Douching

No I never douche because it is just not good for you and it can upset the balance of bacteria in your vagina.I just get my husband to give me a little rinse just inside my hole with his fingers when we have a shower together. I feel fresh when he does that and I think it is more fun than douching must be as well.

Even tho I know its not necessary and can upset your natural balance I still do douche occasionally when my period has been long and erratic . To answer wannabedocs question , while I dont get aroused douching myself nor never had a lover do so I think it could be intimate and an added part of exam play that would get me going in that setting . 😉

I douche at the end of my period sometimes. I also douche occasionally after sex if I'm going out somewhere. I haven't had any problems as a result of douching myself.

A stroll through the ladies section of any drug store will reveal several shelves of douches-all neat and plastic and disposable.The girls are at it as much as ever but without the fun of the sensuous rubber bags that that made America great.Oh,"where are the snows of yesteryear?"and where is the ladies rubber bathroom plaything?

Now, all OB-GYN's tell everyone that douching can cause endometriosis. In females who squeeze the bulb too hard, they can force the solution up into the uterus. Using a gentle flow is very safe. This stuff about upsetting the natural vaginal flora is bogus, IF the women uses a tablespoon of white vinegar, or a mildly acidic solution per quart of water. The normal vaginal pH is 3.5-4.5. That is the same pH that a tblspn of vinegar will give you. This pH will support the doderlein bacillus that lives naturally in the vagina. This organism is there to fight off external pathogens, like E. Coli and others that live in the bowel and can get up to the vagina.

The reason so many women douched in the 20' through the 60's is that the only birth control available was condoms and diaphragms. Diaphragms came with Orthogynal jelly, a spermicide. The instruction told women to remove the diaphragm after 6 hours, not before, as live sperm could still be inside and cause pregnancy. It was suggested that the woman then wash out the spermicidal jelly with a douche.

The first birth control pill was introduced in 1960, but lots of women didn't trust it, or found that it had lots of side effects. (This was caused by the pill having way too much estrogen in it and break through bleeding)

I don't anymore my GYN told it was no good to do it that it does lead to problems.

Years ago a girlfriend showed me here bulb douche syringe and told me that when she "played"with it she especially "loved"the "soft"shield when it pressed against her vagina. In the pre vibrator day Im sure a lot of douche bulbs were "pressed"into that service

I started douching in college and initially it was for cleaning myself up after my period. As for douching during my period I never did that and don't recall ever knowing anybody who did. Later on it seemed like douching before a date seemed like a good idea and once I became sexually active had some advantages that I'll let your imagination work on. Douching after sex became important when I went on the pill and no longer had a partner who used condoms. I'm well thru menopause so douching after my period is no longer needed, but douching after some wonderful morning sex with my husband does still happen. Like other docs, my ob/gyn is against douching, so the only thing I use is a compact syringe and warm water. I've never had a problem either.

I have conjured up a douche fantasy recently. I would like for my wife to cuckold me and call me when she leaves the apartment, etc. of her boyfriend. (My wife is very vanilla, except for one wild night, years ago...) She is a wet mess and has slapped on a mini-pad to keep the drippies from running down her leg(s), etc.

In preparation for her arrival I have prepared a four quart pumpkin bag with a nice long hose and a vintage bakelite douche nozzle. I have spread a path of rose petals from the bed to bath. She comes in disrobes, and I do what I can to clean her vulva with my tongue.

I prepare the water to the perfect temperature, fill the bag, and she comes in and sits on the edge of the tub, where I have placed a folded towel so the cold of the tub will not bother her. At the last minute I reach up and add just an ounce or so of rose water to the open end of the douche bag.

I rub her shoulders will she performs her cleansing act of washing boyfriend's intimate sauce and her quim down the drain - ready for another adventure another time.

My guy sometimes gives me an erotic douche. First he fills our two quart hanging douche / enema bag with warm water. Then he fills the bathtub. When everything is ready he licks my slit to get me aroused. Then he helps me into the tub, and gently inserts the douche nozzle into me while I guide his hand. Finally he releases the clamp on the bag and I can feel the water going in. During this time I like squeezing and releasing my pussy lips so that the water fills me and comes out in spurts. Meanwhile he massages my boobs and clit area which feels really good, especially with the warm water going in and out, Finally,after my orgasm he will wash, dry, and powder me.

My mother taught my sisters to douche after their periods and she was taught by her mother. My girlfriend douches and lets me douche her. None of them have had medical issues because of douching. I wonder how it is that women have douched for hundreds of years without becoming sterile or having all the health issues that modern medicine is suddenly discovering. Mankind would have died out long ago if douching caused all the medical problems we hear about today. My girlfriend and sisters add some lemon juice or vinegar to their douche and also do herbal douches from time to time. They do keep their douche syringes clean and only for vaginal use.

My vagina is really sensitive, and I tend to get yeast infections after doing anything sexual. My doctor told me to start douching afterwards, to prevent that.

Bulb syringes have a movable shield to close the vagina while the bulb syringe is compressed to fill the vagina without having all the liquid flow out right away. When my girlfriend uses a fountain syringe she or I will close the lips around the douche nozzle to fill her until she feels full, then the clamp is closed and we let the douche gush out as she reclines in the bathtub. This is repeated until the bag is empty.

Douching is so refreshing for me especially if I am going to be sexually active. I much prefer disposable douches such as Summers Eve or Massengil.

With me being a man and when I was growing up, my mom taught me this information. I have learned that douching washes out and cleans out the woman's vagina.

