On the other hand, I wouldn't get too mad at the other doctor either as it is important for doctors' to question each others' practice if it appears outside of norms (and face it, voluntary castration is outside the norm).
Well maybe it's time that it wasn't outside the norm. In the victorian era it was the norm to use caustic chemicals to blister boy's penis' because they were masturbating. They also used crude metal devices on their genitals while they slept. They also castrated them and even removed the penis' as well of some of them. That was the norm back then, but for all the wrong reasons. So there can be norms that are no good in every society. And there can also be no norms that should be.
From everything I've been reading on the net, psychiatrists are just now starting to recognize non-paraphillic sexual disorders, or CSB, (compulsive sexual behavior) Realizing finally that hypersexuality is a legitimate physiological condition, rather than a psychotic deviency. So hopefully they'll begin to realize also, that high libido is not necessarily the 'lack of anything else constructive to do with their time', and begin to find solutions for treating this life altering 'physical' condition. Chemical and surgical castration among them.
Had it not been for this internet that Al Gore invented. (Joke) I would imagine that most everyone here would think they were the only person in the world who felt as they do. And within that, I believe it's safe to say there are still scores of people who have yet to relate with this site. It may not be a mandate of the population, but it is certainly a real percentage. And I for one hope that enough of us together can finally validate our claims, and eventually have them receive the sincere attention they deserve, with dignity and repose.
