I think Dr. Kimmel is still doing castrations and if you've had a cancer scare it whould be a lot easier to find a doctor willing to perform the procedure.

If you're uncertain, maybe you should think about trying chemical castration first to make sure it's for you. That way you can be certain before you cross the point of no return.

Whatever you decide, PLEASE be safe and have a doctor perform the surgery.

Since you consider yourself Gay, I guess you have no desire to father childern. So that is of no concern. From what you say here, you seem to have a sexual fantasy about castration. That in itself is not a good reason. If your testicles a producing the proper amount of testosterone, you can't beat what your body makes. Although HRT works for sexual performance, it's not delivered at a constant rate that your body does. I'm on 300 mg. depo-testosterone every three weeks now. I just changed from every 4 weeks, today. At 4 weeks, the last week, I was feeling a little tired. The doseage you recieve is experimental until you get it right. You also need to consider that it is not legal to get testosterone in the US without a prescription, so you need to find a doctor that is willing to work with you.

Here you say the empty scrotum look has an alure to you, but in your profile you mention that you desire nullification. With that you don't need HRT to achieve what you don't have the equipment for. If you don't take HRT there are many other side effects you will have to deal with. Read the post here on the effects of castration. read all you can here. There have been many here that were or are in the same boat your in. Learn from their mistakes and their victories. There are many caring people here that are willing to advise you, but the bottom line is, the decision is yours. Don't make it without all the info you can get. Good luck, Steve
