I never did this, nor did I remember.

Sometimes I managed to hold 2 litres up to 30 minutes. However I always try to hold as long as possible... this is what nurses recommend, isn't it?

How long? Not long!

5 to 10 minutes is about perfect. I can do 10 minutes with baking soda, but if Ivory soap I'm lucky to get 5 minutes. Ivory gives a far better cleaning out, but baking soda is more comfortable.

For me it really depends on the kind of enema and the amount. There have been times I have given myself a smaller enema and never expelled it.

11 to 20. My mom insisted on 20 mins, so that's what I got used to enduring

I like soap in my enemas. I release better if I don't retain too long.

pierre67 6 years ago
Au moins 10 minutes

efun42 6 years ago
Five to ten minutes depending on how much water.

Xtrlvn4V 6 years ago
I try for longer than 5 but usually can't hold the urge too long. But been trying a little more longer each time. Only been at it for a year+.

Really depends on the type of solution and the temperture of the solution.

Recently back into the hobby thanks to a wonderful lady. A person can certainly get out of practice. I have to work on retention time and volume...grin...

klip 6 years ago
Less than 5 minutes unless it's a coffee enema which I hold for 20 minutes.

Buddy55 7 years ago
Average retention time for me is five to ten minutes. I set a timer for five minutes to give the Ivory soapsuds time to work on me and hold it in along as I can after that until the urge to expel becomes to great. Depending on how soapy the solution is sometimes I barely make the five minutes, other times it is closer to ten.

I hold mine until I have climaxed. Then it becomes almost virtually impossible to hold the water any longer and the urge to release becomes unavoidable. Sometimes I try for a 2nd orgasm, but it never works as the urge to purge becomes too great.

Usually between 5-10 minutes.

It depends upon the solution and volume. I can typically hold a 3.5 liter salt/bicarbonate for 30 minutes or more. Go to 4.5-5.0 liters, probably 20 minutes.

I hold enema until urge to expel too great to hold back

h2ocathman 7 years ago
For me, it depends on the size, regular 2 qt., I can hold it up to 30 mins. If I decide to go with 4 qts., I'm lucky if I hold it 10 mins.

Breaze 7 years ago
I just had my first 2 qt. enema. I think he had me hold about 10 minutes give or take...it's only my 2nd one ever.

tripacer150 7 years ago
10 to 20 min.

Ms-Strict-Sophie1 7 years ago
I like my play partners to hold for 10 minutes or up to 20 minutes when using plain water.
I also spank them and may also have them drink a glass of water!

Gs n Cs 7 years ago
Gs says depends on the formula...

Paulbiuk 7 years ago
5 mins or so is my usual and it works for me

Syringer 7 years ago
5 to 10 minutes when using plain water. Soapy enemas I can not hold that long.

Enemagal 7 years ago
11 to 20 minutes is my usual hold time for plain warm water Enema, as far as others, I can't hold a Fleet for more than 5 minutes!

flow-er boy 7 years ago
It depends on many factors, but I have found I can retain much longer if I do a clean-out enema first, usually just plain water, and then send in the solution of choice. I am not especially adventurous and stay with mild solutions. If I keep the volume at 2 quarts or below, I can often retain for well over 20 minutes.

Nummedal 7 years ago
It depends on the solution. I use plain water most, but I don't try to hold it longer than a few minutes. Plain water makes the bowel drink and it can drink too much. A better salt balance makes holding for a longer time possible, and that counts for urine, which I use second most and is easy to hold.

klip 7 years ago
When I take an enema I set the clip so that it delivers the solution very, very slowly. It often takes 15 or more minutes to take one and a half to 2 quarts. I do that for a couple of reasons. One, I want to prolong the pleasure of receiving an enema as long as possible. Another is I am not good at retaining an enema very long so my "retaining time" is accomplished thru the slow insertion.

PlayExams 7 years ago
I always have my ladies hold their enema , so they can feel the sensations it gives to them.

Johnson 7 years ago
20 minutes or as long as she tells me to hold it!

jimmyt44 7 years ago
Less that 5 min. My lack of internal sphincter muscles and radiation burns won't allow more time.

n/a 7 years ago
Usually I hold my enema for 5 to 10 minutes... for a soothing baking soda enema i will retain it as long as I can, which can be anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes.

GyneDoll 7 years ago
I'm normally good for about five to ten minutes.

n/a 7 years ago
It depends, if I am going solo or being given. Whilst I am getting an enema from my wife, the time can go on and until I am ready to release.
When I am doing a session on my own, the time frame for relase is always very short.

