EA Forums

Hi all. I am 20 yrs old and have wanted to castrate myself for quite some timw now. I want to remove them by banding and cutting. I am looking for any advice or tips and pics of the process. Thanks

Step 1: SLOW DOWN! Unless you do something very stupid, like attempting self-surgery without sufficient knowledge, you are likely to live for many more years. You can afford to take your time to do everything right.

Before doing anything irreversible, a trial run with chemical castration is strongly suggested. Read some of the posts here on the Archive. Ask questions and listen to the advice that will be given. We're happy to have you here and hope to have you around for many more years.

I have wanted this for many years. I am sure its what I want

I HATE MY BALLS and want them gone!

And I will repeat the suggestion that others made:

First go the chemical route and see how not having testosterone affects your life.

Removing your testicles is very permanent. Take the time to understand what you are doing.

Also, consider if you want children at any time in the future and if you might, if there is the slimmest possibility, get some sperm frozen and stored at a responsible facility.

Thankfully you have come to the right place. Many people here have experienced your pain and frustration. I concur with others and add that what you need to do first is LOWER your testosterone level. This hormone somehow causes many men to think that castration is the only answer, when in fact, just lowering testosterone will get rid of the craving for castration. Get professional help, and if that does not work out, get a product like Siterone on your own via the internet and follow the instructions carefully and give yourself a good six months trial run to see how lowering testosterone improves your life.

Each of us have our differences, but generally speaking, lowering testosterone can get rid of a lot of your frustrations and cravings.

Took me over 40 years to discover this. Through the miracle of the internet and public sharing of experiences you need not go through the anguish and suffereing that others have gone through. Take it one step at a time. The quick fix is not the answer. Chemically lowering your testosterone will most likely enable you to be in control of your life.

Great advice here...Thanks nullorchis..I just ordered some spiro and estradiol from United Pharmacies yesterday...a 3 month supply...I finally am doing something about this castration drive I have...If I don't like it, I can just cease and desist...as can our young friend...I feel great..Thanks again Jackie

STEP 2: Plan to attend the annual Minneapolis gathering of the EA community. All of the information about the gathering is at:

http://www.eunuch.org/forums/showthread ... idwest-MoM

You will be able to ask questions and receive valid answers face-to-face, rather than impersonally over the Internet. The people who attend are friendly and helpful. Your profile indicates that you live within reasonable driving distance of the site. If nothing else, you could make a long day of it and drive over for Riverwind's "World Famous" pancake breakfast on the Saturday, stay for conversation and camaraderie (and the answers to your important questions), have dinner with the crew and still make it home at a reasonable hour.

I recently chatted online with a gentleman who castrated himself by banding and cutting and he wound up in the ER when he went into shock. Plus he said it was the worst pain he'd ever experienced in his life. All in all he did not recommend that particular method.

The best advice I can give is what others have already said--slow down! Take the time to carefully consider your reasons for wanting castration and what benefits you expect to get out of it. If loss of testosterone is what you're after, consider trying chemical castration to see if the effects are truly what you want. If the issue is hating the balls themselves (body identity integrity disorder), take the time to investigate safer removal methods. Set a goal of saving up the $2k required for a visit to Dr. Arnkoff for safe surgical removal. You can use the time to reflect and be absolutely certain that this is what you want and need for yourself. If you still feel self-castration is the only available option, consider alcohol injections. It is a far less invasive method and there is an entire thread about the subject here in the forums where you can learn from the experience of others who have done it.

I will also reiterate what others have said about utilizing this site, including that chat room. You can learn a lot from the people here. There is no reason to rush into a course of action that could very well wind up with you bleeding to death. You are young and have plenty of time to investigate options and find what will truly work for you.

Good luck to you as you embark on this journey.

I am not interested in hearing slow down. I have made up my mind and I am going to castrate myself. I am lookiing for advice on doing it. Only reply if you have advice on castrating ones self

No sane person on this site will provide you with such information. You are very likely to end up in the Emergency Ward, followed by being placed under psychiatric evaluation for some period of time (generally weeks) should you attempt a self-castration with your level of knowledge. No insurance covers self-inflicted harm. Your name is likely to be published in the local newspaper after such a foolish act. The most recent such act of which I know involved a college student who ended up under psychiatric observation for six week. He also lost his college fellowship as a result.

As calmer heads here keep telling you - SLOW DOWN and do your homework.

someday, I hope such things (scholarship revocation for body modification) are illegal.

Take the advice you see here. Elastrators are meant for farm animals. You are a human. Even with care and practice, it's still not uncommon to lose a "kid" via banding from infection. Your immune system is not the same, and the bands are more than likely to NOT hold the cut ends. You'll bleed, go into shock, etc., and likely die if you do it alone. Recall the casualty rate back in the days of eunuchs - even the pro's back then lost some.

