Men's Underwear as a Eunuch - Does it Fit?

[Swim_1650]

For the Eunuchs who have had an orchiectomy, Is it a challenge to find properly fitting underwear?

I am looking into getting an orchiectomy with scrotectomy, but one thing I haven't given much thought to until now is how well underwear fits without the testicles/scrotum to fill out the front. Men's underwear usually has some degree of geometry to accommodate the male bulge. Without the testicles and especially the scrotum, I assume the penis just kinda tucks downward between the legs?

I found a couple old threads here where people were talking about how they wear woman's underwear. Not sure if that's common practice among eunuchs or just a certain subset. I want be continue being masculine presenting so I'd prefer not to wear feminine looking underwear. That said, I'd prefer not to wear men's underwear that have empty crotches swimming in excess fabric..

I wear briefs probably 80% of the time and mix-in boxer-briefs/trunks 20%- predominately Calvin Klein brand but I suspect their products will fit me well if/when I become a eunuch

Do you have any underwear brands or product lines you recommend? I I would preferably more masculine but with a flatter crotch? Or are Eunuchs destined to buy womens underwear.

Thanks for your 4elp!

Well I was going to start my answer with the classic question "Boxers or Briefs" but you sort of answered that...

Boxers probably wouldn't change the fit much since they are loose in that area anyway.... Before my surgery I was wearing FOTL (Fruit of the Loom) briefs with a 'male guard' pad due to my leakage issues. (FOTL's have the advantage of being economical, and the few times I tried fancier brands they didn't feel that much more comfortable) I was already pretty small so they weren't all that tight in the crotch anyway.

How much your will dangle after surgery will probably depend on how big it is and how much it dangled before... Mine wasn't big enough to dangle, so it was never a problem....

I continued to use this combo for a while after surgery, but I found it let the pad gap to far away from the source and allowed leakage to escape w/o getting soaked up by the pad.... I initially tried designing a modified men's style with a drop front to allow easy pad changes but it was more of a project than I thought. In the mean time I decided to give women's a try, and bought a three pack of ladies FOTL briefs - I found they held the pad up tighter and gave me a bit more support... I now wear them all the time.

In terms of appearance - the plain white FOTLS aren't that obviously women's aside from the front difference. They are a slightly finer and tighter weave fabric, but it's still a white jersey. The waistband is narrower elastic but it isn't at all lacey or otherwise feminine.... I keep my pants up high enough that my underwear doesn't show, but my evaluation is that a person that was familiar with both and looked closely would be able to tell, but at a casual glance they don't look enough different to be screamingly obvious...

I primarily wear boxer briefs and ya they definitely got a bit roomier without my balls but I haven't felt the need to change things up. I still have a penis so having some pouch is more comfortable than none at all. I don't think I'd even notice a difference in fit wearing nomal boxers. Not to be too crass but if you're well endowed in the penis department you'll definitely want to still have underwear with a pouch even after getting castrated.

Generally I'm wearing woven boxers if I'm wearing underwear at all. These are the empty shorts I'm most proud of. They fit and feal great. Nothing beats an unfinished basement.

For active wear (I cycle and gym a lot), I'll usually wear a PAPI thong. PAPI undershorts get dissed by really hung guys because they form a very shallow pouch causing their junk to routinely fall out. In my case they hug the contours of my lack of junk and fit and feel great.

I, too, faced the decision of whether or not to wear women's underwear. Ultimately, I opted for women's underwear because I use basic panty liners, and they work perfectly with this style. Plus, the fit is really good. Besides, who actually sees your underwear anyway? Doctors and your partner know the situation regardless, so who cares what you wear?

Hopefully fashions have changed but back when I was a substitute teacher, many of the teenage students were very into showing off their underwear, and went around with their pants half way down - I was rude about it, said it reminded me of a toddler with a good load in his diaper....

Speaking of which, old Hillbilly joke - Social worker goes to visit family way back in the sticks... Sees toddler with such a load that it's dragging on the ground... She exclaims about the need to change that child! Hillbilly responds not to worry, he's got one of them thar newfangled disposable diapers on. Package says they're good for 15-30lbs, that kid ain't got over 12 yet....

I never had a big package to begin with, and with chemical castration, everything shrank to less than half their peak sizes. I really dislike the looseness of a sagging empty front pouch. It looks terrible to me, but it feels even worse because I don't feel supported. For the last several years, I have gradually changed over to women's bikini underwear. I look for those that do not look so feminine. I don't like laces any way. I just browse Amazon, Temu and other online retailers.

Actually, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger both make nice women's underwear that are quite similar to their sexier lines of men's underwear, nice strong material, just without the front pouch. The most telling sign is the much smaller waist band and logo.

But I love the tight fit. As I mentioned in other threads, I like to invert my penis and keep it tugged that way 24/7, and a tight brief keeps everything nicely tugged. My testicles, although still present are only pea size and they naturally retreat halfway up into the body, tho not quite back into the inguinal canal. So a tight fitting undie gives them the final little support to stay mostly and comfortably inside.

I go to the gym all the time and I guess I am a bit more thick skinned and do not mind showing off my smooth front. But then, I go to nude beaches often, showing off my tiny package, and sometimes, neatly tugged as well.

I have an odd situation. I had switched to mostly men's thongs and g=strings. Then medical issues intervened. I was unexciting average but over the past 10 years amyloid protein fibrils have cut off blood flow to my penis and swelled my scrotum. My scrotum no longer fits in thongs/g-strings, but I no longer have an issue with penis size. I now wear women's hipster bikini underwear. It holds my scrotum tightly which my urologist likes. Now having a tiny limp penis with swollen scrotum is odd and finding a solution is a compromise.

Not sure what to suggest other than the question of whether there is anything surgical that can be done? Otherwise it may just be a case of trying different brands / styles to see if you can find anything that fits better....

I use standard men's cotton briefs. Comfortably holds a shrunken penis, empty scrotum, and disposable incontinence pad to protect against leakage.
