burdizzo question

Post by neweunuch (imported) »

Using a burdizzo should the chords actually break or just get crushed in order to be successful?

Crushed. But you will most likely go through all that pain for nothing.

The Cords are Crushed, but timing is everything, if the burdizo is released to soon the castration atempt will fail.

The odds are that no matter how long you clamp it, it will fail. Success with burdizzo is rare.

Yes that has been reported over and over here in these forums :(

I know someone who was successful. He kept the clamp closed for 30 minutes per side with a lot of lidocaine. This is an immensely difficult thing to do.

I have used a homemade clamp. The pieces that contact the scrotum are hard wood, I screwed down slowly , each time the pain eased I tightened again until it was to the point of cutting the skin. I used a tattoo painkilling spray to easy the stinging the clamping down took about 20mins. I also use slow deep breathing to relax, I have clamped three times to make sure, the longest two and half hours ( I went to sleep) My testicles are shrinking and my sex drive has gone , I am not seeing any other changes apart from a slight loss of energy, I am happy

Oh dear, yet another DIY attempt. I tried something similar and it didn't work. 2 1/2 hours is probably long enough to kill the testicle, however. Be prepared to go to a medical facility to have them removed. Having dead flesh still attached to the rest of your body can be life threatening. Be prepared for several potential side effects that will damage both your privacy and your bank balance....

Stay safe and good luck.

Trying to do it yourself will most likely result in one of two things, a trip to the ER and then the rubber room for a while or death. The likely hood of success is slim to none. Take it from us as we have all tried one method or another and we all FAILED then did it the right way and went to a Doctor and had them removed.

We get this question a couple times a year, our response is always the same.

ARE YOU NUTS?

Look we all know the drive to have them removed, you are not alone in that feeling and I can tell you after mine were removed my first thought was "I am now complete" so do it the right way and don't kill yourself in the process.

River has it. If you absolutely want it, burdizzo is not the way to go.

Read the postings here. A medical professional essential for safety.

River has it. There was a member by the name of Bill who lived in the UP of Michigan, who was determined to go the burdizzo method. He found a person in the Mid West someplace to do it for him. He was around for a while after his procedure. He is no longer here. My guess is things wrong. Sure they use the burdizzo on animals but it not a good thing for human beings lest you want to die anyways.

Why not use alcohol or alcohol and calcium chloride. This is a proven method where many have subsequently been able to get a medical removal?

I agree with jcat, I used calcium chloride injections successfully and my testicles were surgically removed by a certified urologist on 03/15/2014. In fact when he looked at my scans, he told me that they would have to go without my even having to ask him to remove them.

That's what we love to hear, a success story.

Ho Hum,

To put it plan you were damn lucky one guy who came in here several years ago did that and damn near died.

So lets see if I have this right, you were using a syringe to inject foreign material into your nuts then after you killed them you removed them yourself, er, no you went to a doctor to have them removed.

Look we have all done stupid things to get our nuts removed, bottom line if you want them gone, have a doctor do it.

I suggest that before you judge those of us who used this method, you do like all of us who did use it successfully, go and read the thread on calcium chloride from end to end, when you have read it then you will be in a better position to criticise.

Don't forget, when you advise someone you effectively take responsibility if they follow your advice.

Thanks, Talula. I must agree that DIY is NOT the way to go. There are doctors out there who will do it. DIY will get you into all sorts of unnecessary trouble and unnecessary pain. Please don't try this at home! We know that you are desperate - we all were! STOP! THINK! Go get a real doctor to do this. PLEASE!

I agree totally with this sentiment. My situation was that I had been suffering from testicular pain for years and could not get the darned things removed since the scans showed nothing. One idiot urologist told me the pain was coming from my back and prescribed nerve pain medication for me which didn't help worth a darn. I read about calcium chloride on another site and it had a link to the discussion on this forum. The mention on Tribe advised to read the discussion from front to back, which I did before even considering trying this method. My primary aim was to damage my testicles to the extent that they would be removed by a certified urologist. I would never have left the damaged bits in my body, nor would I have resorted to a cutter or DIY to remove them.

If you check back on my previous posts regarding the calcium chloride method, you will at all times see that I have advocated reading the entire thread and then doing some further research to establish whether this method is acceptable to the person considering it and also that should they decide to use this method, they did so at own risk.. I did a lot of further research on the calcium chloride method from other web resources before I finally made my decision. When I did decide to go ahead, I was well aware of all the potential risks and took the appropriate steps to minimize any potential negative consequences.

Upshot of the matter, my testicles were damaged to the extent that my urologist actually told me that they would need to be removed. They were successfully removed by my urologist on March 15th this year and I have been pain free from day one, a great result I would say. I was on HRT before their removal and am still on it and have no intention of quitting HRT at all.

God tell me it's a joke...

I have heared that it take no more than 15 seconds on farm animals, Why would it take more than that on humans?

Arent humans testicles much smaller too?

Wouldnt it be less painful too since you're not killing the testicles like Cacl2 shots but only both cords which are also less sensitive?

I'm seriously considering it and was thinking of buying a burdizzo tomorrow off ebay, though Since I found that thread, IM not sure anymore.

Also, Wouldn't it be better to crush them over many attempts than going through a single painful session?

I can't get myself to finish them with an other cacl2 shot, that's why Im seeking new methods.

thx

The spermatic cord is structured quite differently in primates (humans, chimps, gorillas) than it is in ungulates (cattle, goats, sheep). In ungulates it is "brittle" and the blood supply can be easily disrupted. In primates if is much more flexible and a burdizzo is far less likely to work. There are occasional (and very painful) successes, but it is certainly not recommended for any attempts.

For my situation, the problem with burdizzo was the reason for my former master to use elastrator. That's all. (He didn't keep the tool there enough in any case).

The sort of death and infection rate that is acceptable on livestock would be appalling for humans. My ex-girlfriend was a veterinarian and I used to go to farms with her. There were days when she neutered a hundred goats or sheep in a day using an emasculator or burdizzo (with me mostly holding them down for her). It was just accepted that some percentage of them would die afterwards, because sheep and goats are cheap. She NEVER used those tools on important animals like peoples' dogs or livestock that was going to be shown, because the risks were too high. A procedure that isn't safe enough for a show steer definitely isn't safe enough for you.

(btw, I tried to talk her into doing an orchiectomy on me, but she wasn't sold on the idea and then we broke up)
