- Most enema bags have a capacity to hold at least 2 quarts of enema solution. This means that the enema can reach higher into the colon to thoroughly clean the colon of constipated, impacted feces, and other harmful substances.
- Most enema bags have an adjustable flow. The adjustable flow on an enema bag is most beneficial in cases of severe constipation, because the flow can be adjusted so that the enema administering nozzle doesn't become clogged with fecal matter.
- When you use small-volume enemas for relief of constipation--and even for pleasure enemas--often more than one enema is used, and a lot of extra time and money is spent on the enema procedure. Using an enema bag, your one-time investment will pay for itself. You can administer the enema and be totally relieved of constipation within an hour without having to use another enema
- With an enema bag, you can create your own enema solution using a variety of widely available enema recipes. If you're using a premixed disposable enema, you either have to use the premixed solution or virtually waste your money by pouring out the solution and creating your own.
- Most enema bags come with two nozzles. Although one of the nozzles is intended for enemas and the other is intended for feminine douching, both nozzles can be used interchangeably.
- After you use your enema bag, you should always clean and dry it with mild soap and a tiny drop of bleach. Let your enema bag dry before you store it in a closet or the drawer in your bathroom or bedroom. Be sure the enema bag is completely dried before storing it to prevent mold and mildew.
