Right testicle at 28 (2007) left at 32 (2010)

Ideally immediately on the birth of my son. The pain issues I had later were not worth the trouble. I kept them around because my wife and I wanted more kids. After her hysterectomy the left one went.

I am a firm believer it should be an elective surgery, especially for anyone with prostate cancer risks. Women have radical hysterectomy oophorectomies for similar reasons. Even women as young as 18, men should have the same rights. Some prostate cancer is aggressive and hits young men.

3) Did you ever think that you were Male-to-Female before you discovered Eunuch as a gender identity? What age were you when you first discovered

“eunuch”?

Not as such. If I could magically switch to a female body with all working parts I might be tempted.

I was around 19 when I went to the urologist for my first surgery scrotal exploratory that turned into an orchiopexy. When I went back to the hospital for pre-op tests the nurse assumed I was there to have the same testicle removed. I wasn't but later I floated the idea to the urologist who would not even consider it at my age. Her actual words where "you cut this one off then if you have a problem with the other one you cut it off too?" So yeah, I knew of it around that age.

No.

I do use TRT. I am down to a half an amp of 125mg (so that should be 66.5mg) every 2 weeks now.