You will find no one on this board to openly encourage you to do this.

If you're intent on this type of self harm, you need to get some help.

And fast.

I'll also be blunt. Repeated replies of the nature of "I am going to do this" or similar, without any rational discourse to accompany it, will get you kicked off the boards as a troll.

Please chill out, try the chemical castration route, and find someone to talk to - openly and rationally - about this.

Yes, we're all here to help if we can, but we're not here to encourage harm.

Mister, you came to this forum asking for advice and and you are getting it and you WILL be polite enough to stop and listen what is offered or I WILL personally kick you off this forum so hard your ass will end up in Alexandria!

When these good folks advise you to 'cool your jets' they mean it. If you are 20, you are young enough that time is on your side to make an informed desicion. Is this what you really want ultimatly? What will it do you help you? Will it improve your overall and lifetime quality of life? If so why?

You haven't said why you want to do this except "I hate my balls I want them gone" and that isn't a very complete reason. So what are your logical reasons (and they don't have to be logical to us, just to you).

So, with all this, listen to what is said here. You came to us and what we say may not be what you want to hear but you are getting honest answers.

A little sugar goes far far farther than a big box of salt. Respecting that, I do have to echo what the others have said. I was chemical for over 3 years before I was surgically done. And I very glad that I did that. You have to carefully weight that bad with the good when it comes to castration.. I was not expecting that I would loose as much physical strength that I lost. The driness of skin has been another issue for me. But all in all, I am thnakful to be a Eunuch and not waste any more time with a sex drive and looking at porn. Make sure and make doubly and thripely sure that you can live with the bad that comes with castration..

Don't do it bro, I thought of doing it myself and realized it is not going to work because just think about slicing a piece of your skin with a razor or poking yourself with a long needle. Your mind might trick you into thinking wow this is really possible but its not. Leave the surgery to the professionals, take out a loan for 3k.

so what are the popular chemicals used for castration? I want something like a pill. Where can I order, im in NY USA

Also if i decide to get a doctor to cut em off, what are some good doctors who will do the surgery without papers in USA? preferably near ny

I try my darndest to not give advice, but to convey my experiences, feelings, actions and results, and emphasize that each person needs to choose and decide for themselves. And still, when I look back on some of my comments, I find that every now and then I goof and say something that vaguely resembles, or is out and out advice.

Thinking it through, going slow, seeking professional help, avoiding taking any personal independent action, with or without the assistance of another, (verbal, text, in person, or physical) is indeed my standing advice. some people are so dependent and unsure of themselves they may be inclined to want, need, and take advice, any advice..........thus advice must be in the direction of a) doing nothing that anyone else says to do, and

b) of one's own independent will after ample research and self evaluation.

One must never be in the position of having bad results and blaming someone else for them.

good, bad, or no results must be the result of personal rational thought, decision making, and acceptance of the consequences no matter what one chooses to do, even if the choice is to do nothing.

This really is a massive dilemma. If someone is really determined to do it they most likely will. The more informed they are the less risk. The plain fact of the matter is that no matter how much you know about all the diverse methods that people have used successfully and unsuccessfully, the stakes are always very very high.

I have to say that on my own journey the sage advice from EA stopped me from taking a self surgery path. In my desperation I could easily do it, I definitely have the balls for it! In the end I came to the conclusion that doing on my own without backup and people on hand in case of emergency was just to risky. As much as I want rid of my balls I don't want to die in the process.

Having said all that I know the desperate feelings and it can be overwhelming. Earlier tis year I got so desperate I was staring to tourniquet my balls in desperation and from somewhere came a restraining voice that slowed me down and I have been injecting alcohol ever since. I was so close to just slicing them off. This from someone who has researched all the technique of surgical castration and fairly confident that I could do it.

That desperation can compel one to do totally insane things and I don't need to be inebriated or on drugs to take those actions.

Ultimately if someone is so determined to do it they will find a way and I guess the best advice I can offer is take time and learn, research and consider all the data. It may be that in this process you will be pre-occupied for long enough to consider all the facts and then make an informed decision.

Certainly, the support I have found here has probably saved me from doing it and may have saved my life.

The folk here really do care and come right alongside.

Whatever you do be very very careful. There is no way back from some actions.

The thread starter is listed as "guest", hasn't logged in in over a year, and membership has been deleted.

I doubt he's reading this thread anymore.

Oh well, the advice still applies! I must be a time Lord, How did I find this thread and star replying to it!! Unless I am in a time warp!

...or perhaps only just warped...

Previous, but on going experience, leads me to suggest that our "guest" was a sting operation from the UK or the US as I know to my cost. Thank goodness our leaders are able to give expert and sound advice- as somebody said once, "Let's be careful out there".
