Re: Reasons for scrotectomy
I liked the fact my doctor was able to do both at the same time. I didn't see the need for an empty bag of skin hanging below my penis. When it came to planning the surgery, the hardest thing for me was having to factor in the recovery time. I am fairly active and being told not to do anything ...

Re: Finally eunuch!!!
Congratulations. I am about six months in as a eunuch and totally satisfied with the decision and the way it healed. I am fairly active and having to refrain from riding my bike for 5 or 6 weeks was the hardest part.

Re: First visit to Doctors
I started by finding a therapist who specialized in transgendered and non-binary patients. He had helped other patients get orchiectomies so he already knew the doctors who perform the procedure, how to work with insurance, and what steps to take. When it was time to contact the plastic surgeon who ...

Re: My Eunuch Birthday
Two weeks post castration and scrotectomy. I was expecting more pain, and thankfully, it wasn't bad. Before the Orchiectomy, I was riding my bike 8-10 miles per day. Being limited to walking has been the hardest part of recovery. Next week, I have the follow up appointment with the surgeon.

Re: Do eunuchs fall in love?
I have never been interested in dating or relationships. I didn't date in high school, went to a college with two males for every female, and didn't date after college. It took me 50 years to become a eunuch and doubt I will suddenly get into a relationship.

My Eunuch Birthday
I was castrated today after wanting it for years. When I discovered the Eunuch Archive, I really didn't think the day would come. There weren't too many options back then. Now, I was able to do it close to home and had insurance cover much of the expenses (actually, I don't know how much it costs ...

Re: Timing for starting Hormone Replacement after Orchiectomy
I was castrated today and see the doctor next Wednesday where I can hopefully begin hormones. I ride 8-10 miles a day on my bike and really don't want to lose the muscle mass and strength.

Timing for starting Hormone Replacement after Orchiectomy
I got the runaround with the doctors. I scheduled an appointment with one doctor and she said she wasn't comfortable leading my care when it comes to hormone replacement. She referred me to another doctor. When I contacted that doctor, the earliest I could schedule an appointment is a month after ...

Recovery Time
I have a date set for castration in May. I know I have time to make arrangements, but was wondering what to expect for the recovery. I hope to have the scrotum removed as well, which I understand makes the recovery take longer.
While I could go home the same day, I was planning on staying at a ...

Re: Seeking feedback
I can't help but wonder what motivates the father to have his son live as a eunuch. I am not sure what I would know about eunuchs if I wasn't personally interested in castration.
