4 weeks ago I had my first shot of 150mg of Depo provera. Yesterday I had my second. About 3-4 days into the first shot I started having notable less of a sex drive. I went down to jacking off once every other day having to work at it to do so, where I used to have to jack off 2-3 times a day to deal with the constant boner. A few days after that i could easily jack off each day again, tho did not need to jack off but once every two days or so. I have been able to do more things with out forcing myself away form my computer and porn this last month. Being free to do things with out having to jack off all the time Is why I'm doing this and why my real interest in castration began. One of my boyfriends biggest fears has been me not being able to satisfy him for when he dose want sex if I were castrated. But this last month I've still had far more of a drive then him. The only down side which might be attributed to the DP is that I've been more temperamental the last month then normally. Easier to piss off or cry. But I'm also working on moving this month and last so the extra stress might be the cause of that. I don't know, i hope its not the DP because I've relay enjoyed cutting the tie to jacking off several hours a day.

I guess I wanted to relay my experience so far to others who have gone though similer experences. I also wanted to ask your thoughts as to my easier to set off mood trigger And dosage thoughts. I know many use two or more shots in the first month to really knock down if not out their sex drive and one shot a month there after. I only had the one shot (did not want to much in me if there was any adverse reaction) my first month and it only took off maby 30% of my drive. If i continue takeing just one shot a month will it graduley increse to takeing out more of my drive or stay at about a 1/3 reduction?

Thank you for your time.

JD- Thanks for posting this. Just this last month I started on DP as well and for some similar reasons that you mention. It seems that I am getting some of my life back and able to stop feeding a semi addiction to porn.

Like you, I started with just one 150mg shot as my system already has lowered testosterone from my regime of Spiro. One reason I sought to change from the Spiro is that it is so ****ing hot here and sweating buckets of sweat hourly and the potential for low sodium is a concern. Many of the electrolyte drinks have both sodium and potassium and the potassium buildup was a worry and concern.

How is your DP regime working for you now?

The key thing with any chemical castration is to be patient. Decreases in your testosterone take time and then it takes more time for your body to adjust to that and you to notice it. Go at least 6 months if you're doing only one shot of DP/month. Even better if you can get a testosterone test to see where you really are, not just your subjective perception of it. The question alway is.. How low is low? Without a test, you really don't know

Well ive only noticed a 30% drop so far. I can tell the seckond shot seems to be starting up now it may well be a 40% drop before the next shot. My boyfriend has noticed a big change in how much i bug him which I find quite suprising considering we have not done things any more or less then before.
