Urethral reroute revision

[Hash (imported)]

Is splitting your glans that much less bloody than cutting it off yourself, maybe incrementally?

" That's a good question Sandi, I think it would work. To split my glans in half I actually only used boiling water and a scalpel. I tied it off and waited until it was numb, then made small cuts over and over. It took several weeks but I was finally able to split it and keep it split. As for using this method to cut off my penis, well, it could/should work too. The corpus cavenosums are actually spongy until filled with blood. I think I'd have to tie my penis off so it wouldn't fill with blood. Then make small slow cuts on both sides. Do this over sever days/weeks, a penis should come off pretty easy, thought there is an Cavernous artery that might be difficulty to stop from bleeding unless your penis is tied off. I might consider it, though I'm fond of having Dr. J...'s do it. I'm also mulling over whether during my next appointment I should ask her if she'll remove my shaft skin and sew my little nub down onto my mons pubis or maybe she'll remove the shaft skin and hide my penis underneath what remains. That way it would look as though I didn't have a penis, we'll see. All in all, I've looked at the parachute method of a partial penectomy ( http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?pid=S16 ... ci_arttext ) it would work for me.

P.S. I just tested my reroute again and I'm really puzzled, I have over 1 inch in depth and at least 2 1/2 circumference. When I stick my finger inside, it's the weirdest sensation, and I start getting a semi-erection. I think I'm touching the "dorsal nerve," which is on the top side of my penis. So I think my reroute goes between both corpus cavernosums all the way to the dorsal nerve, maybe not, but it sure feels that way.

I had told her that I liked my original reroute, which I told her is like a vagina to me. She told me I'd be happy with her revision work, that I'd never pee from my penis again, which I told her I never wanted to do, but this hole is huge. From all the urethral reroutes I've seen, mine is the biggest, though you never see men spreading open their reroutes, mine's a small vagina.

I had in mind cutting the glans off rather than the whole penis. I was thinking that wouldn't involve major arteries like the shaft of you penis, and since you've already made a major cut in it, I thought you'd have a good handle on how much bleeding to expect. Even if you decide to take your whole penis off that way, starting with the glans might be a good first step. Whatever you decide, be careful. We care about you a lot.

Thanks Sandi for your input, I guess I'd rather just have the whole penis removed, but I vacillate between removing it and not removing it. If I did remove the glans the rest would soon follow. Thanks for caring about me. I did post pictures on malebodymods.com, but now I can't get on the site for some reason.

That sounds pretty amazing. I am glad you are finally happy.

I am pretty happy Scary, but not finally. Won't be finally happy until the penis is gone. I want it gone bad most days, other days not so much. It's such a hard decision to make, but I do know this about myself, I'll finally go through with it one way or the other and I know I'll wonder what was all the fuss about. My penis is small, useless, and now even more wobbly.

Having this complete reroute where a whole section of my urethra was removed, has made my penis loose and even more wobbly. If you didn't know, the urethra beneath the scrotum and extending into the male body is larger than at the glans. So when that huge section is removed, your penis is not as strongly connected. The urethra is actually just as important to an erection as the two corpus cavernosums. If you get an erection and feel below your penis, you'll notice how big your urethra is and how important it is in strengthening the erection. (Sandi you'll have to feel Tim's or Dave's or any erect penis will do).

Imagine a huge chunk cut out. Think of the urethra as a straw, a plastic store bought straw, which are made of a heavier plastic. If a huge section of the straw was cut out, it wouldn't be as strong, it would be more flexible. So the way I see it, I've actually had a 1/3 penectomy since my urethra straw has been severed and a large section removed. Some reroutes, like my previous one, didn't remove a section of the urethra, it just split it in half and stitched it to the sides. This time, Dr. J removed a whole section of the urethra.

I woke up today feeling really bad. Must have went to the bathroom 4-5 times during the night. Had pain in my side so called my regular doctor, she was out but they had a different female doctor that I could see at 9:15am, so I went in. She was older, maybe 50, treated me nice and asked a ton of questions. I told her I was castrated and that I had a urethrostomy surgery back on June 6th. So she asked me to lie down, felt around my stomach then asked me to stand up and lower my shorts, which I did. She told me to lie back down and then she shocked me by saying, "You've still have your penis, I'm surprised." She moved it around, the whole 1 1/2 inches looking over it carefully. "You've had some real trauma to your penis." I told her it was from my past and the holes were from piercings. "Why didn't they remove it when you had the urethrostomy?" Now I was shocked and I told her my urologist didn't want to remove it. "Do you still have erections?" she asked. Not really I answered. "And now with the urethrostomy you don't use it to urinate?" "No, I have to sit to pee," I replied. "Let me look at your urethrostomy. So she asked me to spread my legs and she took a good look. "There's no infection inside there and that's a very deep urethrostomy." The nurse came in and said something to her (didn't see if the nurse saw me spread open) and then she told me, "You do have an infection and a high fever. I'm going to give you an antibiotic. Are you allergic to anything or antibiotics?" Penicillin. "O.K." she said, then bending between my legs, she said, "She stitched you up well. You can pull your shorts up." Then she gave me directions on taking the antibiotic and asked where I wanted the prescription sent. We said goodbye and she said, "Hope to see you again!" The prescription was for "levofloxacin" once a day for seven days. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levoquin Believe me I'm going to use every last one. Not sure about this doctor, I don't think she's ever seen anything like me before, but that statement, "Why didn't they remove it when you had the urethrostomy," has me perplexed. Maybe she read about urethrostomies and just made a general conclusion that they remove the penis. I know from studying that they don't always remove the penis, mostly only when cancerous. Guess we'll never know what she was thinking, but it was interesting even though I was in pain. I'm still in pain.

Hope that you get better quickly, Hash.

PS: Please empty your mailbox so I can send you a PM.

Hash, did she say where the infection was coming from? The levofloxacin should take care it. Hope you feel better and best wishes!

If she was surprised that you still had it, maybe removing it isn't such a far-out proposition to at least some doctors. A different doctor might be willing to take it off for you, now that it's in the shape it's in. That would certainly be safer than a do-it-yourself job and probably a lot neater in the final appearance. But your first order of business is getting healthy. Hope the antibiotic does the trick quickly.
