What to do against the smell?

Is there anything one could do to limit the bad smell coming out of a good and thorough enema?

I add some glycerin soap (from the natural stuff area of my grocery store) and Epsom salt to the water and 4 quarts go in in about 10 minutes.

The cleansing feeling is complete and the expulsion takes a few minutes.

The problem is that it stinks my whole house and I have had complaints.

It seems that the smell comes from the feces from the transverse area, which as usually not in the final stage of digestion and have a very specific odor.

As for my diet, I eat very little meat, I could pass for a veggie some days because I simply do not eat any, mostly a little bit of beef and pork, but mostly fish (canned tuna these days) and chicken.

I do not eat anything deep fried, no pizza, no white bread, mostly green veggies, tomatoes, fruits (I snack on apples), and basically no junk food, so I guess it's not from my diet.

I was wondering if I could try baking soda? What do you people recommend?

Thanks in advance!!!

If you use a fair concentration of Dr Bronners Peppermint soap, it will be of some help but frequent flushing is important too. I do agree that the smell of faeces from the lower bowel is worse that that from higher up the colon. I had a professional enema session a couple of weeks ago and the nurse was of that opinion too and she should know!

There are some pretty efficient room deodorising sprays about too

I use Dr Bronners Peppermint soap as well. It does cut down on the smell.Of course I just flush alot and it's no problem. Scented candles work too.

I also use peppermint soap and more often, a few drops of peppermint oil. My house smells great after doing an enema!

Willy is right about the goat milk soap at OHN. You will loooove it!! Also, not too expensive.

Bottoms Up!

Keep the exhaust fan on, or failing that, the window open just slightly!

Brown bottle Lysol works great too. Add 2 caps full to TANK of toilet then each flush will freshen up bowl and help with the smell. For a stronger dose put a small amount in trashcan before you start. This will make your home smell more like a hospital than anything, but very clean smell. :-\

Dr. B’s peppermint is the best soap and smell you can get on planet earth.

I recommend BrBronners peppermint also

WOW it makes the bathroom smell good actually..I love to be with my emates when they evacuate..Helping.,coaching.Letting them suck me as i stand in front, and yes the peppermint does make that easier...

Since the offensive odor is primarily methane gas produced in the intestine, an open candle flame close to the toilet will reduce it considerably. Besides, it's a nice ambiance.

Try burning matches - paper or the old fashioned kitchen ones. You'll be amazed how well it works.

I have to agree with that, just light a match and wave it slowly around under the rim of the toilet. I learned this when I worked in a place that was all men and there was no air freshener in the common restroom, just a pack of matches on the back of the tank and no one smoked in there.

I've heard about the matches trick from an ex-boyfriend. He asked me for matches prior to using the bathroom and I had idea what they were for. I don't smoke, but have lighters all around the house for burning candles and incense. But apparently lighters don't have the same effects. Something about the methane and sulfur, but don't look at me. I failed Chem 101.

I have never given my partner enemas. Mainly because he's a big baby about some things, but the other reason is odor. Even on his best days, the smell after he leaves the bathroom was best described by my friend Jennifer who refers to his BM's as Toxic Waste Dumps. I would not give him an enema unless I had a priest in a catcher's mask standing by to perform an exorcism.

Matches work because the smell of sulfur is so overpowering that it drowns out most any other smells.

Personally, I'm a big fan of canned smells in bathrooms. And exhaust fans...

If your a non smoker or a smoker that does not carry matches(I smoke,carry a lighter only) and want some defense when using a john, carry a clothes pin(guys, you can hook one on the end of your key ring by drilling a hole in one of the handles. Gals can keep one in thier purse). Acts like a gas mask. Discovered this when having to assist mom one time. Had to hold sis's legs up in the air as mom forgot to have a fresh diaper nearby,sis' had a bad case of the runs. After holding my nose with my other hand,I saw the clothes pin bag hanging on the wall next to me. Mom came back and was a bit awed seeing me with a clothes pin on my nose. Mom said "wish I had thought of that, you were a stinker yourself and your brother as well. Sis,was number 3 child,she had two more. Mom looked kind of funny with a clothes pin on her nose for the other two.

Swooney, I think the person was looking for a solution to neutralize the odors so no one else in the household was disturbed by it.

Hi,

although i`m new to this,i would suggest flushing the loo after the first and second time. 😃

good luck

I use a nice smelling purfume candle in my small bathroom and I open the skylight during my enema sessions.In the Winter,I also use a spray deoderant,works fine.Let the good times flow.w/m73yrs/Western Ma

I add baking soda to most of my enemas. It really helps with retention. i have never had an issue with an overwhelming smell like you describe. i usually have 2-4 enemas a day starting out with a Mae West (baking soda/sea salt, coffee). Good luck.

I use something called Medi-Aire (Biological Odor Eliminator). Search for it online.

Very effective!

With candles or deodorizer you have two bad odors to deal

with at once! It may be better to flush twice because

its a long distance to the neighborhood greasy spoon diner!

Matches or incense.

We use a three wick fragrance candle in a jar, along with the bath fan. It works well.

Try using some baking soda, sodium bicarbonate in your water, works for me, I usually add a couple teaspoons or more

Wonder who was complaining about the smell.....has anyone noticed that you get used to it when you are in the room ? and basically smell nothing after a while,

Mix in a tablespoon of peppermint or lavender soap-I use Dr. Bronners. The enema expulsion will smell a lot more pleasant.

It's just part of the enema scene.

Baking soda helps. I also add 8 to 10 drops of peppermint oil. You will need to add soap to the solution to get the oil to mix with the water. Or just use Bonners peppermint soap.

I hate to sound like a dyi guy but if your br exhaust fan doesn't help a lot. If you can, get a new powerful and quiet exhaust fan. That with candle and or matches should do it. Beside helping with odour the new fan will prevent mould from the shower

I purchased a small bottle of a product called Poo-pourri at a pharmacy. It gives off a nice citrus odor in the bowl and completely blocks any foul odor.

I'm always sure to have it handy when involved in enema play with my lady friends. They really appreciate it.

Poo-Pourri is a real product, see their youtubes with over 30 million views!

I posted this suggestion in another Forum but why not here. Has anyone tried essential oils or food flavourings mixed with KY or your enema solution if you want fragrance or taste in your lubricant?

Essential oils are natural and you wouldn't need much, the same with food flavourings. What a great variety of smells and flavours you could have for your anal and vaginal lubricants.
