When do you NEED an enema?

Typically "slow transit" is not an issue but excessive gas is frequent. That's always a good reason (excuse) to take an enema. Soapy ones work better for gas relief.

I don’t recall a time that I “needed” an enema unless you consider a childhood hospitalization in the 70’s where I was given several enemas before finally receiving a barium enema on the x-ray table. At the time, I would guess it was medically necessary. Mom gave me an enema on two different occasions when she felt I had been constipated as a child but I have not taken an enema for that purpose since. All of my enemas since have been for pleasure and have always been spur of the moment and never planned or thought of as needed.

Now, but circumstances preclude some enema time for me right now🙈I’ll always have Zity😍

When my digestive issues and IBS symptoms start acting up more than usual, for sure. Also when my migraines are on a bad streak. That brain-gut relationship is no joke.
