Re: Orchiectomy today
Almost a month post Surgery. All is great. I did learn the hard way by what they meant by no lifting over 20lbs for first couple weeks. But, got over it and all is good. ��

Welcome, new eunuch. Mid-50s seems to be a good time in life for this new beginning.

Congratulations on hitting your first month milestone. It gets easier from here.

Hey @Mbrace05,
Very glad to hear you are doing well.
Also, thanks for the reminder to follow post op instructions. Getting that reminder from someone who has just been there is valuable. Please keep us posted and stay safe.

Re: Orchiectomy today
It has been a while since I have posted. All is well. Just a very minute amount of testosterone now prescribed by my doctor. I had my t levels checked last week. It was in the 40 range. I hope all is well With everyone else.

Isn't Dr. Sherie and her staff great? Not all all like the bland, sterile hospital experience. I highly recommend her.

Yes she is. Her staff is amazing! Almost 6 months post op and completely happy. Life is amazing! Boobs are growing nicely. Almost impossible to get hard. I remember laying on the table thinking how things are going to change. Again, it's amazing! Hope everyone is well ��

How are you feeling?
We wish you a full recovery!
Thanks! I expected something simpler, less painful. I'm still recovering. Physically, I'm still on the mend. I wear it badly. It's supposed to be a few more weeks and better. I'm not mentally dealing with the consequences for now.

Hope you are doing well Attis. How come you are not dealing with the mental consequences? Wasn't this desired?

I'm busy with physical pain. I heard that the post-operative pain and wound dressing end sooner.
I'm impatient...
