen, but the item inside me was by then almost as hard as compacted subsoil. It was also over three inches in diameter, and my then virgin unstretched arsehole simply couldn't accommodate it. I had to push it back into myself and think again. So I swiped a teaspoon from the canteen and retired to a toilet the next time my big passenger came knocking. I pushed and pushed and then took the teaspoon and began excavating. It was painful, but I did manage to take an inch or so off the end of the monster before I couldn't take any more. I may have done this one more time before I realised my turd was probably gaining on me. Then I had another idea. The single quarters where I lived had communal bathrooms with the baths out in the open, but I waited until everyone else was asleep and then tiptoed in, scooted my bum up against the cold tap in one of the baths, and gave myself as large an enema as I could manage before fleeing (with my trusty teaspoon!) to the nearest toilet stall. Remember, I had by now taken off the business end of my cargo and also stretched my arsehole repeatedly. It was enough! Several inches of tightly wadded shit of prodigious diameter emerged with a lot of pain - and, of course, blocked the toilet. But I still had my teaspoon and I got rid of it; however, I had my first attack of piles...not funny!

I survived, and I have since gone for longer - almost three weeks. I think I've probably got some megacolon there, My verdict? Not safe after a week for me; but do NOT try this at home!

Things are different in hospitals these days. I was in intensive care for 10 days with no bowel movement. I complained and the nurse did nothing. I went home with nurse visitation every three days for two weeks. The first week home I mentioned to the nurse that it has been more then 10 days with no BM. She gave me a suppository to insert myself. Finally, after straining and have blood my wife gave me two fleet enemas for some relief. Because of recent surgery I could not tolerate a bag enema for another two weeks, which I gladly took once I could. I even asked the home nurse about an enema and she said they are not done anymore.

When I was growing up, up to about the age of 10 or 11, If I did not have a BM in the morning I got an enema when I got home from school. or should I say two enemas, both soapy.Now, my wife insists that I have enemas weekly. One soapy, one with salt and essential oils and one coffee enema. I feel great from them. I am fortunate that my wife will give them to me as it is easier to lay on the bed, relax and take the enema. When we travel I always am given enemas the day before we leave and on the day we return and during the trip.

Give her a higher dose than recommended, I'm speaking from experience! I was truly constipated for a week taking immodium. It actually is kind of hot especially for the dom but as a sub it also can be hot. Knowing what you're doing for your dom actually can be an amazing feeling😃

2 years ago I went (didnt go) for 14 days----but was not constipated since I had the flu and didnt eat for that 14 days. After I started eating again, things moved as they should

To all those seeking to induce or acquire constipation on purpose

Direct quotes from Dr Norman Walker: "A state of constipation can exist when movements of the bowel seem to be normal [,,,] two or more bowel movements a day are not a guarantee that all is well [...]

Obviously if the faeces in the colon have putrefied and fermented, any nutritional elements present would pass into the blood stream as polluted products. What would otherwise be nutritional becomes, in fact, the gestation of toxaemia"

Early signs of fecal autointoxication - pimples, greasy skin, unexplained persistent nausea, headaches, irritability and irrational behavior etc

Mid-term signs - general health deteriorates, immune system afflicted

In the very long term - cancer

(sources for this info are too numerous to list)

Honestly, I think it would be better to find another form of safer humiliation. Sex practices that can or do result in injury should be off the table.

I wouldn't cite Walker as a source for unimpeachable medical advice.

That said I also wouldn't induce constipation for too long. You can mix up an enema for your special session that will be very memorable without much constipation and will still be safe, especially if you use a balloon nozzle to force retention.

I know it's an old original post, but people can have the same question.

Never go more than 3 days without a bowel movement. You can cause fecal impction easily. Please dont give your sub immodium to keep them 7 days without one. They could end up in er

I would listen to the medical folks here and say for play that 3 days is a good max. Fun is fun, but risking real health issues is not to be taken lightly. Plus she might want to alter her diet as well.

I had an online friendship with a woman that loved, loved, LOVED making large bowel movements. She tested and tried out many things to constipate herself. If I recall correctly, she always tried for 3 or 4 days, and maybe pushed it to 5 a few times. But she also had 30 yrs of experience playing with her body this way...

Right, and I also think in general that the notion of giving someone a medicine (which used to be a prescription drug, now OTC) to induce or produce a bona fide medical problem (constipation) instead of treat the opposite (real) problem (diarrhea) is at best a fools errand. Even using any drug as directed puts you at risk of side effects, and using it on a normal, non-ill "patient" for fun may even produce direct or side effects not present in a real patient. Find another way to have fun and/or humiliate her if that's what she wants. Humiliation for submissive fun and satisfaction is fine, but misusing a real drug just for play is not a good plan.

As interesting an idea as this might sound to punish someone, I personally have reservations about doing it. Why would you do something that could cause medical issues and risk having to go to medical professionals. I am sure there are much better ways to punish someone without putting them at risk.

Since you're both interested in retaining volumes of stool in her colon, have you thought of a series of larger and larger enemas which she'd have to retain for longer and longer? It would likely distend her farther than retained stool, but with the ability (or need) to get rid of it when she was permitted. If it was me as the sub, you could get me up to over 4 quarts and gradually work me up to longer and longer retentions (my current record is over an hour). I'm sure I could be induced to for example hold it overnight. To add to the burden, as you were training her up to more and longer, she could be required to do various tasks either lying on the bed/floor, sitting or standing/walking, some if which would include providing you with stimulation and orgasms. She could be permitted various belts, clothes or other supports to support her belly at later stages.

My ex-wife would do similar scenes with me when her Domme side was in a "sub retaining distended belly" mood. I gave her plenty of oral stimulation, PIV and orgasms filled like that. If we hadn't divorced I'm sure she would have worked me up to some overnight retentions. We would use very benign solutions like saline or bicarbonate or sometimes mild Castile solutions to minimize absorption problems. She also added other mutual kinks to it including rubber clothes, hoods, gags and bondage.

It's not as long as several days of stool retention, but it has the same flavor of your sub partner staying filled up for relatively long times with a full belly. Just a thought.
