Solution temperature vs expulsion time

Over the years, I've grown to like my enemas about 105-107 degrees, but it seems to take forever to expell. Would taking cooler (98-100 degree) enemas help shorten expulsion times? In case the recipe might affect expulsion times, almost all of mine are isotonic enemas using either salt or baking soda, or a combination of both.

Long time ago, I once tried a cold water enema......got really bad cramps and never used cold water again.

All opinions welcome!

Thanks,

Hello Vapor:

Yes, I also use enemas that are cooler, rather than hotter. They also have some salt added and this seems to cause me to expell quickly. Like you, I have found that if the temperature of the enema is too high the expulsion could take some time.

I tried a cold-water enema once--never again!

I usually take my usual enemas around 110 and no hotter and so far not had any problem in expelling slowly and sometimes have to be quick to sit on the pan to expel. I guess we are all differant!

I prefer cool enemas most of the times except the last enema of the session that I call the main event.It usually takes about four enemas to clean me out for the main event,therefore cool solutions and sometimes even cold enemas allow for quicker expulsions.I love my coffee enemas as hot as I can stand because I hold them for about twenty minutes before expelling.In that case,the warm solution doesn't cause the urge to expel as quickly as cool solution does.I use differant temps for differant enemas.It all depends on what I am trying to achieve.

I get the best results wit warm, but not hot, to the touch. I don't use a thermometer. I'm not sure I need to. Warm, not hot to the touch is right.

I use 2 Qts. water with 2 tblspns of salt at 110 degrees.The 1st expulsion is a large volume but after that I expell about once every 3 to 4 minutes and usually takes about 12 to 15 minutes to complete the job.

I have the hot water set so that right from the tap its 110 degrees, no need to cool things off any and find it the most comfortable. On rare occasions have tried temps below 90 degrees and it cramps a lot more but seems to be a bit faster expelling but not such a big change that I bother to try it that way very often.

I do not about expulsion times related to temperature but I do not think the temperature should be below normal body temperature. As someone commented it causes cramping. A few degrees above is recommended (so I have read). From experience however various recipe cocktails will affect expulsion times. But, hey, we are all different. Definitely wise to take the temperature of the fluid as peoples sensitivity to touch is different; what feels warm to ones fingers may be to hot to another.

I have never timed it, but I do know if my enema is below body temperature, I have a difficult time retaining it. It doesn't cause cramps, just the unmanageable urge to expel. However, above body temp, no problems retaining it; I won't say until the cows come home, but for a good long time.

Cos.

I did an enema earlier this week and unfortunately it was not warm enough. I managed to take a bit more than a pint before having a bad urge to expel, but when I did not much more than soapy water came out. So I took more of it and same thing. In desperation I then added a quart of really warm water and that enema finally gave me some decent results. No, for me an enema has to be really warm, but not so hot as to injure me.
