I have been physically castrated for 7mo (to the day) now.

It's brain-bending how much this changes your outlook on life.

Sex hormones are mental hormones - they affect your brain. Whether one chooses to replace them or go on another path is one's decision. (I am no-T).

I was eating lunch today (at home) - and I looked around at what is present in my space (all G-rated) in the family room, and I had this random thought about the EA and felt compelled to put this post out to the EA community.

The very weird part was that sex and sexuality didn't matter. I know that's mind-bending for those that are post-puberty, but, it's like "nope" - it doesn't matter. Truly, I don't care.

Shy.

This is where I want to be also. Sex has driven my life since puberty and I'm tired of it. I'm 65 now.

now for over two years and only used testosterone replacement for about eight months at increasingly smaller doses. Currently I'm testosterone free for five months due to increased red blood cell count (stroke and heart attack risks). Although my sex drive is not like it was at age 18, it's still definitely present. Erections may be erratic but I enjoy sex today as much as ever. My wife even claims I am a better lover since loosing my testicles. So don't believe everything you read about the effects of castration, for as stated often here ....... your mileage may vary.

Hey Shy,

Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Sex drive and Sexuality are two different things. Lack of T can eliminate both.

Even with no T for 2.5 years my sexuality never changed my sex drive did lessen but not disappear. My wife also said I am a better lover like being newlyweds again in her own words.

I had a similar thought not that long ago. I've been with the same woman for three years now and our sex today is just like when we first met. The honeymoon still is going on with us.

It is great and we have been married 37 years.

Looking at the positive comments here - I do not in any way want to disrespect those that have travelled the path and with-or-without T been joyful with their partners. {sidebar - I do not have a partner, so that may colour my experiences}

I was just wanting to state how my experience has been - physical castration for me has granted me a complete elimination of sexuality and sexual desire. For me, it was desired and is a good thing.

It may have been on a different thread but I did see where a wife had assisted in the removal of a second testicle, the first having been removed a year earlier. This was my experience as well. One testicle was undescended at birth, brought down when I was 15 but never grew properly and two years ago I was advised to have it removed which I did. At the time the surgeon said he would remove the second as well if I ever showed signs of change which he thought likely.

Then about a year ago it was my wife who suggested I got it done anyway, I saw the surgeon privately and he agreed. My wife was present and fully scrubbed up and was actually allowed to make the final snip and my remaining ball dropped into her hand which she proudly showed me and kissed me as her new eunuch.

No regrets our love is strong and I can look forward to a long eunuch life

Now that s the way it should be done ideally with a partner doing that final cut of emasculation and receiving your last ball like that ! If only more drs would cooperate in letting this happen. Better to have a partner or friend do that last nut cut than a dr you hardly know and to whom it means nothing after years of castrating other men. That first kiss as her new eunuch was a great first reaction to taking your last ball too ! Not something your dr could do for you in the surgery lol ! Another very lucky man with an understanding, hot, and appreciative wife who appreciates men s balls as the family jewels that they are !

I've been chemically castrated for many years and loved it till the side effects kick in. Today I know that not all those side effects were directly caused by castration but they are now all under control and the urge to be castrated is stronger than ever. I'm single and loneliness is hard to live. Sex is the door to love and affection, I can live without sex but living without love and affection is difficult. How do you deal with it ?

Just saw this post Shy. Great to hear you are on a positive track! I totally enjoyed the mental, sexual and (for want of a better word) spiritual place being chemically castrated took me. If I could be more sure of control of the side effects I had, I would do it permanently. Going to try Androcure again on lower dose to see what happens.

Great to hear from you

Side effects were, severe arthritis pain, memory lost, depression to name a few. Arthritis is caused by inflammatory food such as Gluten, starchy food like cereals or carbohydrates, dairy products, sugars and chemicals, including meds. Castrated men are more likely to suffer of arthritis because testosterone is a natural steroid anti inflammatory, once T is depleted chances are that the guy might suffer of arthritis but that can be prevented by avoiding all inflammatory foods. Arthritis is also known to trigger depression, depression amplify arthritis pain, it's a vicious circle, and also cause memory lost and so on. So castrated men into a relationship are less likely to suffer of depression and arthritis. In fact inflammatory foods are the roots of over 200 diseases including cancer, no one should ever eat those foods. I strongly believe that castrated men can remain healthy.

Very interesting. I didn't know about this. Thanks

I believe it was me who had posted of my wife assisting with the removal of my second testicle. She assisted with the cautery tool etc joking about them doing their welding etc. It was a great experience being fully awake and her assisting we had great conversation and joking by the surgeon, my wife and myself. My wife was the one holding my nut and to show it to me. She commented that night she wished she could of dissected it.

I had an interesting message exchange with a member who had talked with a couple of other EA members whose wife / partner had been present or even helped with the castration. Many of the others had found it a meanful experience. I could look at that thru my own lense of reality, but anyone care to take a stab at what that meant? Something the partner was pushing for? Something pushing against but ultimately found it a rewarding experience? Something that drew couples together because it was a shared significant change? Have at it.

Good to hear that, shydusexx, it makes me happy cause it's exactly what i want, it motivates to continue! Thanks

On second thought, I am highjacking someone's post. I will make this a separate thread.