Frank01 7 years ago
Unfortunately all of my enemas are solo. I need encouragement for two things:
. 1. To hold longer and
. 2. To take larger quantities.

debgurl 7 years ago
Typically, I'll hold a "recreational" enema about 10 minutes. That gives me time to fully enjoy the sensations that enemas provide. If I'm taking the enema to relieve mild constipation, I'll hold it anywhere from 15 - 20 minutes...or as long as I possibly can.

Dr Marcus Welby 7 years ago
5 to 10 minutes of time is fine by me. I generally dont cramp, and will lay and linger in the moment of self-pleasure, and will add time because it feels so damn good...

DST 7 years ago
Anywhere between three to five minutes.

e fun 7 years ago
It varies, depending on the volume and how I feel at the time - very large ones are hard to hold but a couple of liters is fine for up to half an hour....

Sophia 7 years ago
Most often I set the timer for 15 minutes. Especially large or strong enemas I can only hold for a minute or two. On the other hand, I've been known to hold 3 quarts for more than an hour. And, when my husband holds one for sex, then that could be as much a gallon which he holds as long as needed, probably a half hour or so, but I don't time that.

gape 7 years ago
Like most everything I do in my life these days, it really depends on how I feel and what I am trying to accomplish. My decisions are usually spontaneous and geared toward pleasure and/or comfort. It also depends on whether I have an enemate with me at the time.

BigDaddy61 7 years ago
With the first cleansing enema, i try to hold it for at least five minutes

Cam Nma 10 years ago
I hold my first soapy water enema for just a few minutes, butt it's much easier to hold the 2nd and 3rd bags for longer periods of en-joyment.

LisaK 11 years ago
I always go for 15 minutes. That's long enough for Epsom Salt and Soapsuds to do their thing, but not long enough to get dangerous amounts of fluid re-absorbed sn a soapsuds-only enema.

fazzer 12 years ago
It depends on the volume of the enema. I can take huge volume, but I won't say here - just in case.

mike45 12 years ago
I always hold my enemas for atleast 10 mins. I have a watch so I time myself. If it's a 1qt coffee or green tea enema, I'll soak in the tub for an hour while I retain it. Of course after a 2qt soap amd rinse first.

Emom 12 years ago
I usually try for 10-15 minutes and that is enough time for it to work. My body is the best gauge and when it wants to let that enema out it tells me in no uncertain terms. Growing up I can remember how difficult it was to hold and on one occasion expelled too early which earned me another enema.

hackjuan 13 years ago
It truly depends for me. Sometimes just a few minutes, other times, it seems I hold it forever. No idea why? Just adds to the desire for my next one.

dennis4 13 years ago
It depends on the volume 2 qts 10 to 15 min. Gal 5 min Max

sarasenema 13 years ago
The longest Katie and I have been able to hold is 10 minutes, and that was extremely hard. But with our F3S inflateable nozzle, we've gone as long as 30 minutes during a punishment enema. God, the spanking usually is very painful but I think with the retention nozzle and holding for 30 mins. is actually worse. God it really hurts holding that long.
Sara

fredB 13 years ago
I try to hold it for 20 minutes but I usually have to go after 10 minutes. The second enema can always be held longer as can the third.

n/a 14 years ago
Usually about 5 mins is all I can hold ocassionally I hold 10 minutes if I am masturbating then when I ejaculate the sensation makes for an early release.

n/a 14 years ago
At 3 qts. Yes, it's hard for me, but 20 minutes was the most I ever managed. Without a butt plug that is.

tjk1542011 14 years ago
I try to hold it for 5-10 min. Sometimes I can do it

n/a 14 years ago
about 10 mins or so, then again it really depends on how much i get
if say half a bag prlly bout 10 mins if the whole thing bout 5 or so
if less then half more then 10

n/a 15 years ago
Warmed in the sun it must be quite cool. I find that its much easier to hold when its nice and warm.

n/a 15 years ago
I ticked 11 to 20 because its the closest to average, but it really depends upon the enema. A Fleet used to be almost instant, but sometimes now I can hold it for a quarter of an hour without too much trouble. A green soap is a bit more of a a challenge, especially if its a strong one or there's a lot, whereas a herbal tea held in place with a double balloon rectal catheter can stay there for half an hour or more.

