Be carefull with large volume enemas

I've been an enema afficianado since my teens. Started enjoying larger amounts in my 20's (up to 3 quarts). When I convinced my wife to give me enemas, I was able to take even larger amounts of 4 plus quarts.

A few years ago I was holding almost 5 quarts and was massaging my abdomen when I had a strange feeling . A bulge started on my lower belly. I immediately released the water and was able to push the bulge back in. Over the next few days it bulged a few more times. I went to a medical supply store and bought an elastic truss to help hold it in. It sort of worked for a while, but I finally had to see my doctor.

He referred me to a surgeon and he was able to repair it, but it was serious surgery. The hernia had dropped down to my scrotum. A little scary and lots of pain for a while. I haven't lost my enjoyment of enemas, but it has been a slow and careful return. My advice to everyone is that you don't get carried away with high volume. I was lucky--things could have been much worse.

The old axiom, "everything in moderation" is a good one to follow.

Ouch Buster! Thank you for your story of caution. I hope that you recovered quickly and that your wife did not feel responsible. I am afraid if I was to be in her shoes I would be hovering over you during every enema.....which would most likely suck the enjoyment out of the entire experience. Wishing you and your wife well!!

Long time enema user here. Volume and pressure are serious issues to consider when enemas are involved. I hope that everyone can learn from Buster's experience. As always, I urge everyone to play safe out there.

A little caution always with those high volume. I have learned to give my self a little time between the cleansing/rinsing enemas and the higher volume with the longer tubes. That way things have a chance to settle a little and there's less chance of someething being left in there. If one is planning a four quart high colon enema, you don't want another half quart or so hanging around in there to add to the volume. As it has been said --- moderation.

I usually put about 1-1/2 to 2 qts in the enema bag for myself, and also others I give enemas to. Usually we take most of it, and even sometimes take all of it, but we dont try to push any further than it comfortable. The enema seems to work as well as if we tried to take a little more.

From what I read here and online, that doesnt seem as popular as taking more water than we do?

Good advice. I get tempted some times and have been lucky, so far.

^^^^ How do you know if you are taking too big an enema?

That little voice in your head tells you.

You know that voice. It's the voice that's telling you there's no voice.

THAT VOICE! Listen to it.

I have never had any ill effects from large volume enemas, but I am not saying anyone should go crazy with amounts. I think a good rule of thumb is if you have pain stop.

This is a scary story. I have often wondered how to tell when too much is too much. I heard a rule of thumb years ago that if the bag was not higher than about three feet things should be OK, BUT that does not speak to someone who might have a partial herniation, or have been other wise injured. So, how can you tell if something is unsafe? Any comments?

In 55+ years of giving myself enemas and being given them by others, I have only ever once or twice taken more than a 2 quart bag. I've been tempted but having tried to take more than 2 quarts on several occasions, I was never able to get more than 3 quarts in and that with some difficulty. Two quart warm water SSEs work very well for me and I see no need to push it.

The most I can take.......after a clean out.....is 2 qts............but its kinda scary to me........I prefer 1qt, and lots of masturbation. I guess Im afraid of doing some internal damage/rupture thing in the colon. That stuff is potentially VERY dangerous!!!!. Please dont try to be a volume king/queen. The kink is cool, but not worth the risk.

I stop at 2 qts. now or less and for me consider that enough. When young, teenager, I must have been up to almost 4 qts. (I think). I filled my mother's enema bag twice, it was one of the old red rubber ones. It must have held at least 1.5 qts. I guess, whatever, I was very full. As I've aged I stop at 2 qts., maybe less, I figure maybe as one ages it's easier for things inside to break more easily. I've also had a double hernia repair, so don't want to push it. Also, as I understand it, it's possible to get hernias in the lower abdominal groin area.

I agree with Switchablesusie. She always has good advise. I do my 4 and sometimes 5 quarts but do not push it over that. I get to a good distention look and let it go. As one of Clint Eastwood's characters said " A man has to know his limitations "

My comfort level peaks at about 2 1/2 quarts. Its also just the right volume for a satisfying cleansing enema AND the right amount of pressure for a good ejaculation. Beyond that amount, the discomfort begins for me. I have absolutely no interest in that whole large-volume-contest thing. The idea of a life-threatening medical emergency from enema play is a real turn-off.

Occasional use only is the best policy. the larger the enema, the more important to stick to that!!.

Most people can handle 2 qts fairly easily and there is no real reason to do much more. Vary the amount of Dr. Bronners castile soap or other ingredients for more thrill but even then be cautious. Enemas are for pleasure and for bowel cleansing, but caution should always be a part of every enema session.

Not only would I NOT want a bursted bowel (for obvious reasons), but can you imagine explaining to the ER people what you had just done.......assuming you lived long enough to get there. Thanks, but no thanks. I'll keep my enemas on the reasonable size.

A timely and wise reminder that too much of a good thing is still "too much". What could be done with no fear when you're in your 20's and 30's doesn't necessarily hold true when you get into your 50's and 60's! Safe is a whole lot better than sorry. Sad, because I personally find the steadily and growing urgency, intensity and pressure from receiving a soapy, large-volume enema to be a truly delicious erotic experience.

