Safety | The Retention of 4 Quart Enem…

A number of members of this Forum have claimed to regularly take enemas of 4 quarts and to retain them for as long as one hour.

As a long time sufferer of IBS, I find that taking in 4 quarts is difficult enough to achieve, without having to hold this large amount for longer than a few minutes. I take this at night and I find that aiming for a full gallon, which I don’t always achieve on the first try, gives me the most lasting relief from my symptoms of bloating and painful cramps during the next day.

I feel that even for those who don’t have IBS, holding a full gallon with or without a balloon retention nozzle for one hour, must take a lot of practice and considerable willpower.

I would be very interested to know what motivates anyone to endure the discomfort of such a large volume enema for so long.

I know that some mothers have expressed how proud they are when their children have held 2 quart enemas for ten or fifteen minutes. Perhaps these children when they become adults experience a sense of achievement when they have exceeded their childhood volumes and retention times?

It has often been claimed that the retention of full enemas for as long as possible, can produce results at home which are equivalent to professional colonic irrigations. Is a more thorough cleansing the motivating factor for these experienced enema users?

(Note: IBS sufferers are known to have abnormally low serotonin levels.)

For those who do not have IBS, I know that the distension of the colon walls will increase the serotonin levels, which can lead to a feeling of euphoria and pain reduction. Some enlightened neurologists have recognized the benefits of colon cleansing in relieving the symptoms of migraine headaches and depression. Perhaps these effects are the main motivating factor for those who enjoy holding these full enemas for one hour?

I have IBS and a little over a week ago the wife knew I was not feeling well and she asked if I would like to try a enema with the 2qt bag with some salt in it I said ok.

I did the bag slowly it took about 20 minutes and retained it for 15 minutes and then went to the toilet a massive amount came out it smelled like death in there (sorry for being graphic ) (bag 1)

I had a feeling that it was going to be a long enema night and I was really not in to it that evening.

I went back to bed and she came back in with another bag (bag 2 )and told me to do another till I was cleared out I said ok.

After that one It was pretty clear and I felt better then she came in again and you need to do this one (bag 3) we are going to try something a little different I rolled my eyes at her and said ok

Near the end she poked her head in and told me to finish it and leave the nozzle in.

She filled that damn bag up again and told me to take it all and and hold it for 10 minutes if I could.(bag 4)

I just took a 4 qt enema and held it all.

I did and I swear I was in the bathroom 20 minutes.

After about 15 minutes of watching tv I realized I felt better than I have in years

For a week my bathroom times were normal like a person without IBS then last night I started feeling sluggish so we repeated what we did last week.

It gave me kind of a sexual rush hard to explain while holding the 4 quarts and after going to the bathroom and I told her about it and she laughed

She asked if want to try this once a week for a while and see how it goes and I said yes

Kind of awkward but my Dr is a friend of mine and I called him at home this morning and he said it is safe but make sure I'm cleaned out good before the 4 quarts go in and salt water only and no tap water and if it's any bit painful Stop and no more than 4 quarts on the last cleanout, but he was glad I was feeling better.

Glad you found a way to feel better. So you had this series of therapeutic enemas that you then noticed gave you a sexual rush. I gather you had never felt anything sexual with earlier enemas? Did this lead to anything with your wife? Does she now give you enemas as part of your sex life? Did you talk to her about letting you give her enemas?
