Best enema syringe for travel

When you travel now, do you take an enema syringe with you - in case? Also, when you were young, did mother take equipment all by, in case it was needed on the trip or holiday?

Based on your experience, what type of equipment is best and most convenient for travel.

We do not take an enema bag with us when traveling light, or if traveling with children (impossible to use it discreetly).

We have sometimes taken an enema bag "just in case" - reference to an early trip in the US when we stopped at a drugstore to buy a bag for immediate use, which is not an option in Europe.

We use a standard combination hot water bottle and enema, we put the hook, stopper, nozzles and hose in a bag in the suitcase.

If traveling light, I pack 2 "standard" 1500ml disposable enema.

Why 2, in case I get "lucky" and find a willing partner.

If I am going more than a couple of days I also pack a 4qt clear silicone bag with a couple of nozzles

I pretty much travel with my enema equipment whenever I leave home. I will bring sex toys and enema equipment and this is with or without my wife in tow. So I really don't have a downsized enema travel kit. I prefer to use what I use at home. It is no problem to pack it. When flying, I always pack my enema gear in a checked bag so I don't have to hold my breath and hope I don't inspected when going through X ray security check-in.

So when traveling, I don't leave home without my enema gear.

I travel to Europe and Asia on business for two weeks at a time. I take a 1500CC clear disposable bag as space and weight are at a premium. A funny side story, one time pre-911 I had a bulb syringe in my carry-on. The security lady checking baggage asked it I had a light bulb in my luggage. I told her it was a personal syringe. She just gave a slight smile and said OK.

I haven't yet but am considering it going forward. On my last big trip I had a bad couple of days - stress+change in eating led to my bowels going on strike. I should have seen that coming. I had brought fiber and some Dulcolax, and it wasn't exactly working the way I expected. I guess I could have tried mag citrate, but the last time I used that it didn't even start for 8 hours, then went on for a while.

I wouldn't bring my "permanent equipment", as it's bigger and heavier than I need, also more expensive if the airline loses something. Not sure if I would go with one of the compact 1500mL units or take one of the Siliconenozzles 3-quart vinyl bags (or even an EZ-EM type) and re-use for all my trips. Probably the latter because sometimes 1500mL just isn't enough (even though it really should be).

My best enema device for travel is Klystra 2,5 liter combination syringe.

When traveling, I will sometimes pack a bag and other toys. Many times, I've waited until arriving and simply purchased one of the cheap $5 bags from the local walmart.

They, the bags from Wal-Mart work fine.... They will put that lovely water where it is supposed to be, 99% of the time for some, but for me... They do it 100% of the time!

I used to have a Faultless Folding Syringe. The kind with the thin yellow latex bag and a white pouch to keep it in. They don't last long, usually tearing out around the hanging grommet, and are hard to find now. Maybe because they are latex? Anyway, now I have a disposable 1500ml bag. It is small and if contaminated or damaged they at only a couple of bucks to replace.

I have never tried to take an enema on the road. I have taken several the morning after getting home>

Too much risk of being in embarrassing situations at the airport for my taste. I can wait to go back home.

When we go to mom and dads we take our bags because we stay in the guest house. Nobody bothers us there.

I can remember my mom and aunt giving my cousin an enema when we went to visit once. My cousin had never had one nor did she even know what one was. I remember my aunt and mom telling her that it won't hurt. I think my mom brought her bag because she went in the guest room with a towel and came back out with the same towel and went into the bathroom my aunt and cousin were in.

When I was young my mother would just buy a Fleet Enema if I needed one. I didn't like them because they were so irritating.

We carried a kit a few times and the anticipation was terrific!

Mom had a special traveler kit. We lived way off the road and even the road was obscure. Grand parents had moved into town and kept a big garden. Mom liked to get tutoring from her mom. I think it was nostalgic for both of them. She would bring along her traveler just to get our attention, I think.

*Note to self...Don't Leave Home Without It!

