Enemas and Constipation

Usually when I'm constipated I just try suppositories I like the feeling of them going up in me and the slight burning/ringing long sensation feels amazing but sometimes they just don't do the job and I end up taking a fleets

I give myself enemas on a regular basis, but rarely for constipation. however, over a period of several years I have given my wife enemas on two occasions for severe constipation which was caused by strong medication.Two senna tablets every night for a week did nothing to solve the problem, but the enemas I gave her did the trick immediately.

Camomille enema with olive oil. This is what I got as a child. I am often constipated, so this is always a great excuse ...

I found enemas to be the most effective relief from constipation without the side effects of oral medication. Also, I have never had any luck with suppositories.

Interesting thread.

Yes, I use them for constipation, and give them to my gf as well. She's not "into" them, but endures, knowing that it's important to me, and she does get constipated. Of course, I also use them for recreation, and occasional discipline (but gently with this--you can really harm a relationship by being TOO cruel, as a number of submissives have told me. Since I'm not naturally cruel, it works well).

One problem I have, and I wonder if others have, is that I get plugged "high up." It seems like I will still go, but I get bloated and full without a good enema series from time to time. It's as if the emptying is not at all complete.

Hope that's not too much info, but I wondered if anyone else has the same issue...

Of course enemas relieve constipation, and can also be a fun way of preventing it

Of course they are great for contispation. But as a good enema has to be done with empty bowels, in order to take large volume. So in case of constipation, I recommend a bulb enema with soapy water; then, once the way is free, a large rince (rince being the excuse...) enema, which is the really nice one you can enjoy.

@ clau271 It will be nice to be your neighbor , I will be ready and willing to help you when needed .

@ arielle the first small one at a "low temperature"(30°C.) and the large one the water may reach 45°C. in the bag with 14gr baking soda by liter water.

Don't get much real constipation. when I do, an enema, or rather enemas till clear is the approach I take.

About 99 percent of my enemas, actually probably 100 percent of my enemas I take, or used to be given are due to the fact that I am constipated.

To me, enemas are a lot of work, and are very time consuming. Start to finish an enema usually is about a 2 hour process for me, not to mention they totally exhaust me. Doc keeps telling me that if I would take them a few times a week they would't take half that long and wouldn't exhaust me like they do now. He says that he is usually refreshed after taking them, but only when he is severely constipated does he have the same issues I do with the amount of time and the lethargy.

The problems here with these solutions for me are two or three, even possibly four very basic things. The first one is time. I sometimes work close to an 80 hour work week, not always, but often enough. I just simply don't have that kind of time, especially when my normal average enema sessions take about 2 hours from start to finish. The second thing is, I don't eat right by any sense of the word. Every night, (because I am a very loyal customer, I go across the street where I work and eat at Tim Hortons. Everyday for the most part I order the same thing. I get a pannini sandwich, I leave it up to them as to what they feel like fixing me, a side of something, sometimes it's a bowl of chili, or lasagna, or a bag of chips, or a yogurt and berry cup, then 2 muffins, usually their choice too, (I like the surprise), and a large Icy Cap, all of which they only charge me 3.59 cents for. Heck, I can't pack my lunch for any cheaper than that. Now, before your mind starts wandering in to things like, "damn, that woman can really put the food away", please keep in mind that I only eat half my sandwich, half of my side, which ever one they pick, and drink about half of my Icy cap. Then I take the rest home and eat the other half a few hours before I go to bed, and I usually leave one of the muffins for my youngest daughter who is still in high school. She thinks I really love her, which I do, lol, but it starts her day off on a happy note because she feels that since I don't bring one for anyone else, it makes her feel special, and she needs that, so it's all good. Point I am getting at with this entire story is that all I drink in that 24 hour period, is that Icy Cap, thus probably leaving me pretty much in a constant state of dehydration. Thirdly, I only poop anyplace between 7-10 days, not even joking. And fourth and not least, I do not in any means, shape or form of the word exercise. Heck, I hate walking out to my van parked outside my house everyday. I as I said, work at least 60 hours a week, sometimes pushing that closer to 80, and I am constantly on the go there, hardly ever even sitting down, and seldom do I have time for a break. Yes, I know that isn't the same as working out, I get that. But by the end of my day I am too tired, don't have enough time, and to be 100 percent honest with you, I don't want to. And as for drinking water, well, I absolutely hate it, and it makes my belly all crampy anyway, and again, I don't have time to be sick.

So, you add all those things up together and it's no wonder I live in a constant state of dehydration, which in turn, as most of you already know is the perfect combination for constipation. So, when my belly starts cramping up really badly, or I get nauseated, I know I have to take an enema, which given my chioces of food and beverage consumption or lack there of, including lack of exercise, clearly makes enemas for me medically warrented.

While I sometimes actually do enjoy them, key word there being sometimes, they are not something I plan for, look forward to, or get all that excited about, lol. Oh, and I forgot the 5th element, privacy. I never seem to have any of that either which makes enema taking a real pain in the ass, pun intended. lol.

