So for the longest time I used a douche with a thin, hard plastic nozzle. But recently some friends mentioned they used the pictured douche which has a much thicker but softer nozzle. It also sprays to the sides to prevent the water shooting up too high.
I have a couple of questions - how deep should I be inserting the nozzle? With my old one because it shot water straight up, the depth wasn't an issue. But with this one I'm having a bit of a problem with water trickling out my butt. It's possible I'm not pushing it quite deep enough.
And the nozzle has a slight curve. What direction should that curve be facing? Towards my stomach?
Thanks for your help!
Hey, thanks for responding! :) It's ok, Lemmy is still growing and hopefully in the future we'll get more people here.
For me, this new douche is an improvement. It's made cleaning out a lot easier - I think partially because the 'standard' douche would shoot water directly upwards, which if you're not careful can go beyond the sigmoid and make cleaning harder. This one shoots more gently to the sides. The downside is that it requires a bit more prep (application of lube and the slight risk of dripping water) but I think it's worth it! I really like being able to just pour water directly into the bulb, and the nozzle being a bit larger makes it much easier to clean the douche itself too. Oh and be a little careful as there can be a slight edge to the seam on the nozzle - as long as you're gentle pushing it in, it's ok.