I will often pack my Victoria combination syringe. It's nice to have a hot water bottle as well as the enema syringe with the bulbous douche nozzle. It works well for most contingencies.

I also have a red Davol Starlet folding syringe in my ditty bag or shaving kit. It folds up nicely and doesn't alert on x-ray machines.

Now and then, I will pack a disposable enema bag that is similar to those used in hospitals etc. They're not as sexy, but deliver an enema solution as necessary. They're also great for a coffee enema.

As kids there were those times while on family vacations one of us would become "distressed" yet think we were "safe" until Mom pulled out the family bag...a big two quart plus job. I remember thinking 'where the heck did that come from'. Yes Mom carried!

Today we do travel with a kit, usually the plastic Enteroclisma Enema Kit made in Italy. They are well constructed, have had them for years, and fit nicely in a small see thru (provided) bag. Have taken them in carry on and never had a problem. I switched out the nozzles and added an on/off (metal) clamp and its ready to go when needed.

During our annual summer visits to my aunt, Mom didn't need to pack enema equipment, knowing that if necessary she could borrow the irrigator can that closely resembled the one at home. I don't recall being on the receiving end, however. As comacta bag as possibility would seem to be the best choice now.

A Higginsons syringe or a Small Bulb Syringe is small and easy to pack.

I am traveling this weekend , for a coast to coast trip... First time checking my equipment. I am only a few years in to on and off enema maintenance but really like it. Long story short I will be taking my two quart generic red bag I have had for a while now, this is the standard kit one gets a wallyworld. There was a guy out here who had a post and images regarding the bag hole for hanging getting worn out, and mine was getting close, and the way to fix it, with a grommet set, well, that was a great idea, I got the grommet set today and my bag has a shinney new brass ring,, and she is ready to ride , well fly, and I am looking forward to getting a nice flush on the other side of the country, and maybe adding a toy or two if I find a cool shop out in portand.

Long flight and I am lucky to be going first class this trip,, I really don't have any butt plugs, and with TSA and all being a bitch, wondering if there is anything I might have handy to sit on,,, but not sure I really wanna go there, in case things got messy , that would suck...I recently had a prostate toy but tossed it, it was a aneros and was getting old . Sorry about my run on rant style, but I have the adhd and the meds to prove it, so any way kinky family, this is me..... take it our leave it,, Peace

ALWAYS pack it in checked luggage; never in carry-on. When X=Rayed, it would be assumed to be from a female used for douching. Most trips have been with wife, so no problem. If flying alone, pack it in checked luggage.

I recall a post from boxcar, where he packed a bag in his carry-on. The TSA agent looked at it and boxcar told him, "It's either this, or a colostomy". The TSA agent just said, "I understand that".

When traveling in the past, I've usually packed my four-quart white Klystra set in its zippered case. I like my new silicone 1.8-quart Seeking Health kit so much, I'll now be using it when traveling, mainly because of its smaller size and compactness. It'll lie quite nicely amongst my folded clothing. Customs agents and their cohorts can think whatever they like.

For short road trips, I don't recall Mom packing any enema equipment. For longer trips, such as vacations, she packed a pink folding syringe which held two quarts. It was actually a women's douche syringe, but we all know that the douche nozzle is best for enemas as well. Nowadays, Lisa takes her folding feminine syringe any time she travels, even for an overnight trip. But then, unless she's asleep in bed, Lisa most likely has an enema or its remnants inside her bowels.

Travels with the enema

As someone who travels a lot, and suffers from travel related constipation, let me respond to this post in rather a long winded manner, so please bear with me.

When we were first married, some fifty years ago now, I was using a diaphragm for contraceptive purposes, and the instructions then were to douche when removing it after use. For this purpose, I had a folding travel douche bag, made by the Italian firm Pirelli. It fitted neatly into a zippered pouch, about 9 inches by four inches in which it was supplied. It packed flat with bag, tubing and nozzles, and weighed very little. It was around the fourth or fifth day on our honeymoon, when for one reason or another, I was badly constipated, and so it was called into service, with the appropriate nozzle. It was easy and convenient to travel with.

