Rinse after soap enema

This method sounds interesting having the bag fill with your expel and then letting it flow back into your colon. I have had this happen on a few occasions accidently but to actually drop the height of the bag so it can refill and then flow back into you does interest me. I will say that I do make a real effort to clean my bag and since it would have a dirty expel flow back into it is concerning at least from a cleaning perspective. The method sounds good but the clean up would need to be very thorough.

I have a shower enema system setup (see my profile for pics) that allows me to keep a colon tube inside me while the water is flowing in and out me- basically functions like an open colonic system. I can remain lying in the tub and do fills and expels for as long as I want until I am consistently expelling absolutely clear water. This actually takes about 45 minutes to an hour. Although I usually do only bag enemas or shower enemas, I might start with bag enemas and then switch over to the shower enemas for a complete rinse of the enema soaps.

Hmmm, something new to try.

Something I wondered about after all these years of taking soapy enemas and never rinsing - is rinsing really necessary? I don't appear to have had ill affects from not doing so... times when I tried, I found the rinse water would get stuck inside me and produce the dreaded dribbles...

Rinsing ISN'T necessary.

Was hoping for your advice, thanks!

Rinsing ISN'T necessary.

Agree. >50 years of enemas, many large ones up to 4-5 quarts held for up to an hour, many with Castile soap. Never rinsed a single one and never had any problems. I still love them, alone or for sex.

Sometimes it seems as though my colon might settle a little faster after a rinse, but it isn't too significant.

That's generally the experience I've had - it tends to be less uncomfortable in the immediate (since, well, doing another rinse), but more comfortable rather quickly after, as without a rinse, I find sometimes the cramping can continue....

Back when hospitals used SSE's, they never did a rinse.

I never rinse.

I think some do a rinse simply as an excuse to take another enema. Not judging. Just saying.

No judgement required. I strongly suspect you are absolutely right. Maybe I should start rinsing now too, just for fun. ???

Rinsing isn't really necessary, but if I am doing a series of enemas I will always start with a soap enema and follow it with one or two saline enemas. I have found that if I do just a castile soap enema it does leave me with the feeling of needing to expel or have a BM for a couple of hours after the enema. If do the saline enemas after the soap enema, that feeling is greatly reduced and I my colon seems to be in that chill zone of calm and quiet.

I've had warm soapywater enemas since 1959. Never any rinse enemas. No side effects.

Though I agree that rinsing is generally not necessary, my preference is to rinse after a "standard" soapy enema in order to stop the stimulus reaction of the soap with my colon muscles. It is much more of a necessity with a soap and/or glycerin enema above certain strength limits. I have likened the rinse more like a "stop bath" in the "old" photographic wet chemistry methods. A rinse with saline or baking soda enema will generally result in a nice calm colon after the rinse.

It had been a while, but I have used the reversing flush method of rinsing highlighted in a previous post below where I have filled myself with a soapy enema, held it for some period to work and to soften and dissolve the contents in my colon, drained that enema and then used the fill and purge method with a separate enema bag full of water (usually an isotonic solution). There are several things required (as noted). First, the bag must be raised and lowered to allow the enema to flow into and then back out of the colon. I like using check-valves for one direction flow and the check valves must be removed from the line to allow two-way flow. And because the bag is being used to collect and then reintroduce the enema solution, the bag, hose and other components must be cleaned after use. But it also allows the effect of multiple enemas without actually having to remove the nozzle or to manually refill the bag with a fresh enema solution.

Any reason to get another enema is just fine with my sub. Whether it is a rinse after a soapy enema or second enema period. Soap can sometimes sit in his belly a bit uncomfortably.

Spoken like a true klismaphiliac or a Domme in control of his enema intake! I'm glad you two can enjoy each other so much with the benefit of rubber clothes and enemas. Have at it and play safe. My Switch Domme ex and I used to be a lot like that. Maybe I'll be lucky and meet another good partner.

ER,

I used to use Stop Bath back in the 60's when I did some film developing and printing. Good analogy. What do you consider your standard soapy enema - the soap concentration or preparation method? And what are the upper and lower soap and glycerin concentrations you use?

My colon is so sensitive that I need to keep the Castile soap down to at most 1.5-2 tsp/quart and the glycerin below about 10%, but I'm sure yours and most peoples are much stronger than mine. I still only think about a rinse when the soap gets to the upper levels - I've never needed to rinse at 1-1.5 tsp /quart Castile soap. Thanks.

I have talked to several people who had enemas from mom that were soapy and not one of them ever got a rinse. I know my mom gave several siblings Ivory enemas and I don't remember a second enema in any of them and she was a nurse. I just think it wasn't done.

Never got a rinse as a kid. Imagine that my mom would have figured she had had enough of a fight getting the first one in. Started rinsing as an adult when I saw it as an option.

At least I didn't use the concept of "fixing solution."

Using measuring spoons and knowing their metric equivalent, a teaspoon is approximately 5 ml and a tablespoon is just shy of 15 ml. A "standard soap solution" using liquid soap is 10 ml per liter. 15 ml per liter (roughly a tablespoon per quart) starts getting a bit strong. With Ivory it is typically 10 gr/liter. With glycerin addition, I tend to limit the glycerin to 10% (mixed). The variable mix glycerin is probably the most interesting enema I've used (10% glycerin on average, but 100% glycerin on the bottom of the bag, layered with a soapy enema solution on top and using my rectum as the "mixing chamber" once the 100% glycerin portion had slowly flowed down the tube and coated my rectum.

It's not unusual for a pint or so of water to stay behind and come out a couple of hours later.

If you want to rely on that,, a couple of ways you can go.

One is to take a heavy dose of Milk of Magnesia between the second and third rounds.

Another is once you are at that clear return, take a bottle of Magnesium Citrate

Ah, yes - the dreaded dribbles! Oh, and they really are, especially if you are active go outside the house to walk, shop... I think in my case because I've always used soap, I've become soap-tolerant; meaning I need the soap to produce a reaction.
