First time suppository?

Question

Tomorrow i have to get a suppository (medical procedure..2 of them!!) for the first time and i'm 15.. I hear it's where they push a pill up your butt but that's all i know. does it hurt a lot? do i have to take off my clothes?

i'm embarassed about it a lot. do i have to stand up or what do i do? what if i make my cheeks tight together or try to so they cant put it in? what if they put it in and i push it out?

does it make me go to the bathroom the same way or diffferent and longer?

Answer 1

I got sick and I had to take some. It stung a little but it wasnt unbearable and it lasted for only a few minutes. You will have to take off your clothes. I put them in myself so I dont know what exactly the doctor will do diffirently. I stood up. It wont work if you make them tight. You wont push it out mine got absorbed quickly. Make sure you go to the bathroom (no. 2) before you go so you dont need to and push it out. Good luck!

A suppository should not hurt. They are generally very soft, and begin to melt immediately upon insertion. You may have to disrobe from the waist down, but you will have a gown on. If having the back open bothers you, feel free to ask for a second gown to cover your backside. You would wear it like a robe, over the 1st gown, but backwards.

You will be positioned or asked to lay on your side.

This procedure is usually never the easiest thing for a person to go through because few people want anyone doing anything around that area.

Don't be embarrassed. Take music with you, or a book, something to distract you for the few minutes you will have to wait for the suppository to work.

There should be no significant changes in the way you go to the bathroom, although you may expel more than normal for a while, since this is what the suppository is meant to do. The effects should not last for very long. Ask your doctor or the assistant/tech how long the effects will last.

If they insert the suppository and you push it back out, they will simply reinsert. If it has melted quite a bit, they may not do anything, or they may insert another.

Either way the entire procedure doesn't take very long. Depending on how crowded it is, you should be done and on your way home in about an hour, give or take a few minutes.

I hope everything goes well for you, and I hope you are able to relax, even a bit. Relaxing will make the procedure easier and you will be on your way home sooner.

I hope this helps!!

It won't be fun but it won't hurt. They'll probably put you in a hospital gown and ask you to lie down on your side. Just close your eyes and think about something else while they do it. It'll be quick and painless and over very fast! Don't worry - you won't push it out or squeeze your cheeks. They are medical professionals and the know how to do this. They probably won't want you to go to the bathroom for awhile afterwards but it won't affect anything there. Just think - it could be much worse - like giving birth! Compared to that this will be a piece of cake.

It isn't that big of a deal, and don't worry. The only thing that they might tell you is not to go #2 for a couple of hours. It doesn't hurt because they usually lube you up first. just relax and every thing will be fine.
