Large Volume Enemas

It seems to be some sort of contest about volume--I have never quite understood it like most things about us humans--we are all a little different from each other--and that includes the volume and condition of our colons when I first started using enemas it was about feeling better--then I discovered it was also a pleasure---then I discovered I really liked it now after 40 some years an enema session is a great big time of pleasureful health giving fun--I use a favorite colon tube and whatever volume works and thats pretty much it my current gal pal knows all about it and is just not interested---and thats ok --because we have one hell of a lot of fun together in lots of other ways

life is to live---just go do it---

I've never tried more than 3 qts at one time. And didn't really enjoy that. 2 qts works for me and i can easily retain it for pretty much as long as i want to.

Of course, it's not the volume for me but the recipe. Any soapy enema wants to push out faster. Baking soda/sea salt lets me retain easily.

Some of these posts sound like we should have the enema olympics!

I don't know how you folks do it. If I do a couple 1 quart clean outs I can sometimes get 2 full quarts in. I can't hold it very long though. I would assume it's 2 quarts. All I have is one of those drug store red bags.

Can take 2 qts easily and sometimes can work up to almost 3 qts but hard to hold for more than 5 minutes/

I can take and hold two(almost)three quarts comfortably. I go kinda slow at first then unclick the clamp a lil more till I cramp, stop and take a few deep breaths then go some more till the bag empties. changing positions like laying on my side, bending over or laying on my back seems to help alot.

About four q.ts, usually I take from 3 to 3 and half q.ts

I can see my belly getting larger at about 1 1/2 quarts, but it became rather sexy at 3 quarts. I like long time retention walking around home. Standing is best position for see a good distended belly.

I can occasionally do a gallon of normal saline on the first try if I am really empty with no gas. That is the exception, not the rule. Just finished one 😃

I have a 3 qt bag. I do a 3 qt enema always.most of the time

my wife who by the way never takes but does give to me. Some-

times she will fill the bag again and at least will give me 2/3rds more. wow what a climax

I generally start with a 3 quart cleansing enema, usually lying on my left side. I can then take about 3 1/2 quarts lying on my back, or knee chest, or lying on my left side. My next enema is 4 quarts, lying on my back. I usually need two of those before I can take more. The greatest volume I have ever taken using this procedure is 5 quarts, lying on my back in the bathtub. I recommend doing this in the tub, because you will probably have an explosive expulsion while getting up. If you feel any pain other than the pressure you should normally experience, STOP immediately.

Your colon is about 5 feet long, (somewhat longer in women), and can theoretically stretch to 3 inches in diameter. That works out to about 6 1/2 quarts. BUT, your colon is not usually completely empty, even after cleansing enemas. Either this is BS or the people involved had unusually long colons. BTW, the pressure would tremendous. I have managed to take 5 quarts but that required a series of enemas working up to the 5 quarts, and I have done that VERY few times.

I used to occasionally feel nausea and some cramping during expulsion if I took a 3 quart cleansing enema. It was usually caused by gas in the intestines.

For me, a comfortable maximum is 3-4 liters. High-volume enemas are an "acquired" taste, and take some time to develop. GO SLOWLY! There is a little pressure, but any real pain is a good indication of a "NEVER EXCEED" limit. We all have our line-in-the sand, so to speak, so expect to reach a certain "maximum limit", whatever that may be for you. For safety sake.

I enjoy the thrill of the sight of that large bag and the thought of getting all that water in my ass. I often wondered if I could possibly pop a hole in my colon as I get older as my last colonoscopy showed diverticulosis pockets. Don't want that to happen as I enjoy enema's too much to let them do me in. Dont try the 4 quart to often but its fun to try, most of the time it's 3.5 qts when I stop. Now I want to try just thinking about it.

I've tried 4 quarts at times, but like you say its always just after the third that I struggle to take in any more. I've maybe managed 4 about 3 times and yeh it felt awesome, but really its only 3 quarts I limit out at.

I have found that if I work up in 1 pint, 1 quart, then 2 quart then 3 quart increments its much easier. I also find that controlling the flow, so that it slows as the volume increases helps me.

I did once unintentionally take 4 quarts but that was cos I built up to it and then when it was going in I lost my balance and couldn't get to the control to stop the remains going in. Unfortunately the body rejected it too quickly and I spent a few hours cleaning in the bathroom there after!!!

Be warned!

Normally my limit is 2 Qts but occasionally I can take three if cleaned out properly. Usually one soapsuds and two saline 2 quarters will allow me to take three but by then I'm usually satisfied and don't need the three quarts.

I tried 4 qts was to uncomfortable for me. My regular session is a 2 qt soapy one then at least 2 soda 2 qt rinses. Every once in awhile I'll do a 3 qt rinse. As far as I,m concerned the 4 qt is history.

How large of an enema is really needed to relieve constipation. I would think filling the lower 1/3 of the colon would be more that enough. If you have been constipated for a long time how far up does the blockage go? I realize I have not assigned any values to the variables so you tell me how bad it is and what it is going to take to fix it. Any thoughts?

Not constipated but would still enjoy an enema --- Fred

If someone (an adult) is genuinely constipated, I would do a series of three enemas to clear out the colon.

I'd start with one pint, let her expel, then two pints, expel, then four pints.

