Congrats! 56 days since castration / scrotum removal. Everyone is different, but hopeful your recovery goes well and you love the outcome! For encouragement, I am pretty much fully recovered. Doing things I normally did pre castration. No ill effects other than some warm flashes occasionally in the ...

Ditto to what tohappensoon said!

Congrats! I had mine 48 days ago. I plan on getting back on the bike this week. I miss riding terribly. Really ready to go back out in the woods on my MTB and ride hard.

I decided to forego HRT for now. See how it goes kinda thing. So far, so good. I get a little warm occasionally, especially in ...

What is holding you back, if I may ask..... I mean that seriously.... I thought of this 30 years ago. I think I would have been a better father / husband if I had this done then vs. a vasectomy. Little did I know that at the time of my snip, my sex life was already almost dead.

A guy wanting a testosterone level around 800 or 900 would do the two or three doses. A supply of that is ...

I listened to that interview during my research. He is a bit older looking now than that photo. Also, always had a mask on also, so never got to see his whole face. Nice guy though.

Dr. Fara was professional. He maintained a ...

Interesting (to me) anecdote from the OR and some other random crap:

So, while in Preop, or whatever they call it, I changed into the obligatory gown. They put an IV into the top of my left wrist, the big vein that runs down to the thumb. Got asked the same questions by like 4 people, ya da ya da ...

CF, His service is definitely unique! He (or more specifically, his office manager Judy) asked for a letter with my reasoning. They also asked for a letter from my wife, which I thought was interesting. Anyway, other than that and asking a couple of times if I was sure this is what I wanted, that ...
