EA Forums

One member asked about my opinion of my implants. Occurs to me several of you might be interested, so here's the gist:

The silicone prostheses come in 4 sizes, extra-small, small, medium and large. Google "Coloplast Torosa" for info. The doctor gave me the mediums (I think) because he said the scrotum had shrunk over the years. The shells are silicone, filled with saline, so in the event of leakage the saline would be harmlessly absorbed. They are egg shaped, not exhibiting that slightly flat profile of real balls. They are firm, with some slight give when squeezed. I had an inguinal orchiectomy, through two incisions in the abdomen just above the pubic line, so the stumps are way up in my abdomen out of the way. The prosthetics are positioned so they slip past each other and then attached on one end to the scrotum wall to keep them from wandering around or migrating upwards. The attachments are very clever, and they float in the scrotum just like real balls. Oddly, I still get that pleasant feeling when they are fondled, so that sensation comes not from the balls themselves but from the scrotum. I've had no problems and am very happy with them. Note, however, that they were put in place through the inguinal canal, so I had no incisions in the scrotum. I've read complaints that these prosthetics don't "hang" naturally, but that may be a result of insertion through a scrotal incision, with a complication of scar tissue forming. Just a guess. Mine hang quite naturally.

Deez nuts.

Thanks for posting your info on here. Most of the men on this forum don t choose to get artificial implant balls. So, you are one of the few who have them to tell us what they are like and if they work for you. My dr doesn t know much about them but what he reads. Most men don t seem to tell their drs or anyone else what they are like to have in and if they have any problems with them short or long term. You getting the silicone filled balls is rarer yet, since most men get the solid versions.

Thanks again from us men who are unwillingly needing this info and the details from other men who have already gone through this before us.

Do tell!

I was offered plastic nuts. I can't remember what there made of, but I was told that they often gave problems, and so I chose against having them. Now the scrotum is gone too, that pretty much settles the matter here!

So a never did find out what you can do with rubber nuts.

-Still curious......

I too was offered prosthetic testicles and when asked "what for" my urologist replied they were to restore the appearance of the genitals and make me feel "whole". No thanks, I could not wrap my mind silicone nuts.

Now had he offered me brass balls I might have reconsidered.

I was told I could have fake one but don't like that idea for myself!

why get fake when a guy who wanted them out, succeeds.

Come on, guys!

Someone must know what you can do with rubber nuts, apart from look at them. I'm intrigued, even if it would be hard to sell me a set!

The fake implants are mainly aimed at and sold to men and boys who lost their ball or balls against their will to injuries and medical problems. They are not out to lose their balls or dislike them. If they loose a nut or both they d prefer to look like they still have 2 balls in their sacks.

That heads off a lot of questions and getting personal about fertility, testosterone, impotence, how they lost them, sex drive, and endless questions both men and women would want to ask them if they are obviously missing balls.

Men seeking removal of their balls on purpose and intending to be obviously nutless wouldn t be likely to want fake ball implants. That s why so few men or eunuchs on here have implants. Most of the men on here chose to lose their balls intentionally. There aren t that many unwilling eunuchs on this forum who post a lot to give their viewpoints and experiences in these forums. And many of the eunuchs not choosing to lose their balls accept it openly and choose not to get fake balls even if they didn t want to lose their real ones.

I m guessing boys and young men in school, sports, and actively dating are more likely to choose getting fake implants than most married men, widows, or older men. Also men into sports and fitness and more often nude with lots of strangers would be more likely to get fake balls to minimize other people s questions and comments.

Its not necessarily hiding a missing ball as much as not publicizing it to everyone who sees you nude. Being naked in public doesn t require us to disclose our bed partners, sexual orientations, kinks, or other personal information to everyone who sees us.

I can think of a lot of imaginative sex acts and stunts that real balls would find painful and fake balls wouldn t feel at all. Just use your imagination of what you could do if your balls never felt any pain.

".... and fake balls wouldn't feel at all. ..."

Hmm... You squeeze, I'll squeeze, and the first to blink buys the beer?

I guess there are practical aspects I'm missing out on....

Marcie Bowers uses the silicon balls during surgery for transgender men (female to male). Marcie loves to say, "I use artificial testicles made in Rio de Janeiro. Yes, I put Brazil nuts in my men."

i haven't had them removed yet but I'd be tempted to fly to the USA, see Mark Arnkoff (because no one allows you to voluntarily do it here), have him remove them, put some plastic ones in and come back to my gf in a few weeks time and pretend like nothing happened.

Hahaha, like young men getting vasectomies and not telling their girlfrirnds. Then later on the girlfriend claims to be pregnant by him. He pulls out his vasectomy receipt from long ago and proves its not his baby and she has been impregnated by some other man.

