Unfortunately the UK seems to be one of the places in the world that is less access to a lot of the care we have in other places. I'm told your NHS has very long waiting lists and isn't very helpful, and that there aren't many private pay service options. I know that several members of the forum version previous to this one (EAv2) found they had to do medical tourism, and go to Dr. Aguilar's clinic in Mexico for their surgeries.

Yes, that is right. Only transgender surgery is available; no castration or nullification for people who don't want to change genders. Because of politics, the treatment that was available for adolescents has been stopped.

Welcome to the forums, Eunuchtobe24 and thanks for sharing your experience with navigating the British Healthcare system as a person of gender non-conforming experience. I've heard the horror stories about how unaccommodating the NIH is towards those outside the gender binary who are seeking affirming care. Politically, the US isn't much better, but if you're able/willing to travel to the states, there are a good number of accommodating providers. Mexico is another option, and the procedures tend to be much more affordable, but due diligence is much advised.

Hi Eunuchtobe24, welcome to our forum!
Your description is pretty much the same of mine, except that I'm brazilian
Feel free to share your thoughts with us. I would like to ask what drives you into castration?
Hello!
Thank you for the welcome (everyone!).
I’ve wanted it since I was about 14, I just don’t identify with my balls I guess and the idea of not having them turns me on a lot too admittedly. How about you?

Just like you, I've been fantasizing about being castrated since 14 or so. I like the idea towards others too. But I wouldn't do it if I had a loved one, but, since I'm a loner/forever alone, at least for now, I might do it one day to shut down sexual desire. I always wanted to be a father and to enjoy a sex life, but I don't seem to capable of achieving that. I feel like I didn't deserve manhood, or testosterone or balls, anything like that.
Summing, for me it's a fetish, a mean and a punishment/lamentation.
A loner who thinks in castration as an escape from flesh temptations.
Interestingly, According to Paolo on EAv2 one of the early surveys they did found the average age people gave for when they wished they could have been castrated was about eleven and a half so 14 is not unusual...
I'd also say not to rush, no matter how tempting the desire might be... I didn't meet my GF until I was in my 30's - so you have plenty of time to find the right girl (it only takes one...)
I've seen a lot of people in the disability / wheelchair world that express doubts about being able to find romance, and I think one of the best suggestions I've ever seen is to ask yourself what you'd want to do to become the sort of person that YOU would want to date, and work on that... If you can become the sort of person that you'd be willing to date, that will make you look more attractive to others...
