Someone expressed concern over the advive I gave earlier in this thread. She did it on another thread instead of here for some reason so here it is... quote:
Looks over to WayHome...You are exactly right, not all advice given here is correct, and he who is without sin may cast the first stone...as a slave recalls you made some assertions in the thread about piss enemas, not sure where your information came from, but having a degree in human biology i do know that there are inherent dangers involved in ANY exchange of human bodily fluids, in ANY orifice...infection is a risk anywhere, mouth could have a lesion, so could the anus....but then again i could be wrong...but one thing i do know is that people come here asking advice and opinions, that is what they get....right or wrong, it is the reader that must figure that out. smiles gitta I'm not sure what the exact objection is so to be safe, and in case I was not clear, I will reiterate. I stated that piss is NOT sterile. This common misconception exists even among some healthcare professionals and has it's root in the procedural sterility of the urethra. Though it's not sterile and some diseases CAN be transmitted via urine, it is safer than most other bodily fluids, including saliva, blood, semen, vaginal secretions, sputum, feces (of course), and even tears. Urine can be more dangerous if the one urinating is not healthy. Specifically diseases of the urinary tact or kidneys. Trace amounts of blood can get into urine if the person has a problem and that greatly increases risk. In the case of a UTI, bacteria can grow directly in the urine. There is always risk with any bodily fluid (duh), but piss is not a particular concern. Now, the issue of urine in the vagina was also addressed. As I said, this can present problems that have nothing to do with contamination of the urine. Disrupting the natural balance of beneficial organisms in the vagina can be dangerous. This applies to urine, douches, and anything else you put in there. As always, be careful with anyone's bodily fluids, but if you are willing to have semen or vaginal secretions in your mouth or anus, then piss probably isn't worth worrying about. There was a time when some doctors routinely tasted the urine of their patients, even very sick ones, as a way of diagnosing diabetes myelitis. To me, that says a lot about how safe it is.
