Re: Urologist Turned Down
No scrotum is the way to go. My partner finds it best too, enjoying the area where it used to be.

Re: Urologist Turned Down
Yes, I understand if scrotal tissue is removed, there would be no sensation in the former scrotum. What I am asking is after a scrotectomy tuck, there is still tissue that connects the base of the penis to the perineum. The plastic surgery results in being smooth under the penis base. So I am curious, does this tissue suffer nerve damage or can you still feel sensation where the scrotum used to be? I hope that clears up any confusion. Thank you.

Re: Urologist Turned Down
Ok. We try again:
The scrotum goes. Remaining skin from beside it joins together in the midline for the entire length of the scrotum to the penis base.
The incision therefore ends at the penis base. The skin has its normal sensation, as nothing was done to alter it. Only the scrotum goes.
The incision is closed by a stitch. It feels and heals much like any other incision. It is like any other surgical incision, and really unremarkable.
The scrotum goes, and regular skin joins together where it was. The regular skin feels like regular skin. There is nothing unusual about this rather minor cosmetic procedure, but I am very happy with the result.

Re: Urologist Turned Down
I get plenty aroused and have a lot of sensation, and I don't have a cock or balls. The best way I can put how you will feel is to feel the area along the side of your scrotum, adjacent to the legs. Touch yourself in the crease between your balls and legs, but don't touch the sac, and you'll get a general idea of what the sensation of people without a scrotum is. We still have that skin and those nerves.

Thank you, Losethem. This is very helpful and appreciate you confirming this.
I started my savings for the first step, my orchiectomy. Once completed and healed, I will have better knowledge for the scrotal tuck procedure.

Tuck?
I think he just cut mine out!

Working on it. I understand elective orchectomies are not covered by insurance and often require cash payments for the procedure. I started my liquid savings. Hope to be there soon. Thank you.

I live in Virginia and have been looking for a doctor for orchiectomy. Would you be able to give me the info to doc in Virginia your friend used? Thanks.

I do not know who the doctor is, but he's on most websites where he talks about this using the name Split6. Look around and reach out to him.

For what it's worth, the practice of Brownstein & Crane has a longstanding good reputation in the transgender community. If I were looking to have my genitals rearranged, I'd definitely choose one of their docs over Arnkoff. Arnkoff sounds nice, but it also sounds like he may not be the most skilled or up to date.

That's what I did.

Does anyone know how far Arnkoff is out for appointments? When others have reached out, how quickly did you get in?
A friend is asking me to check as he doesn't come on here.

No credit cards. Cash would be okay but I didn't want to be carrying around that much cash while traveling to Michigan so I asked and he took a Certified Bank Check.
