Doucheflushing

Doucheflushing refers to the practice of using a bidet attachment or bidet shower to forcefully spray water into the anus and rectum. This is often done to cleanse the anal region, typically after defecation. While some individuals may use this practice for personal hygiene reasons, it is not a medically recommended procedure. Excessive or improperly performed doucheflushing can potentially disrupt the natural bacterial flora of the rectum, which can lead to various health issues. These may include an increased risk of infections, irritation, and discomfort. The practice is also sometimes associated with a desire to achieve a specific sensation or as part of certain sexual practices. Medical professionals generally advise against routine douching of the rectum due to the potential negative consequences for anal and rectal health. Maintaining cleanliness through standard hygiene practices is typically sufficient and less invasive.