Its saved some men from lies that would have caused marriages, child support payments, and unknowingly raising some other man s kids without knowing or agreeing to it.

Hi!

In advance: I do no longer consider myself male, so I'm not a guy, nor am I a thing. And, since I recently put a lot of effort in researching my biography, that is about the point where I was 19 years ago as well. So basically, I wasn't even a man before I got castrated.

Nonetheless, I am one of those persons who seeked removal of my balls on purpose, while not necessarily intending to be obviously nutless, and I wanted fake ball implants. So, as answer to Freddyjack - Because I have decided so. Anyway, I am in the position to be able to share the experience of having testicular implants as voluntary neutrois.

As you can read in my posts on my castration here http://forums.eunuch.org/showthread.php ... post269571 and further down in that thread, I underwent bilateral inguinal castration. For that, the testicles and related tissue like chords were removed through two horizontal cuts, one on each side, above the penis root.

At the same time, two silicone implants were inserted. I had specifically requested the biggest implants available (eurosilicone, 3.3x5.3 cm, see their catalog). One of the reasons for implants was to prevent shrinkage of the scrotal skin (which might be needed later). Another notion was to be able to use the filled scrotum as anchor point for any sorts of games, like chastity devices, ball rings with a chain attached, and whatever imagination can come up with. Now, almost 20 months later, my self-conception has somewhat changed, as have my sexual desires (that may have something to do with the altered hormone status) and maybe I would decide completely against implants, but at the time of surgery, I did in favor.

In other places I had read (from people that sadly involuntarily lost one or two testicles to an accident or to cancer) that it was mainly the attaching of the implants to some tissue inside the scrotum that led to problems. Obviously, the relatively free movement of unattached implants allows for adjustment to different postures and movements, for example sitting on a bike.

On the other hand, unattached implants are less accessible to the immune system. It might get more problematic if an inflammation occurs. But then, I am not a medical expert.

I specifically had requested from the surgeon that my implants should be left unattached. During the operation, to get my testicles out and the implants in, the inguinal canal has to be opened up enough to give passage to those things. At the end of the surgery, the canals were somehow sutured tighter or completely closed with dissolvable suture, I don't know exactly, to make sure that the unattached implants cannot escape from the scrotum into the abdomen. To relieve these sutures, the testicles were attached also by dissolvable sutures to the base of the scrotum.

These sutures were responsible for most of the pain and irritation of the first 4-6 weeks after surgery. Regularly, the attachment points inside the scrotum would hurt as when skin is bruised, like a sharp pulsating pinch. Sometimes it was almost unbearable to sit with that, especially inconvenient when attending a concert. One could feel these stem sutures when palpating the implants inside the scrotum (which I carefully started on day two after surgery or so). I could not have lived forever with that.

After some weeks, I did not realize the exact time, I noticed the right implant was finally moving freely (and it still does as of today). It feels relatively soft to the touch and deforms at a pinch, about as I remember from the testicles. They had been much smaller in the first place, so the feeling is not directly comparable. There is no pain whatsoever when pinching or moving around the implant from the outside.

Unfortunately, the story on the left implant went differently. Around the time I noticed the right one being free, the pain on the left side went from pinching to pulsatingly stabbing, with sleepless nights, swelling and subsiding. In a few days, the "testicle" was about 1.5 times the size of the other one, and it was tugged against the upper end of the scrotum. What happened was that the whole thing got inflamed, and quickly somehow a tissue pocket built around the implant, enclosing it and attaching it to the upper end of the scrotum.

When it didn't diminish the following days, I went to my general practitioner (whom I had talked about the upcoming castration before), and he offered some antibiotics. Although, almost at the same time I caught a cold, and the jump-started immune system obviously cleaned that inflammation off as well. Next time, I'd probably not wait as long and go to the emergency room.

What I notice nowadays, 20 months after the surgery, is some pain mainly from the left inguinal canal. When I experience flatulences, the most pain comes from there, not the intestines, like a dull pressure or burning sensation. The left implant is clearly enclosed by a tissue capsule, it is harder to the feel, not as deformable at squeezing as the right one, and not freely movable, although it's loose enough to not cause any problems.

Due to the big implants it is easily possible to use the filled scrotum as an attachment point for rings etc. Although, due to the issue with the left implant, in my case very tight devices are not a good idea, e.g. the vice is not really wearable.

Thanks for that great detailed info ! This is exactly what men need to know from other men with implants to help them decide whether to get implants or not and to hear the pros and cons to weight in making their choices. The best source of this information is men with implants, not drs. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experiences.
