Anal stimulation positively affects the relationship, brings variety to the bedroom, and provides great pleasure for both sexes. Anal play can include gentle external stimulation of the anal opening or comprehensive anal sex.
Although it is known that anal orgasms are very intense, most people do not practice anal sex because they are concerned about hygiene. This can be quickly resolved with anal douching. For cleaning, use plain warm water, but never use vinegar or other strong substances!
The external part of the anal opening is one of the most sensitive parts of the human body, so we assure you that stimulation without penetration will also be pleasant. Minimal preparation for enjoying external anal stimulation includes emptying the bowels followed by external cleaning. Clean the exterior of the anal opening with warm water and, if necessary, with mild soap. When choosing soap, be careful as the anus is a very sensitive area and soap can irritate the skin.
Baby wipes are also very useful for gentle cleaning. They are a quick choice, but not the best solution.
Internal rinsing is not necessarily required, but it is recommended occasionally. You can clean the rectum internally in several ways - using an anal douche (bulb), with shower attachments, or with a bag for anal douching. Remember, you only need to clean a few centimeters, not the entire bowel.
The most well-known and simple type of douche is the bulb-shaped kind (enema bulb). The douche consists of a wider, bulb-like bottom part, usually made of silicone or rubber, and a pointed tip. The tip can be metal or plastic.
How does the basic anal douche work? You detach the tip from the bulb. Fill the bulb with water (warm, not hot). Attach the tip (nozzle), lubricate it, and gently insert it into the anus. Insert the nozzle only about 5 cm deep, as you need to clean only the lowest part. Make sure it is well lubricated. For this, use a silicone-based lubricant, as water-based ones will wash away quickly. Squeeze the bottom part of the toy, as this will squirt water into the anus. Hold for a few seconds, then release the water into the toilet. Repeat the process until the water runs clear.
Bulbs are available in different sizes, allowing you to choose a douche that fits your needs. The upper part (nozzle) is even more important. Tips are available in different lengths and designs.
With this type of douche, it is essential to make sure that the parts are not only properly cleaned, but also dried after cleaning. If not, mold can develop, presenting a risk of infection.
Cleaning the rectum with a shower is recommended especially for those who engage in deep penetration (fisting or with larger dildos). Shower attachments are designed to be easily attached to a bathroom shower. This provides deeper cleaning, as water from the shower comes under higher pressure. Of course, care must be taken to adjust the water pressure and ensure the temperature is not too high. Otherwise, you could injure yourself.
You fill the bag with water and hang it higher than yourself. A long tube attached to it is inserted into the anus. Gravity pulls the fluid down the tube and into the rectum. Usually, the flow of water can be regulated. These products are especially suitable for travel, as you can simply fold and pack the empty bag, allowing you to engage in anal play whenever and wherever.
You must remember that the bowel contains bacteria. Some of them are beneficial - they help the body digest food and absorb nutrients needed, so it is not recommended to rinse them out too often. If you use an anal douche too frequently, you might flush these bacteria out. However, if you use it only occasionally, you need not worry. Of course, consult a doctor if any changes occur.
