Partial Castration thru CaCl Injections?

[Acceleracer Tatoh (imported)]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if it was possible (or if anyone here believed it was possible) to undergo a partial castration thru CaCl injections. I posed this question already on the "Calcium Chloride and Other Salt Injections for Castration". I apologize for my apparent impatience, but I have a limited temporal window in which to decide upon and then perhaps to undergo these injections.

My goal is to reduce T levels so that my libido, hair loss, and acne diminish, but continue to naturally produce enough so that I can avoid some of the negative health benefits commonly associated with a full castration, like osteoporosis, gynecomastia, and mental fog. I'd much rather prefer to continue to produce some T rather than being fully castrated and have to undergo to HRT, but will I accept full castration if it means otherwise being forced to continue to accept the status quo.

I've read thru about the first 50 pages of the aforementioned thread and the only mention of partial castration seems to be made very early on by SplitDik. SplitDik cited a study that seemed to indicate that partial castration was possible with CaCl injections. In this study, cats' testis that were injected with different concentrations of CaCl demonstrated progressively lower T levels when checked at 30, 45, and 60 day intervals. Unfortunately, because observations stopped at 2 months, it's unclear as to whether T levels would have eventually leveled out or if they would have continued to be reduced down to castration levels.

Perhaps injecting a small concentration of CaCl at a low dosage (such as 5% at 0.25mL) would achieve partial castration without any additional intervention? Or, if the production of free radicals caused by the CaCl continues, and therefore the destruction of testicle tissue continues (albeit at a slower rate than would occur if a 20% concentration had been injected as indicated by the study), perhaps an additional compound would have to be injected to counteract the further effects of the CaCl?

If we can figure this out, this would be a huge step for those such as myself who wish to permanently reduce their T levels without needing to compensate for levels that are too low thru HRT. The solution to the problem I've posed would have monumental implications! Your input is much appreciated! Thank you!

It only took me one injection of calcium chloride to damage my nuts enough to require surgical removal. The right died right away and after 1 year the left slowly died off to require upcoming removal.

I would only advise and recommend use of calcium chloride for its effect of total destruction death of the nuts.

I'll agree with previous post - partial is unlikely. And in any case, you do not know how much testosterone you need to avoid mental fog. (And you can not precisely regulate the damage).

Also - testicles are in feedback loop, so for example, removing one would only cause second one to pick up the load (and T levels would stay more or less the same).

As CaCl2/Alcohol mixture works by damaging testicles and preventing recovery... I am not sure if this process can be limited to specific zone of testicle.

In short - there is alcohol injections thread, it was slower working.

But actually I'd say any injections have high risk of ending up fully permanent. Did you try chemical castration (androcur/depo provera/etc), it is reversible (if you do not stay too long on it), and probably more controllable.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Nutless2b, do you recall what concentration of CaCl/alcohol and what volume you injected?

[nutless1 (imported)]

I used 32% calcium chloride pre-mixed.

I used 150 proof Everclear grain alcohol.

It only took 2cc of calcium chloride to totally destroy my right nut. It caused a mass to be present.

I've thought about destroying one nut. It's true that the remaining one my compensate in keeping T stable but I wonder if this feedback control declines with age. At some point not having two might result in a significant drop in T. Does anyone have any experience or other information on this possibility? For myself having only one nut would be better than two.

I have a friend who lost one testicle in his 20s and now early 60s and still normal T so you might be waiting a long time for T reduction.

One time injection of Calcium Chloride and Alcohol destroyed my right testicle resulting in removal and a second small injection finished the left one so don’t count on partial destruction. Only use if you are ok with castration!

I won't wait a long time. I like being on low T.
