How to Keep Records of Enemas Taken

Enemas can be taken for specific medical reasons or to cleanse the colon. If you administer enemas on a regular basis, you may want to keep a record of the when, what and reaction of the process. You can easily make up a form on your computer, which will help you keep track of the enemas you have received. Not everyone reacts well to enemas, so you may want to talk to your doctor before you start administering them to yourself.