Interesting post. It somewhat concerns me that my colon hydrotherapist does not see any danger in allowing her clients to gauge when they have had enough fill and need to release. I asked her if she measures how much water is being released into a client--2qts etc--and she replied that it differs client to client and that she relies on them to say when they need to release.

Anyone see danger in this approach?

The key here is to know ur limit,then measure every enema using a two quart kitchen measuring pitcher.

However,there are times,I may like to challange myself to take just a little more than yesturday,so ,I will add another few onces or so.

I started about 5-6 years ago in my early 50's. Began with a quart...then 2...typically I will take up to 4 but just seems I have always been naturally able to distend tummy, So I think that has helped with holding 4 quarts, sometimes even when not digested. Take on back mostly, then move to all 4's to help hold.

These days about 2.5 to 3 L is my upper limit and I always buffer it with either non iodized salt or baking soda. I figure that if I want more cleansing or to play longer I will expel most of the first enema, then enjoy taking in another enema of similar volume. I enjoy expelling nearly as much as filling, so it only enhances the pleasure!

Common Sense applies yet there's a desire to feel more that often causes us to make dangerous mistakes. Before cancer- I'd kept anywhere between 1-3 quarts in me at any span of time on average. with shorter spans of getting that fourth quart in and it hurting -or not- dependent on "how high" It went.. I often wonder how many of us have shor tor long large intestines as part of our capacity and how many of us are opening our cecal valves giving ourselves a small bowel enema while we are at this??

There's a lot of controversy about getting our ileocecal valves opened and even more debate over if it's a life saver or mortal danger to do it.. Me personally.. I see both healing and danger in balances.

In my mid-20's I'd been introduced to the ancient methodologies of juice fasting till essentially no solids are being passed- thence using enough saline enema to literally end up vomiting it back up.

It's not a procedure to undertake lightly and it demands risk awareness plus a willingness to feel what many people call PAIN as opposed to what others of us call "intense sensations" from it. Defined as feeling nearly certain that it's going to be a full gut busting and nausea plus a whole body shaking that is followed by an almost beyond orgasm endorphin rush.

AFTER such a bottom up to mouth reverse flushing- I feel half my weight .for days and also am quite confident that I'm going to be clean for deep toy play til I start eating again. Detoxing from Chemotherapy was complicated by not wishing to strain a resected colon so I've not done a fraction of the large volume distensions I'd done pre-cancer.

After several years post surgery? Dunno if I ever will risk more than that third quart unless cold sober and carefully so. Low, slow, and gentle has been my enema life for the last few years. That said, I've been daydreaming of a rig using some sort of large capacity bottle with large diameter=low restriction hose&nozzle to allow for gentle large volume with low pressure and more importantly- a low resistance pressure backflow path. . It's my rig for my use only and being aware of needing to properly clean after such use goes with the scene.

Water cooler bottle with cut open bottom- neck fitted with same diameter tubing and nozzle crafted from whatever prototyping plastic is around. Bottle hangs from macrame plant holder type rig and suspended by block&tackle pulley so I can easily raise/lower bottle for flow comforts.

Needless to say this gets done on colema type board or in tub lest it become stupidly messy and the relaxation of no mess worry is an enhancement.

I fondly recall doing the pulley bit with some 3 quart "Barium Bags" years ago and damn it's a ride. Pushing uphill from an overfull bowel and relaxing to let it flow back works best after having done enemas and or juice fasting so no solids clot hoses etc. But it's a body-mind state of push-relax-cramp-push against the cramping flow that can be addictive for some of us.. It's a large volume variant that either works for us or not.

What a horrible thing to go through. Glad you are now ok.

I dont understand the need for more than 3 qts

I dont understand the need for more than 3 qts

It's all relative.

There are people who will tell you there is no need for more than TWO quarts.

Just know your limitations and capacity.

My maximum enema is 3qts ... any more than that and i don't enjoy the feeling of needing to vomit. There's nothing more mood killing to an erotic enema than a technicolor yawn because of too much enema. The hernia scenario Buster told about is also another mood killer. For me .. enemas are supposed to be enjoyed .. and not just endured.

This is not a competition, so why would I want to take more than 1,5 to 2 L? When I am close to 2 L it starts to feel uncomfortable and I would have to force it in, would I take more. So around 2 L seems to be my personal limit. I don't see any reason to go beyond that.

Gibby, I couldn't agree more....enemas are supposed to be be enjoyed...not just endured. Although I have a four quart bag, I rarely inject the full four quarts. When I feel full or have reached a certain level of sensations, I stop the flow and "live in the moment" regardless of the volume of solution that has been injected.

That's why I try to keep it simple and safe!

This makes me wonder about those who taken enemas with alcohol (generally a bad idea). Any thoughts? It would seem that could add to the danger, when and if there is a danger. And I'm wondering now, how you can tell when "enough is enough."
