Orchitectomy on Old people

[cutnbulls2ox (imported)]

Thanks for a very interesting post here MajicDan.

You have gone thru a life cycle that makes a lot of sense for a lot of men to follow and learn from. In your case you got your vasectomy done really young at age 20, so I m guessing you never had any kids and chose to be a non breeder by choice as a young man. Lots of men are freely chosing not to breed any kids. You just decided at a younger age than most men do. I wanted to be kid free for life as a teen. I was too young to get a vasectomy and I couldn t wait to turn 18 and get my vasectomy as soon as I could. In the meantime, I read everything I could about birth control and vasectomies and castration. I started reading about some men getting chronic pain from vasectomies and having different ball problems like low T and atrophy years after their vasectomies from sperm build up damage and immune system responses attacking their pent up sperm and attacking their testicles after the responses triggered to dissolve all that daily sperm production. Some people described vasectomies as slow castrations for some men. That made me hold off on getting a vasectomy since I enjoy the intense pleasures of having balls, even if I don t want or need the sperm production of balls.

Sorry to hear about your very llong term and chronic testicle pains and your later prostate cancer. Your balls got a double reason to be castrated with that chronic pain and later prostate cancer after your castration.

Your prostate cancer showing up after your castration proves that castration later in life and even your slow testicle damage and atrophy from 30 years of vasectomy did not prevent prostate cancer later. Too many men think castration will make prostate cancer impossible. You prove that is false. Geldings can still get prostate cancer after their balls are cut off, like you did.

Getting the prostate cancer made it necessary to end your testosterone completely. Its so great you are handling that so well and the side affects on your body of no T at all. You set a good example for us younger men to follow as we age and face similar male problems with our bodies and manhoods.

At 20 years old you willingly got sterilized. Years later, you willingly got castrated. Then years later stopped getting all T in your body. And you ve handled it all so well ! You could never imagine doing all that when you were 20 years old. But now, at those later ages, you did it all and handled it all. That s great !

I think all boys and younger men should hear from older men like you over their lives to learn more about how men age and what happens to our male sex organs and bodies as we age. It helps makes of all ages think about and prepare for their own lives and body changes.

Thanks for posting your experiences for other men to learn from and setting a great example for us men to follow when its our turn to get sterilized, castrated, and no T and no more sex some day !

But kids or no kids lots of men, 1 out of every 6 men, decide to get vasectomies at some point in their lives.

Especially if you are older, the health is a main aspect. Often it's too late. Please more postings from older males and their experience. To prevent PC is not really false. I think so.

I agree that castration does slow down and hold off prostate cancer in men. The trouble is most men get castrated after they have prostate cancer serious enough to notice it. Then the cancer is well established in his body. Castration at that point will still help slow his cancer growth and spreading. But its not as effective as getting castrated before you develop prostate cancer.

But it has been proven that eunuchs can still get prostate cancer. Usually much later in life and slower progressing prostate cancers than in men with balls and higher T levels.

I also agree that males of all ages should openly talk about and post and teach all younger males about puberty, sex, marriage, birth control, vasectomies, circumcision, castration, hormones, and all aspects of the male bodies and sex organs that we all share and go through our lives with as males. Too much of this information isn t being passed on to younger men and boys by older men. Middle aged men need info from older men too. Even older men profit from hearing other men who already had cancers or castrations and can tell them what its like and what to expect.

Thx for reply. But especially older males with a view for health, such comments are welcome. The most people do not think about health. That's a mistake.

I think that the headache of trying to find contractors who can build a Death Star which the Rebel Alliance can’t easily blow up, and the difficulty finding anyone willing to insure it, got to him in the end!

Hi All

I castrated myself sometime ago , I was worried I might need help but its been most successful and I did not. I have been to an urologist who confirmed the result but said I did not need further surgery. I wanted him to tidy things up but did not push the matter. I am an old guy who wanted to get rid of sexual desire and erections and have done that. I told my wife that I'm castrated . a little white lie I told her it was a fall that did the damage . She seems very happy . I think its good for old guys , well it is good for me

Nature seems to agree with you Philthelast in castrating older men. Most men do experience dropping testosterone levels much lower than when they were younger. And many older men experience gradual and milder versions of the changes of castration in their bodies, sex drive, virility, and lack of T just from aging alone.
