Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Vs. Ivory

When it comes to enemas, I've been a lifelong fan of Ivory bar soap. Just switching the bar around in my big, clear, open top bag was enough to excite me. Alas, I've come to discover that the soapy residue clinging to the inside of my “paddle wheel” flow meter was gradually coating the inside of the glass making it difficult to read despite my thoroughly cleaning everything with a multiple of products after every use.

Using a new meter (my last one) I switched to Dr. Bronner's Peppermint. After months of regular fills, I have found it to rinse clear with no residue. As an added benefit, the “tingling” sensation provides a little added thrill.

I like Dr. Bronner's Peppermint for two reasons. First, I like the tingling sensation. I also like the cramps it produces. For me Dr. Bronner's produces a lot more cramps than Ivory.

Just recently tried Dr Bronners peppermint soap and think it's the best/most effective/most enjoyable solution I've tried to date! Highly recommend it to anyone. J&J baby shampoo would come in second for me when you just want a good hassle free cleanout.

Dr. Bronner's Peppermint is wonderful for so many things including enema solutions. Not only does it irritate my insides just right, it makes my butt smell good when it's finally empty!

On cleaning soap scum: soak devices and accessories in a white vinegar. Whatever solution you use to clean the insides of your coffee pot/maker, teakettle, etc. You could add some Dawn dishwashing liquid to the mix to break down any oils. Let it soak for an hour or so, then squeeze water through hoses and hose accessories. Rinse thoroughly.

Me too. Dr Bronner's really irritates my anus good.

No opinion here, but grew up on Ivory soap enemas and the scent as I entered the bathroom with Mom waiting with a bulb or bag. The aroma was unmistakable . Later on I started on DR. B's peppermint or lavender for a good cleanout, but if I want to go back to early days growing up, I'll pick up a bar of Ivory and shave it down

We always have Dr Bronner's (peppermint, lavedar, rose, and plain)in the house so it is our soap of choice. I've never tried Ivory so can't really say one way or the other on it.

Ivory, Dr. Bronner's, and Dove are my go-to soaps (ha, cheesy pun). I've never tried Fels as it sounds too caustic, even though it's not supposed to contain any naphtha…. With Dr. B's I tried plain, peppermint, lavender, etc… I like the cool feeling of the peppermint. Funny thing; mixing any with Ivory did not produce a more powerful enema; just the opposite.

My girlfriend in college introduced me to the peppermint soap as we both grew up with Ivory soap. She inserted a colon tube deep inside and gave me wonderful tingly enemas . Once I was full, she would slowly withdraw the tube and insert a vibrator. I would retain the crampy enema enjoying the vibration in my anus until the enema would win and force me to expel it. The whole bathroom would smell of peppermint. The soap is strong so too much will cause strong cramps and a fast forceful expulsion.

I’ve never had ivory but I enjoy Dr. Bonner’s Peppermint. I like the tingling sensation as well as the faint smell of the peppermint. Makes me feel more refreshed afterwards. Anyone else feel more refreshed with the addition of Dr. Bonner’s Peppermint?

I don’t remember Ivory soap in my enema as a child, just plain warm water. One time as a young adult sent out of town by my employer for some training, I was alone and bored, so I went to a local drugstore and bought a Fleet Bag Enema. It came with a Castile soap packet. I found it quite pleasant. A little research led me to believe that Castile soap was the preferred soap for enemas given in clinics and hospitals. At first I just used unscented Castile soap but eventually tried Dr. Bronners lavender and peppermint versions. I prefer the unscented. But these days I like baby shampoo even better. I tried Ivory after reading here that it was common but didn’t like it. I find it much harsher than either Castile or baby shampoo.

I have used both Dr. Bronners (plain) and Ivory bar soap. The Dr. Bronners seems to give a more urgent and stronger urge to go. Over numerous decades, I have tried a lot of different additives, some would not be done now for safety, but back then safety was a little vague. The Dr. Bronners and Ivory bar soap seem mild enough although your mileage may vary!

Why use a flow meter? Are your enemas some kind of physics experiment?

Why use a flow meter?

I like the visual of seeing the flow going into me. Watching it start and stop, and sometimes after it stops I'm not immediately aware that's it's begun going into me again. I like that…

I have a flow meter too and like it, let's you know how fast it's flowing and if it stopped flowing. If it stops, I reposition the nozzle, change positions, or rub my tummy.

Bar soap, Ivory and my current favorite Kirk's Coco-Castile mixed to a milky frothy (and crampy) bag is great! J&J baby shampoo for a mild yet thorough clean out is lovely. Dr. B's peppermint, almond, lavender, baby and hemp castile are awesome for a good 1st and 2nd bag. Then sea salt and water until clear❤🚀😜😈 Then a wonderful 6-8% white wine 3 quart finish.

I use both. Dr. Bonners is great. Learned of it here on Zitybiz

My initial enemas were with ivory which I liked very much but have used dr bronzer’s too and those cramps seem to be more intense. Have to be careful not to use too much or end up with nausea

I did a Dr. Bronner's Tea Tree Oil enema yesterday with a very large amount of soap in it. I didn't vomit, but I did feel like it a lot.
