Help me kill my boners please!

[WannaBeSmall (imported)]

As you might already know, if you've followed my journal thread, I've been on 100mg Androcur and 60mg Raloxifene daily for approaching 6 months. Throughout that time, I've not really noticed much of a difference in my ability to get hard (which, from what I've read, isn't too rare for someone with low testosterone).

so I'm wondering what I can do to totally kill my boners. I was considering Estrofem... but I don't want any feminising effects..

can anyone recommend anything? My primary goal is to shrink my dick!

thanks!

If it is seriously your long term goal, would it not make more sense to seek surgical castration and a penectomy rather than increase the drugs you introduce into you body? Maybe I am speaking out of turn here, but personally knowing what I do about testosterone deprivation and erections, you may be barking up the wrong tree. I've been surgically castrated for going on three years now and completely off testosterone for almost eight months and can still get an erection and occasionally even awake with one.

That said, I realize that you can stop the hormones at any time should you choose, but surgery is irreversible.

Id like my dick smaller, not removed!

But yes, lowering testosterone clearly isn't doing the trick.. although I still want to continue doing it, as I like the other effects (body hair etc)

Seanthomas Mentioned getting castrated surgically and I agree if you are 100% serious.

Even post castration you may still be able to get erect but this usually starts to drop off after a period of time.

Your libido should settle down to be about 90% less than it is now but don't expect zero erections and zero sex drive.

However if you decide that this is not for you then apart from being infertile the only way back is a life on TRT.

TRT supplementation is no big deal providing you can move away from creams and go on to injectables.

Also there is the benefit of being able to control your sex drive by the amount of Testosterone you take.

Erections are pretty complex both hormonally and psychologically. It is not guaranteed that castration will entirely get rid of them. Most guys indicate their interest reduces, but that isn't necessarily the same (although can be related) to being able to get one.

The only drug with a very significant and quick-acting prevention of erections is Edronax. There are many other drugs where erectile dysfunction is a possible side effect but still not really a sure thing and varies in effectiveness.

@WannaBeSmall -- I thought you already did Edronax and posted pictures showing that it shrunk your cock and made erections impossible...

Most people will need about 10-14 days on 150mg/day of androcur to get a good effect, then drop to 100 and later 50mg per day.

Indeed I did! Although it only lasts while you're on the drug, and it's not something I'd like to take long term. However I have restarted it as of yesterday, so I'll see how it works alongside my Androcur!

I've been looking into this...sort of..in search for permanent erectile dysfunction. There really is no such thing to be found on an ordinary web search. Everybody just wants bigger and bigger cocks. Plenty of info about that..

What I'm finding leads to damaging or interrupting the nerves in the penis that help support erections. Also, I'm thinking that erections may be supported by functions of the prostate, because the prostate has a lot to do with your libido..maybe as much or more than your testicles (especially since You might not have any..)

I'm going to have a TURP procedure soon. You might ask some of the guys that have already had prostate work...

I had a TUIP where they do an trans urethral Incision of the prostate but not full Resection of the prostate. It made me fully incontinent for a while (and now mostly IC) and may have affected my erections to a point, but did not eliminate them. Notably, it did change my ejaculations (hard to describe, but different) and it seems it significantly reduced my ability to have a prostate orgasm. As to the OP, I will finally be starting Depo Provera shots soon - my wife and I have decided on January 1, if not before. Hoping that will work for me.
