Re: Scrotum removal complete
Well done, I believe it is the right thing to do. My eunuch husband's scrotum was cut off this morning.

Re: Scrotum removal complete
Thanks for the responses. I've not been in much of a mood to post these past few days but feeling better today. My body has not enjoyed the chemicals and drugs introduced as part of the surgery but I'm doing my best to purge them as naturally as possible. Otherwise, aside from some pretty acute swelling things are settling down.

Did you ever ask about having things done under local, spinal, or epidural? Hospitals seem to be getting better about that sort of thing lately. Whenever I go to one, they even ask me if they have my permission to do blood transfusions if I need them to live. Even though the hospital I got my orchiectomy at usually tried to stick patients with two fancy anesthesiologists to milk insurance money, I made sure everyone at the hospital was aware of my needs and my refusal to sign any consent waivers. By the time I got there for surgery, there wasn't even an anesthesiologist on duty to ask me if I changed my mind. No sedatives, no IV, no antibiotics, no pain meds, no extra local shot for post-op pain, no regrets. The surgeon took everything in stride and chatted with me about local restaurants over my gaping scrotum. Told me not to go grocery shopping on the way home, but I did anyway.
You took a great post-op photo, by the way. Once there are some healed versions to compare, it will serve as a great aid for anyone considering this procedure for themselves.

Re: Scrotum removal complete
My husbands scrotectomy was completed without any complications. The crotch area is slightly swollen but looks very bruised. He says it feels sore rather than painful. It is more comfortable for him to sit with his legs apart and to walk very carefully. My instructions as his nurse are to keep the crotch area clean and sterile during the next couple of weeks.

Both my orchiectomy and the later scrotal excision were done under IV Propofol, which has a very short half life and is not nearly as difficult to get out of your system as is a general anesthesia. It's also very inexpensive and can be administered by a trained nurse rather than an anesthesiologist. In the USA medicine is a business, so of course patients get milked for every dime they have either directly or through their exorbitantly expensive insurance policies. Now my blog is definitely maintained as a way for folks to better understand the pros, cons and general misinformation about castration and I hope it achieves that goal.

Re: Scrotum removal complete
Seanthomas and your best half: Congrats on realizing your goal and having such a wonderfully caring wife to go through it all with you. Your blog is a great work and definitely needed as it really and truly covers many of the mis-conceptions on this topic. Heal fast and enjoy at last.

I haven't seen an empty ball sac in real life, only tgirls with balls and scrotum all gone, i agree it looks so much neater. My scrotum was taken when I was castrated, so i am fully smooth there, and I am glad I didn't have to get it done later.

Re: Scrotum removal complete
Seanthomas,
I haven’
Hi all and thanks for the support! Now I have been remiss in keeping up the blog, as life often gets in the way of "eunuchlife" and things have been rather busy with family, friends, work, etc. Since my last posting related to the opening of my surgical site not much has changed. Healing is very slow but otherwise there is no pain or discomfort. I'm being very mindful of infection and careful keeping things clean and dressed. Otherwise, I'm satisfied with the procedure and despite the setbacks it feels great to be rid of the pesky scrotum. Cosmetically, other than the opening, things look great and when it's all healed I know I'll be pleased having made the choice to go "scrotum-less". I'll try and get an update posted to the blog soon.