Drew6006 15 years ago
i try to hold it for a min of 5 minute but no longer then 10

SmoothJazz53 15 years ago
I hold it until I cum. I do try to stretch the time with some edging but usually 5-10 minutes.

n/a 15 years ago
Usually about 5-15 minutes.

connie davis 15 years ago
I retain for about 5 to 10 minutes.
That seems to be more than adequate for me.
I think holding any longer would not be worth the wait.. same results, just more time. ;D

n/a 15 years ago
I usually use coffee for health reasons and it takes a while to get any good out of it. I always masturbate while holding it and I take my time. It's like reading a book or taking a drive, you have a goal but the process of getting to it is enjoyable too. Once I climax I'm very tempted to let it go (get that out of me!) but with a little discipline I get back to enjoying the pressure and cramps. I think the good feeling after a good enema is partly some endorphine response to the work-out your colon gets, so the more pressure and cramping the better you feel afterwards (no pain no gain)

elover 15 years ago
I usually take an enema series. I hold the first two quarts about fifteen minutes; but then I am able to retain the subsequent enemas for usually more than 30 minutes each. I like to lie in every possible position to get those enemas deep into my colon, to loosen up the build up on the intestinal walls. That makes for a healthy and very sensual enema. I like to give myself an enema in Yahoo Instant Messenger using my webcam with a viewer and hold the enema a long time while chatting and showing my bulging abdomen. ;) elover

mustang43 15 years ago
I can only hold for maybe 5 to 10 min's.

sub1tobe 15 years ago
It depends on the type of enema i am having. In the morning i try to hold my coffee enema for at least 20 minutes. Actually, i try to hold each coffee enema 20 minutes. If i am having an enema to clean me out i will usually hold it for 10 minutes.

supercrew1 15 years ago
5 to 10 min for me

n/a 15 years ago
since I'm solo,I don't usually hold it long as I have to be close to the terlet(!)asap!I can't stand laying on the hard floor and trying to get up in time so I don't make a new pattern on the carpet!

Frank1001 15 years ago
I normally hold my enemas for about 5 to 10 mins, at times longer but not always.

Funseeker 15 years ago
Usually only about 20 minutes or so. I have taken an enema and fallen asleep for a couple of hours.

n/a 15 years ago
an enema should be held inside as long as possible, and we all know the longer its held in.. the better the results :) I usually hold mine in for atleast 20 minutes.

Syringer 15 years ago
I can hold my enema no longer than 5 to 10 minutes.

mustang43 15 years ago
regular soapy enema, 5 to 10 miniutes, rinses 10 to 15, coffee enemas from 1 hour to 3 hours.....sometimes overnight with a coffee enema.

Win 15 years ago
I've found that about 20 minutes is the optimal time to get an effective cleanout.

jagson 15 years ago
I also like to quickly eliminate my enema so I can start the next one. But coffee enemas I like to hold for as long as I can. I usually take a pint and hold that awhile, then another pint on top of the first and hold it again and maybe the third pint, fourth etc. A smaller enema I can hold for a longer period than a large enema.

Great to see your photo Frank I have a similar set up with the black bag but I use a double inflatable on the end (Leaves the hands free for other things)

MissNaughtyNurse 16 years ago
With Doc's "help" I can hold it for about 5 or 10 minutes. But I actually don't like to hold it for more than a minute or two. I feel too full - I gotta go!

plnbrnwrppr 16 years ago
maybe 5 to ten mins unless its a "recipie" such as coffee then its a bit longer

SwitchableSusie 16 years ago
If I am doing the enema by myself, I hold it for a few minutes, unless I am also masturbating, which increases the retention time a bit. Occasionally, I will just lay back and relax with 1 1/2 or 2 quarts and my double balloon rectal catheter and hold it for 15-30 minutes, sometimes for an hour if I have the time, which I rarely do. If my husband and I are having enemas together, the retention time is usually however long it takes to have an orgasm and for the afterglow period to subside.
If the enemas are purely for cleansing, I generally hold it for a minute or two and release and take another one. My feeling is that repeating an enema which is briefly retained is better than holding one for a long time.

knorris 16 years ago
I take occasional enemas for health and cleanliness more than physical pleasure, so I usually expell almost immediately after administration. I've experimented with various solutions to enhance the cleansing effect, and don't believe retention time has much to do with it.
Beides, why would you want to make the garbage your body intends to rid itself of easier to absorb by rehydrating it?

n/a 16 years ago
The longest that I can hold is usually five to ten minutes. That does not include the time that it took for the enema to be infused. I love my enemas.

roby 2400 16 years ago
Usually about 25-30 minutes.
