To do or not to do

Post by Philos (imported) »

Hello

It is a great privilege for me which to be among you. That made a few weeks that I was recorded on this site but as my source language is not English (I am a French man), I am not always at ease to express me as I would like it. Also, I would not do many appearances in the forums. However, I learned already much from things with the various very interesting topics suggested on this site.

When I read testimonys of men who underwent a voluntary castration, I note that certain men are satisfied to be castrated and that other men regret having made it. I have a question on this subject: is there a correlation between the satisfaction of castration and the age (starting from a certain age, are the men satisfied to be castrated than the young men)?

If I put this question, it is because I think of the male menopause of the man (myth or reality?) as from 50 years which involves a loss of the libido, if my information is exact. It is thus perhaps probable that a man voluntarily castrated after 50 years is less affected by castration than a young man. What do you think about it?

Yours sincerely.

:)

I am over 60. While I am not experiencing male menopause (if there is such a thing), I do notice a slight decrease in sexual desire. My feeling is that an older man would experience a lesser effect of castration than a younger more virile man.

So I find this question of great interest. The only problem is that the answers will be subjective and not scientific since there is no way to perform a castration twice on a person, once when young and again when old in order to make a proper comparison.

I am 57 and never felt the slightest drop in sexual desire -- until using DP. I had a dramitic drop in t-levels with some side-effects. But the biggest fan is my wife. Less pressure and now more closeness. She definately liked our drives closer. This seems to mirror a lot of statements from men married for a long time.

This is exactly what I've been worried about too. I'm planning to begin chemical castration, and I have normal T levels (mid 500s)--I'm 28 and physically a very healthy male. There's a big difference between jumping from a curb versus jumping from a third-floor window, and diet probably has a lot to do with it too. Let's be honest here--T has a lot of good effects along with some of the more unsavory ones--it's a useful metabolic hormone and it has a big effect on promoting mental function. I'm REALLY glad that some of the advice from people here has kept me from jumping right into this, since if you're in my position, there is a definite tradeoff to be made.

I'll discuss this more in another thread where I more formally introduce myself and discuss my goals (I don't want to hijack your thread), but you've really nailed an issue that I want to see explored more.

Go for it! I have no regrets!

Everyone is different, age might seem to indicate that some older eunuchs enjoy their lives more or have less disatisfaction after castration, but I really believe that age doesn't factor in as much as we might think. If you truly want and need to be castrated, you won't regret it. I think some younger men who have gotten castrated were into fantasy and took the next step of actually getting castrated, then they regretted it. So I think it's the "fantasy angle" that causes some to regret their castrations.

I'm 25 and was castrated 4 years ago, and did have some problems after castration with depression - some of which can probably be attributed to the sudden drop in testosterone and issues that I was struggling with. Though everyone is different, I think younger people will probably notice a bigger difference.

Nobody can say "do it" or "don't do it", this is your decision and you are unique! The more you can explore your reasons for wanting castration before doing anything, the less troubles you will probably face after.

If you can lay these issues to rest without surgery, you will be happier - surgery is not a good way to go! HOWEVER, I am a young-ish eunuch who is 99.9% happy with who I am today. :) I would not change what was done, though I would like to have worked through the issues that led me here with myself before going through surgery.

Hello

I would like to thank you all for your welcome answers. I excuse myself not to have answered you earlier but I exchanged some messages with Frenchcast during these last days. I made a point of also answering each one among you presenting as much as possible some new ideas and questions.

Thank you once again. That serenity is with you.

Yours sincerely.

Hello Kangan

Thank you for your answer. I am happy my question did not leave you indifferent. Although men can’t be castrated twice (once when he is young and once when he is older), the correlation to which I referred related to the comparison between the two groups of individuals and not for each individual (I do not know if I express myself well, it is a little difficult for me, I know that I have progress to make but I do not despair !). If it was a joke, I don’t mind ! By the way, laughing is good for health and in France we used to say : « le rire est le propre de l’Homme ».

Hello Don

Thank you for your answer. I am very happy for you that your wife is satisfied with this new closeness. But I am afraid not to have understood the direction of your last sentence (french people have no gift for languages, you know !).