That should really clean out anybody without causing undue cramps or pressure. Holding the enema for more than a few minutes is not necessary.

Bags and cans traditionally were 2 quarts (liters) in size, and that amount was recommended for a good flushing out of the last 2 feet of the adult colon. I think many of us built to that level from the pint enemas we might have been started with as toddlers.

But regardless of amount, we were always assured we were being given "just a little one," right, LOL?

A pint enema will usually clear a constipation blockage but that is no fun. Susie if absolutely correct. Go for the big ones for a complete clean out. However one time a took and a 2 quart enema and the return was clear and with no lumps. It took a second and third to do the clean out.

I tend to take a few smaller enemas when i'm constipated, until i feel better. if after taking 2-3 i don't feel better i will take a large one and try to retain that as long as possible.

The max I haver taken is 3 liters. But that's only after a 1 liter soapy enema, followed by a 2 liter isotonic enema. Then I wait about an hour and can take 3 liters of tap water, using 3 tbsp of baking soda. I also find that using warmer water (about 108 F) helps to relax the colon so that I can take more.

I'm interested in the amount of HEAT developed in this discussion! stevesmith, does it bother you that some of us like large volume enemas? If so, I'm sorry we upset you!

Or are you like me, sensitive to and repelled by lies, hearsay passed off as fact, incidents (and words) falsely attributed to various people? I could add half truths (bits intentionally left out), mixtures of genuine stuff with lies or speculation, etc. etc. It all stinks: Moses summed it up tersely as 'false witness.'

One of the things I like least online is that the 'news' is usually just urban legend that must be checked against sites like snopes.com. I alomst never forward anything (especially appeals) I receive for that reason.

But I like large enemas! My normal sequence of enemas is a 4,5 litre seawater enema delivered with a bucket and siphon plus homemade inflatable nozzle of 800 ml capacity. The nozzle is detachable from the hose and has anon-return valve in it. I leave it in while I hold for fifteen minutes and expel over 25 minutes. This gets even the 'mud' from the caecum (= cecum, US) out of me, plus all the wind. Then I use seawater diluted: 1 part in 5 of plain water for a rinse. I fill my 5 litre bucket with this, plus a reserve 5 litre bucket also full. When the first bucket is about 3/4 empty, I pour in as much of the reserve as will go in before going to lie in an empty tub. This is a precaution against leaks! The rinse is roughly isotonic and almost entirely non-irritating. Because there is no gas left in me and the colon is pretty relaxed after the first enema, there is no cramping at all.

I'm not young any more and I've been doing enemas for many years. I almost certainly have a degree of acquired megacolon (which bothers me not at all); so I don't expect many others are where I'm at. And that's OK - I'm not looking for disciples!

I like to feel full distension before I let go - to know there are no folds of colon still folded and concealing waste I'm trying to get rid of; and this can be any time after about six and half litres. Usually, however, it is 7-8 litres: very occasionally a bit more. I did this on Thursday night and it was GRREAT!!

Johnny

I can hold 3 liters for few minutes. I've try 4 and was a bit in pain. I would like now to try more, as punishment ?

I have managed 4 qts on a few occasions but only after a few soapy cleanouts first. Then I went to the colon tube attached to my gallon silicon bag. I prefer to do only about 3 qts on most occasions. That I can do without the colon tube.

3qt is the max i can take and that after a couple of 2qt ones

wife has held 4qt befor after a couple of 2qt ones. really got her belly big .

I can usually take 4 quarts fairly easily. It took me years of practicing before I could do it and hold it for any length of time. I kept at it and finally got the hang of it. I remember the first time I was able to take 3 quarts and that was a real milestone at the time.

I used to do this before I purchased a 4 quart bag years ago. I bought it from Klystra and for me anyway, is worth the price. What makes using 2 bags easier is to purchase a plastic "Y" connector. You can purchase these for several dollars from Klystra along with all sorts of other stuff. If you've never checked them out, please do because they have great gear. The company was based out of Hawaii for years but George, the owner is now in his 80's so his daughter and son-in-law in California are continuing the business. Check them out. Barry.

This past Sunday I was feeling ambitious, and after an intial 2 litre, went for a 4 litre plain water enema.

A couple of hours later, again I managed a 4 litre plain water enema - haven't felt so empty, yet so good.

The most I have taken is 2qts at once . I think if a person had a parner to help and encurage , one could hold more . I would like to have that happen to me someday. Maybe someday!!!! Vermeer

When I was in my early and mid teens I would give myself very soapy (Ivory) enemas and try to take as much of the 2 quarts as possible. Several times, either because I just took too much or because I had used too much soap, I did vomit while expelling the enema. Somehow I both hated the vomiting and actually liked it just a little to have it "coming out of both ends." And I certainly felt empty afterwards and often quite hungry very soon. Haven't done that since though, even after a large, soapy enema.

Once clean, I can easily hold 4 qts.

Having said that, there is no competition or award for the MaxiVolumizer! I don't think the title would increase your gonadal mass either!

If you take several hours, you can take larger volumes - some of it will leave your body as piss.

Also, I suspect body size matters. Someone who is 6 foot 6 with a massive belly is going to be able to take more than a 4 foot 6 girl.

That said, if anyone is willing to take a high volume enema on web-cam, I'd like to see it.
