older couple and experience

[hans-europ (imported)]

Hello,

Perhaps there is an older married couple in the same situation and we can discuss the experience. My wife is very interested to lower sexual activities. We are interested about your negative and positive results with Androcur. About dosage and the time you take. Maybe it’s a good help for both parts in marriage. Thank you very much.

Are you interested in just lowering the sexual activities. That is only reduce desires for intercourse. In that case masturbation would be the choice. Reducing the hormone levels will have other effects on the body and mind.

Your profile has you listed as interests in others castration. This may be more of a fantasy on being castrated then the real desire.

I wonder if you can turn this around and ask her about increasing her interest in sex? If she is menopausal Google BioIdentical Hormone Replacement and talk to her about it.

Castration effects much more (In my experience) then just sex drive.

Thanks for replies! Wife is for lowering sexual activities. Masturbation is not really an alternative and brings not really a satisfaction. We know that there are some side effects. But we think not really very heavy. A great help will be, some in formations of couples are in same situation. Speaking about castration can be, too. Maybe to start with pills will be better. Correct, that castration is at the moment only in discussion. A help and more in formations are welcome.

You are very wrong in your belief that the side effects not "heavy". Side effects will effect your health. Your body will change. If castrated you may have no desire to have any sex at all. Your wife will be left unsatisfied. The way you think, act and love will all change. The way you love her will change. There is a very good chance that you will get osteoporosis. The rate is very high for those that do not go on some hormones. They also give females some low dose of male hormones to increase the desire to have more sex.

Going on hormone blockers would be a good idea. But first really think about why you want to go down this path. Perhaps if your wife would go on some female hormone replacement, her desire to have sex could change.

There are countless threads in here about the side effects of castration. Many threads on taking androcur. Do a little digging and many of your questions will be answered.

Dear Bobbie, thank you very much for fast answer. We read about and of course when taking chemicals there are always some side effects. My wife prefers to stimulate herself and I nit interested in having an intercourse. I accept and marriage is for a while under this aspect. You must know, we are ready for the change. You must be sure in mind, if you want to go this way. Your mind is, that she should takes hormones and so we can have sexual activities, as usual. We are sure and ready, we want to change! Wife will NOT take any hormones. The questions is – are chemicals better or is it better, easier, you make the step for castration? At the moment she makes pressure for sterilization. Your help is very nice. Hope some other couples will find some more in formations about problems in marriage.

Seems like this idea is coming from your wife and not you. Why would your wife want to sterilize you? Is she afraid that you would get her pregnant? If she is around your age it should not be a problem. Why would she want to take away your enjoyment? Why does she want to alter you? For most, castration should be the choice of the man. Is she really looking out for your own good.

Yes chemicals are better to do a test. You can always change your mind.

Correct, the wish and the idea is coming from my wife. We will explain. My wife is a little bit on the dominant side. She enjoys and likes, that I am in sexual control. All Is coming from her side and not from myself.. The sterilization is a point, because she will be sure, that nothings can be happen. Not correct. She can get be pregnant. Don’t ask how long. But yet its possible. She likes and prefers castration. But we are seeking for an alternative. WE are not really sure, what’s the best. Here we are seeking a help. And maybe we can find a similar thinking couple. There are surely similar couples having same problems. What’s your mind? Thank you and good luck. What’s your situation?

My wife has avoided sex for the last few years as her vagina is dry and penetration hurts her. She also does not like any of the lubricants as they are sticky and make her vagina itch. She is not on hormone replacement and we do not want that because of the side effects.

We always sleep in the nude, cuddling each other. This was a real problem at first and still is somewhat frustrating for me without occasional sex. She will not masturbate me because she dislikes the sticky gooey mess. Thus, I don't get any satisfying relief.

Androcur and other surpressants are not a possibility for me. My only hope is that somehow I can find a way to get my doctor to recommend castration and penectomy.

I know that this does not help to answer your question. Keep us posted on any solutions which you find.

I don't see that there is any harm in experimenting with chemical castration to see if that will fit your needs. If it doesn't work out like you think, it is easy to discontinue and go back to where you are now- no harm, no foul. But if, on the other hand, you find it suits your situation well, you can continue it or try to make it permanent. Just be sure you do give it a lengthy test (6 months or more) if you find it acceptable because some of the effects take some time to manifest themselves. And believe me, there are plenty in addition to the loss of libido.

I am married, 62 and castrated. I was in much the same situation as you are; my wife had lost her interest in sex. We did an extended period with chemical castration (over 2 years) and it worked well for our sexual needs. But it has also introduced some other problems like osteopina and anemia. So now I take additional calcium and iron every day. I also take a small amount of testosterone because I found being without any, i lost too much strength and energy. My testosterone level is still well below normal and not enough to make me horny again but it has given me some strength back plus more energy.

But also remember that everyone can be affected slightly differently and things are not always similar for everyone. I think if you go into it with an open mind and watch objectively for a fair time you will know if surgical castration would suit you and your situation.
