Re: Happy with your castration???
Over 2 years now. Couldn't be happier. Wish I had done it much sooner.

Re: My experience with Dr. Arnkoff
WOW, over two years now since my surgery. Might as well provide an update. I am completely healed now, of course. I still have my sac but it is much smaller. I cannot feel anything inside of the sac so the cords must have completely retracted or shrunk. For personal reasons, I stopped testosterone ...

Re: My experience with Dr. Arnkoff
It's been seven months and I thought I would update everyone. I've been off HRT since November. Hot flashes are pretty constant but very brief (maybe a minute or two). Certainly tolerable. Sex drive is zero and no erections at all. My wife has a lover and in the past watching her would get my sex ...

Re: My experience with Dr. Arnkoff
Thanks for your thoughts on HRT. I'm almost thinking of not using HRT at all. I need to find out the consequences of no HRT (other than sex drive and erections). I might just prefer being a eunuch.

Re: My experience with Dr. Arnkoff
4 month update. Procedure with Dr. A was July 23rd and it is now 4 months later. Please note: I am 65 years old so my results are likely to be very different from many of you.
The incision is completely healed. Dr. A did a nice job there. All bruising and swelling are gone. However, I still have a ...

Re: My experience with Dr. Arnkoff
Another update: I took this week off from work and I am glad I did. Swelling is now down more than 2/3rds and I hope is almost gone by the time I head to work Monday. Bruises has gone from black to a light shade of purple. It seems I am indeed healing. The incision is not healed and the stitches are ...

Re: My experience with Dr. Arnkoff
Update:
I flew home last night. That gave me all day Saturday, Sunday and most of Monday to heal enough for the flight. This was a good enough amount of time as I got through the 4 hour flight just fine. I wore depends underwear the whole time. When the Doc talked about "drainage" I was thinking ...

My experience with Dr. Arnkoff
I wanted to share my experience with Dr. Arnkoff so others will know what to expect. I scheduled my surgery about 8 weeks in advance. This gave me plenty of time to make sure I wanted to go through with it. Of course, I did and my surgery was a couple of days ago (July 23rd).
