Hmm, are you saying that if a guy was in an accident and taken to a hospital, they might a

dminister testosterone to him for some medical reason?

The bracelet is for reassurance. If I am in an accident, it informs medical persons that my lack of testicles was not caused by the accident, but already happened. And the hospital MIGHT consider testosterone, wondering if I was castrated for testicular cancer or other reasons but still required testosterone. The bracelet removes all doubt.

The bracelet also has my Physician's name and phone number, so they can call her for further information.

I submit to you that just as real men don't eat quiche, real

eunuchs know enough about what they are getting into before

they get castrated so that they manage to avoid (or comfortably

accept) osteoporosis, cognitive loss, weight gain, gynecomastia

etc.

I would like to hear from other real eunuchs. How many of you

were aware of ALL of the side effects of castration ahead of

time? How many of you expected to be taking testosterone for

the rest of your life, when you got castrated?

I've been avoiding responding to this thread, so my reply is (as usual) probably off-topic by now.

Suffice to say, I didn't know about all of the side-effects, and haven't managed to avoid (or accept) them, either.