@Kermit79 - I was taught the same thing by my mom growing up. We were an open family and my brother an I saw her and my sister douche on occasions. After I got married, my wife would douche with warm water and a little vinegar during her period. After we had sex she douched with only warm water. She would get in the shower to douche after sex, which lead to more sex in the shower with me helping her douche... I miss the good old days!

Hey, the fact that she wants you to douche her counts for a lot. Keep it up and ask her what else she may want you to do!!!

From a male standpoint (me), the top three sexually pleasing activities are:

1. inserting my hard and erect penis into my wife's vagina

2. Douching my wife using a black bulbous nozzle connected to the hose and bag

3. Pumping my wife's clitoris until it is big and then tonguing it until she comes

Hard left in the topic, but what does a douche feel like? It doesn't seem like it would be that bad, but it has led to the insult "douche bag," so maybe it is.

It mostly feels like running water.

There isn't a sensation of "filling up" as with an enema, of course you can pinch off your vulva around the nozzle but that is potentially dangerous because you could force water into the uterus. You should really be standing also when you douche, not lying supine because the water has a harder time flowing uphill into the uterus when standing.

15 to 20 ml of white vinegar should be added to each liter of douche solution. Actually 500ml of douche solution is plenty and adding a maximum of 10ml or two TEASPOONS of vinegar is more than enough.

I use vinegar and warmed water solution from teen years till now with no ill effects. Moderation like anything.

In the shower standing one leg raised up. Also don't push it right up against the cervix and squeeze the bulb for all your might or hang the bag super high.

Do not want to force it up the cervical os just let it spill from the vagina.

Switchable sums it up; it's a warm gushing feeling but not a distention type feel, feels nothing like taking an enema.

Mollie: What benefits do you derive from douching?

I use warm water with a few drops of tea tree oil. It’s a natural way to balance the ph or vinegar and water is good too. Just not too often, my doctor has said it’s not necessary but sometimes it just makes me feel cleaner.

Not sure if posted, but here's a good youtube video on the subject:

I once dated a girl and while we were out shopping one day, she said she needed to buy a douche. She started to pick up a Summers Eve. I said why spend $2 for that when you can buy a reusable douche bag for about $6 -7 and I can help you with it. (This was back when every grocery and pharmacy had a selection of bags). She was embarrassed but agreed. We bought a 2 quart red open top bag and some douche concentrate. Back at her apartment we both stripped and she said how do you want to do this? Well she laid back in the bathtub while I stood outside the tub holding up the very full bag. She inserted to douche pipe fully into her vagina and opened the clamp, holding her lips shut with one hand. When she was full, she would shut off the clamp, open her lips and let the water flow out. I was so hard I thought I would pass out! She joked that my dick was so hard I could just hang the bag from it to free up my hands...and she was right. Watching her was one of the most erotic experiences I have ever had...until later I was able to give her an enema. That is a story for later. Needless to say when she finished I was so horny that I quickly escorted her into the bedroom and soon she was needing another douche! 😉

Many decades ago when I was a teen there was some porn that mentioned a woman who liked to douche while she was taking an enema. It's an interesting idea, but never caught on. I'm sure if I were a gal it's something I would have played around with. Imagine the feeling of having two spray nozzles spraying into you at the same time! 😎

After reading some of these post, though I love having a penis and not having to worry about getting knocked up, or knocking up anyone else anymore (I got snipped), though some of you girls don’t seem to be into it, a good douching sounds like a blast!

Please understand, most of us guys are pigs, very curious pigs, and wonder about things, such as, “what does it feel like for her.” We simply like to know how “things” work, including some of your body parts. Knowing such things will also give us a better idea about what to do while we’re having “fun” together, the whole, “tell me what you want me to do” thing, which is only going to result in a better time for you!

As for the vagina being a “self-cleaning organ,” well, if it’s soiled often enough, maybe it can’t “keep up” and it needs some help!

Emom mentioned douching after morning sex so she didn’t have to put up with dripping, but I had a friend who loved the dripping feeling as she taught primary school. That amused me! She said that as another glob dripped out, she thought of how much fun she’d had that morning, and that no one else knew.

As far as the current theory of douching “clearing out necessary flora,” it seems to me that vaginas are pretty good at secreting their special juices, which will rapidly reline themselves with the proper wall coatings. Common sense (in short supply these days) is required when selecting what solution goes into the bag.

Also, I have had the privilege (fun?!) of helping a few female friend with both douching and enemas. Bravo for them in being uninhibited by external mores to embrace their desires and needs, flicking a finger to those more judgmental prudes among us. Aren’t we supposed to have fun and enjoy life?

I recall douching paraphernalia in the bathroom growing up as kid and my wife used them for decades without any issue. It was mostly a solo thing but I've given her many over the years also from a bag. Enemas are more fun though.

Two quart bag with with vinegar and water during and after my period and any time I feel like it. Not often. Nozzle, just any thing works fine. I do like the spraying one that came with the bag. Its gentle and the swirling solution feels nice.

My first wife …. although she never would take an enema …. would occasionally douche.

I didn't really have to convince her, and I got her started one time when we showered together. I would use plain water, and she seemed to enjoy it to some degree. But I thoroughly enjoyed giving them to her, and would get horny as hell. I know she never took them on her own (I think), but we often did this.

Clearly, I enjoyed doing this very much.

My subsequent wives …. not so much.

However, I had a woman that lived with me that used Summer's Eve occasionally …. and I was not fond of the taste of them (if you know what I mean).
