My question is the main reason why you chose chemical castration, how it will improve your life, when did you begin thinking of doing this? and any other reasons such as hairloss? or unable to get girlfriend ?

The reason for chemical castration is simple, it allows you to take castration on a test drive to see if its right for you. You should plan on taking a year, if you like the effects then maybe castration is for you.

Its just that simple.

Will it improve your life, that is why you are taking castration on a test drive, as for hair, most likely not if you are bald or balding that will not change and if your reason for wanting castration is to keep the hair on your head, you are looking at the wrong reasons for being castrated in the first place.

By asking these questions, it is clear that this is not for you. Good-bye.

With everything there is a first step.

read around the board in some of the threads.

You will find that some men complain about Testosterone running and ruining their lives.

and another reason,

It's good advice to do the reversible chemical test before seeking the irreversible surgical step.

I am 22yrs old and I am taking cyperterone daily and also using dutasteride. Since taking these meds 6months on cyperterone and over year on dutasteride, I no longer watch pornography, never masturbate and have quit paying prostitutes. It has improved me mentally and financially. I do not experience any sexual thoughts, dreams or desires and the urge is gone. My aim is to not be attracted to females at all as i still find women attractive. I choose castration because it is next to impossible to get a partner because girls have too many options and can choose who they want. I probably never even had a girl as a friend or talked to a girl much. at best I may have chatted to girl for few minutes. I asked why choose castration either chemical or surgical because I wanted to know if it was similar to my reasons. hope people here can relate?

It sounds like your experiment with chemical castration has been a positive one so far for you. And that is the main reason for experimenting with it to see how castration may fit into your personality and needs but be reversible should it not meet your expectations. It is a difficult step for most who have some fantasies about being castrated to take to have the actual surgery done because of fear of the unknown. A lengthy trial of chemical castration will either confirm or alleviate your fears and let you make a rational, informed decision.

I read your bio and read your posts and I see a very young guy that has given up on relationships, I wonder why? If one thing is not working for you stop, try something different. Castration is a final solution, so what happens in 5 years and you meet this person that rocks your boat? You have given up before your life has started. I seriously question you on this, and only advise that you take your time, lots of time. As always I wish you the very best and hope that everything turns out for the best.

I'm one of the rarer cases here where sexual frustration was the problem. I'm 26 and have never had a girlfriend (or boyfriend), I haven't even ever kissed. At first I tried Cyproterone (Androcur/Siterone), I was taking doses as high as 200 mg/day and it did nothing on my libido. Now I've been on GnRH agonists (Triptorelin) since May. I'm not happy with those results either. I masturbate only a couple of times a month, but get erections easily when in the vicinity of an attractive girl (I met a girl in a pub on Friday, we played snookers together with her and her friend). I am still addicted to dating sites and of course get rejected all the time. I really would like to get rid of any interest in sex.

One of my past reasons for stopping HRT was that I did not feel I would be successful in the dating world (my original reason for castration was because I believed I wanted to be a woman, but I have been through many other reasons since then!). While I have had a girlfriend and had a woman express interest not too long ago, overall my situation is much like yours. Throughout most of my life, it seemed much more difficult to find someone who was interested than it was worth.

I will give you that it is probably slightly harder for a man to find a partner than it is for a woman. This is because with as progressive as society has become, men are still often expected to make the first move. A man who has a hard time doing this will suffer more than a woman in the same position. This was absolutely an issue in my case - I could never imagine telling a woman I had that sort of interest in her or doing something that would imply that. I don't know if this the reason you have been unable to find someone, but if it is, I wouldn't worry too much since there are women who do make first moves, and there is a good chance that one of them will come your way.

It seems that most people need a relationship to be happy. While I don't doubt that a relationship could improve my happiness, I have come to realize it is not something that I need. I could be happy being single for the rest of my life. For most people this is unimaginable, but for me, it is why I am OK with not taking HRT. If a relationship was something I had a strong desire for, I would be on HRT because without it, it seems even less likely that a woman would be interested.

My romantic side tends to believe in soul mates, and there is a definitely a part of me that still believes there is someone out there who understands me perfectly and who I could form a bond like no other with. If I ever meet this person, then yay for us. But if I don't, I have plenty of other goals that will give my life meaning and allow me to be happy.

I think that if I did want a relationship, that bond is what I would be most after. I am not particularly interested in sex, but sometimes I do desire the companionship and emotional bonding that comes with a relationship.

I'm not sure that being unable to find a girlfriend is something I would consider to be a valid reason for castration. This is because I don't think anyone is truly unable. As River said, it may not happen until some time in the future. I do think that for some people it will take longer than it will for others. But the best things in life are worth waiting for.

If you don't have any desire for a romantic relationship (and especially if you don't desire to have sexual attractions, but that is different from finding it challenging to fulfill them), that would be different and very well could be a valid reason for castration.

I think you need to ask yourself just why it really is that you want castration before you can know if you are on the right path. Whatever path you take, I wish you all the best!
