• Penile shrinkage?

Posted: **Thu Mar 20, 2008 10:26 am**

Before: Length 7 1/4" Girth 6"

15 years after castration: Length 5" Girth 5"

I hope this helps. Most of the shrinkage happened in the first 5 years. I can still get hard several times a day and orgasm but don't have much desire or need to. The lack of nocturnal erections is what causes the shrinkage from what I've been told. The same effect can be seen in men wearing chastity tubes that prevent erection even with testicles intact.

I think there are too many variables. The pubic fat pad for example is larger on me then when I was younger / pre op. So reporting that I had "less" penile length might be correct but it would not be because of of my castration surgery. Its also easy to get it confused with scrotal size. Does the scrotum shrink post op? Is it because of androgens? The simple fact that its full of testicles vs not? Again? I don't know. It would be interesting to find out.

And btw please - Don't get me wrong I think its a good idea to try to dispel myths. I for one would like to know for example if anyone post orchi really has clear ejaculations? I "think" the fiction writers assume the white part of ejaculations are sperm but I can report for example that its not become clear, watery or anything but maybe more lumpy. Whats THAT about? I dunno....

The only academic article that I have found to date that mentions it is by C.S.Higano (Side effects of androgen deprivation therapy: Monitoring and minimizing toxicity. Urology, 61 (2003), 32-38). When contacted about her research, she said that it was only anecdotal from talking with her prostate cancer patients who had been chemically castrated.

I would like to have some REAL data to counter the comment (and to give some real information here on the Archive).

Are there any members here who have measured their penis before and after either chemical or surgical castration? If so, what was the length before and after? And, how much time elapsed between measures? Information showing no change is just as valuable as that with change. Also needed is what sort of hormone replacement therapy (if any) you have used.

Please either post your answers below or send me a Private Message. I will tally the results and let you all know.

from wondering around looking at pics on the net,

I would have to guess yes on scrotum shrinkage, also penile shrinkage that can go right down to a nub,

I guess I'd be an exception. I've gained 1" in length since castration 8 years ago - from 5.5" to 6.5".

I'll add that I'd been diagnosed with hypogonadism and had begun testosterone replacement therapy ~6 mos prior to neutering. When I noted the growth some time later, I asked my doc, and he confirmed that one of the side effects of HRT was penile growth.

My sac has shrunk, but I can still fill it with 1 litre of salt water solution if I want.

After my stroke in 1991 my urologist stated my blood flow to my penis decreased by more than one-half. My super-small two inch penis size decreased significantly to fraction of a inch. Quite often my penis actually retracts inside my abdomon(God I just love it when it does that! I feel so feminine!). My testicles and sac also has shown a marked reduction in size. Since I am transgendered this has proven to be a god-send to say the least, since I look pretty good now in a skirt, dress. speedo, or swim suit. Full erections are now impossible, much to my delight! I have always enjoyed masturbation very much--masturbation is now a highly limpy, semi-flaccid affair at best, but not impossible. That's why an orchidotomy is so appealing to me. Well, it's been 17 years since my last rock-hard erection. Do I miss all those "wrong-time impromptu" erections? ABSOLUTELY NOT!

I have use natural anti androgen call Saw Palmetto, which act as fenateride, for 8 years. I was infact impotent during that periods but could have very few erections and I could only cum maybe twice a year with great difficulties, I don't know what my T level was at that time, my T level has been check only 1 mounth after I stop using this product and it was at 3.5 or 100. Before my penis was 5 1/2" and now it is 4 1/4" hard, it's about 25% smaller so are my testicules. Now I'm on TRT because my testicules won't produce enaugh testosterone.
