Meaning you actually have to get testosterone externally? Oh, my. I though vasectomies were pretty simple. Didn't know it turned you just as much into a "eunuch" as a castration does.
This is from the same article on Wikipedia
After vasectomy, the testes remain in the scrotum where Leydig cells continue to produce testosterone and other male hormones that continue to be secreted into the blood stream. One study found that sexual desire after vasectomy was diminished in 6% of vasectomized men,[18] whereas other studies find higher rates of diminished sexual desire, for example nearly 20%.[19]