At some stage in our first year of marriage, we obtained a Higginson syringe, which has always been my device of choice. I think that the first type of enema syringe that you encounter, is one you always have a soft spot for - in a manner of speaking. My childhood enemas, although few in number, were all delivered with this type of apparatus.

I think the Higginson is ideal for travel purposes. It is light, compact, fits into a sponge bag or pourch, is light and and packs reasonably flat. light. It also has the benefit that when used in a strange location, you do not need to worry about where and how to suspend a bag. The only real drawback that this type of enema suffers from, is that it is not always that easy to self-administer, but that is not, to my mind, a disqualifying factor.

When ever travelling for more than a few nights, I do pack the enema, as it is almost certain it will be needed. Change of environment, jet lag and meal times, as well as the state of public lavatories in airports and and aircraft are not conducive to regularity. Ironically, whenever I, either travelling alone, or with my husband, and I have not packed the enema, I have needed it. This lead to having to resort to Fleet's on two occasions whilst travelling in the US. I do however find these disposables unpleasant, irritating and not conducive to a feeling of complete evacuation and relief.

On the third occasion we left home without the device, we were in Europe, and purchased a syringe by a Swiss firm, branded as a 'Reprop' Enema. This is not quite a Higginson, and something more than a bulb, and is based upon a bottle as the container, with a valve to prevent back flow and injection of air. It comes with tubing and soft cannula type nozzles rather than the usual hard rubber or plastic ones. It is supplied in a zippered pouch, and also is very convenient and light for travel purposes.

Based on my experience, our Higginson is always the first choice, but that does mean that you have to find a container to hold the fluid for the enema. As the Reprop does not need a hook, a hanger, or a container, perhaps it is the ideal travel companion. However, I don't think that the are that easily available in the USA, but I have no doubt that a web search would lead to a happy outcome!

I also suffer from travel constipation. The first time that it happened I was not prepared but did have a douche bulb with the large banana type nozzle. I also did not have any KY with me. Took some time, but with the help of a lot of hand lotion I was able to insert it. It was so big I didn't have to worry about leakage. Because it was a bulb there had to be several insertions but it accomplished what I needed it to do.

Delia is spot on! Reprop is the ideal travel syringe or quickie enema system. They are available widely now on amazon, ebay and direct from their web site. The design is slick and simple with no reflux issues! And very easy to clean. Their parent website is www.reprop.de. I have never quite been sure whether its a German firm or Swiss-German firm.

I was a flight attendant for many years and on the vast majority of trips, I brought i basic red bag and douche nozzle. I didnt always use it, but sometimes the time zone changes just brought on bad travel constipation. We had the benefit of never really having our bags opened, even in the new security age, I never really cared that it showed up on the x-ray (even the TSA needs a thrill). There more than a few of us who traveled with our bags (men and women FAs, some pilots too). The biggest thing to get over is that for the most part you shared rooms on an overnight so you have to deal with a little less privacy than you'd like

I always take the clear vinyl 3liter enema bag from silicone nozzles . It takes up no room in the suitcase and does a great job on travel constipation. I used to take my big red 4 quart Sherema bag but I’m afraid that someone might not understand that it’s just a simple enema set.

Visiting mexico every year taught me to always bring enema equipment, just in case bowel issues arose.

I found the low cost disposable bags, always available on line are the best for avoiding being seen on the xray screen.

Ive watch my bag go thru many times and no hint of the bag shows up on the viewer.

You have to watch the size of lube you pack in your carryon however. That can get you a special search if over 3oz.

I also use the 3 liter vinyl Silicone Nozzles bag. Like @heidi2011 , I find it doesn’t take up much room and I like being able to get a good 3 l in. I also use that bag at home a lot just because it’s easy. When not traveling, it hangs in the bathroom closet always ready.
