Does A Standing Enema Help With Expulsion

I was just wondering if taking an enema (2qt) while standing help with expulsion in terms of getting it out faster?

I have found that an enema while standing is sometimes more challenging to hold for very long. I assume it relates to gravity inasmuch as the solution flows uphill and distension/peristalsis tends to push things down and out. That is why it is necessary to hold the bag a bit higher in order to overcome the pressure. I believe there is a point that things can change. It may well be when the colon turns and runs back across the abdomen. If one fills to that extent, the weight of the solution may change the colon's position inside of the abdominal cavity. This might actually make expulsion a little more difficult.

For the most part, a standing enema is likely to be expelled quicker and easier unless one injects a larger volume.

To get the best effect, you don't want the expulsion to be all at once. You want the first round to take 20 minutes or so. Later rounds expel quicker.

Navi DOES want it all out faster.

A standing enema won't necessarily help you get it out faster. What will help get it out faster is moving around and changing your body positions.

I think the head down, ass up position is much better than standing up. You're are fighting gravity. After getting one you can stand up to try and get it to come down and walking around does help.

There's nothing quite like taking a full bag standing in the shower while under the spray and expelling. After a bag of of soapy water and glycerin then a bag of salty water (at least 3 qts.) I would fill up with my gallon bag and while showering hold it until I just had to let it out. Exquisite🚀

Sometimes I take the enema standing but I lean over onto the counter on my elbows. I take it with a slow rate and I can rub my belly. When ready to expel I just sit down and let it go. My bathroom is setup with the sink is across from the john

Don't think it's any faster in expelling, but because I worry about about an accident, I've started taking them standing. I make the water fairly warm, and hang the enema from the shower bar. I take only about six seconds of water, then disconnect and move about for a few minutes. I will re-insert several times, after clearing the cold water from the hose, to take small doses of the enema until I feel the urge to expel. A little strange, I suppose, but its' been working pretty well.

With time short and privacy limited, I have recently taken a number of enemas as part of my shower routine. I only have been using plain water filling the bag with the shower water until full and then hang it on a high hook. I then take my normal shower getting squeaky clean and use soap as a lubricant pushing a soaped finger up my bottom a short ways getting less than normal lubing. After expelling the air from the enema hose and the warm water starts coming out, I close the clamp and insert the nozzle high up into me and release the clamp. I then continue showering although I direct nozzle spray to pleasurable areas as I quickly fill up while standing upright. The bag is high up so the fill is pretty quick. I then shut the clamp, remove the nozzle and disconnect the hose from the bag and open the clamp to drain the last few drops of water from the hose. I then hang bag and hose on lower hook to drain and dry off (rather quickly I might add), and then have a most satisfying expelling of the nasties from my system with the overhead exhaust fan or heater on. I seem to get a really good clean out without members of the family knowing I have had an enema. Afterward I put the enema bag that has dried sufficiently afterward. Denise

In my experience standing is the way to go if you want it fast. But you should take the following into consideration:

First.

The faster you push water in, the less colon stretches and accommodates to volume. The less it stretches, the more it resists water and pushes it out.

So the flow should be fast. Preferable with syringe or Higginson pump.

Moreover, doing it in warm shower will tend colon to relax and push water out slowly.

Second.

If water will reach traverse colon, it will stay there longer.

So the volume should be relatively small. Abount 1.5 liters in my case.

Third.

The solution should be irritating. The simplest case - relatively cold water (20-30C = 70-85F).

Fourth.

Expulsion using something like Squatty-Potty will also help.

Prepare for the fact that doing it that way is uncomfortable and unpleasant. But this method is relatively good for fast cleanout in urgent situation.

I have found that kneeling on the floor with my knees apart is my best position for receiving an enema. I lean forward against the sink counter and let my belly hang out as I fill. Then I can easily back onto the toilet to discharge. if it’s only a quart or a quart and a half I hold it for awhile