If it's for constipation reasons the bulb is a good solution, as it's not much time consuming (15 minutes). For a full enemas, 2 hours seem a long time; one hour is enough to enjoy a nice enema, but of course during that time, you need total privacy.

My introduction to enemas at age 5 was due to constipation, but Mom told me that she was about ready to start me on regular enemas anyway, a practice in which she strongly believed. From then on I got enemas every weekend, and of course, whenever I was sick.

For a while, when I was 8, I was on a med that made me constipated. To combat the problem Mom never skipped giving me enemas for more than a day - most evenings I got 2 SSEs and a rinse before my bath. An exception was often on Friday when she had a thorough cleanout scheduled for me the next morning.

These days constipation is not much of a problem as I take enemas almost every day, mainly for fun and enjoyment. But, sometimes, constipation rears its ugly head, especially when I am traveling and have odd schedules and am eating poorly. Of course, it's an enema to the rescue!

For the constipation is enema the best solution. First enema I got when I was 21. Then I started to use the enemas always when I was costipated. Now I use more often 5 ml of pure glycerin. It is quicker and helps well too but it is a question if 5ml of glycerin the enema or liquid suppository is.

I have probably only taken less than 6 enemas to try to find out if they are enjoyable or sexy (sadly they aren't hitting the right buttons for me). I have taken a far greater number for constipation while I was pregnant (with both of my kids). Bowels just wouldn't do what they were suppose to (tried prunes and prune juice but no help there). Enemas cleaned me right out.

Many of us here probably got their first enema or suppository as a child because of being constipated. And I'm guessing didn't like it very much. But obviously something changed over the years. I still take enemas for constipation because they work quickly and very effectively. Much better than taking a laxative, when you never know when it will start working. I believe one should get right to the heart of the problem. OR in this case the BOTTOM of the problem!!!!

Until last week I never needed an enema for constipation, only for fun. It sure got things moving and I felt much better. Would happily take one for constipation should it happen again.

Can someone tell me the best thing to put in my enema to get a really through cleansing, nothing harsh or painful though

Thx

Geoff, there are many recipes for the kind of enema you are asking about but the gold standard in hospitals and other medical settings is the sse: In two quarts, (liters), of water at 108F, allow a bar of Ivory soap to soften until the solution is milky. Administer between 105-108F with client in Sims or diaper or knee-chest position. To make a more stimulating enema you can add two tablespoonfuls of Epsom salt per quart of warm water. Be sure that the crystals dissolve before you try to run this through a tube!

You can also try this for a very stimulating enema that is not very irritating: In a shotglass of very warm water with 1/4 tsp of baking soda dissolve, place several, (2-4), bisacodyl, (Dulcolax), tablets and let them turn to a powder. (You may need help for the rest of this.) Mix the bisacodyl powder into 500ml of warm water and administer to client. Immediately refill the bag with warm water and administer 1500ml of water. If the client takes the first 500ml in the knee-chest position and then takes 1000ml of the water, have them roll onto their right side. This will move the bisacodyl high in the colon. All of this has to be done rather rapidly, before the bisacodyl kicks in. If you get the solution high into the colon the action will begin within 10 minutes and flush the colon well.

With one of the ladies I "help" the enema is strictly for constipation and utterly clinical in nature. In fact, one day she wrote her shopping list while she was filling. I have to hide my arousal - if she ever realised how much I enjoy giving her enemas she would never let me do it again.

You never know Aussie John.....the lady you "help" with her constipation problems may be enjoying her enemas more than you realize, which is why she keeps having you come back to take care of her "problem". Perhaps she's shy, or just being coy.

I've used the enema bag many times for constipation and do enjoy getting relief from constipation with an enema.

Enemas are the course of action in my home also

For constipation I think smaller increments are helpful.

I never get constipated but that does not keep me from having nice warm, gentle enemas. I find them to be relaxing, and coffee enemas to be energizing. They contribute to my feelings of well-being.

I have been constipated many times due to either not eating right or just holding off from going for too long. When i was younger i was given enemas by my dr and family to try and help me go, considering i had not been going for a week or 2 weeks. Most of those constipation type enemas were pretty painful as I was already holding a lot inside and then trying to hold more on top of that but I was relieved when i got to go to the loo.

Plain water enemas always seem to do the trick for me when i get a little back up from time to time.

In my home enemas are always used for constipation. Sometimes castor oil precedes the enemas but the laxative is always followed by a series of enemas.

Well when I take regular enemas, I don't have a chance to get constipated, but if I do get constipated I will surely get out the bag. However, I take enemas for the fun of it, not the medical aspect of enemas.

I use to get cosntipated often and enemas do a great job for me.......

How much people on this thread drink enough spring water during a day, and all the year long ?

I have the same question about fruits ( 3 to 5 ) by day, and vegetables ?

I would know the percentage of real constipation due to other reasons than a deficient fooding in fibers ?

I take them mostly for constipation and when I have a bad cold, I have experienced bouts of severe constipation my entire life and a warn soap suds enema gives me instant relief and makes me feel better as well as when when I suffer with a heavy cold.
