<p>A douching device (1) for administering a douche solution to a human femal vagina. The device (1) includes a discharge member (2) having an elongate body (4) of generally thin walled tubular construction and composed at least substantially of a flexible material. The body (4) defines an elongate flow passage (5) having an inlet end (6) connectable to a container (3) having a supply of douche solution. The passage (5) also has an outlet end (7) at which there is an array of outlet openings (11) for discharging solution in a spray pattern. The device (1) can form part of a douching kit also including an applicator instrument (13) for inserting the discharge member (2) into the vagina. The instrument (13) is composed of stiff material and is elongate with leading and trailing end regions (14, 16). In use, the discharge member (2) is positioned to lie in a collapsed condition along the instrument (13). Then the instrument (13) is inserted in an elongate direction into the vagina, the leading end region leading (14), so as to carry the discharge member (2) into the vagina until the outlet end (7) is located toward the cervix and the inlet end (6) remains external of the vagina. The instrument (11) is then withdrawn to leave the discharge member (2) in place.</p> |
