Brand new here (not even sure I will be able to make this POST?), and wanted to say 'Hi!'

Mid 50's gentleman who is at a point in life where voluntarily having my 'Male bits' removed completely, may become a reality. My Urologist suggested I do some homework and see what I could find online by way of places where people have had this done, and how they handled it.

For myself, I am a Widower and not sexually active. In fact, I really, really don't like it when my 'Bits' DO become frisky. MS has been destroying my voluntary muscles, and wrecking havoc on my CNS regarding my plumbing, so there is a medical issue and definitely one regarding hygiene that I would appreciate seeing improved (less hassle in dealing with, at the least).

Anyway, that pretty much 'Me' in a few sentences.

I look forward to reading more in the Forum, and seeing what folks have to say/share.

Thank You.

Hey @EeyoresTail,

First, welcome home. You are in the right place. This is both a diverse and tightknit group.

Next, I'd recommend reading as many of the "sticky" posts as you can. Those contain frequently asked questions and topics that new members seek answers to.

Also, start slow. Post questions and engage softly. As you might imagine, it is not uncommon for guys looking only for pictures or fantasy to come onto this forum. The groups can be fiercely protective of the very special relationships we have with each other. Yes, there is humor here as well.

There is nothing wrong with taking your imagination out for a spin and the fiction section is designed exactly for that. The same user ID and password will get you into the fiction section as onto the forum. The chat and personal sections use the same ID and have their own interaction dynamic that is lighter than the forum.

Keep us informed. My experience is that there are as many reasons for being on here as there are people here. Your journey is important to both you and to the groups. We need you here and once again, welcome.

Welcome @EeyoresTail,

As "Sir" TopManFL said, take things slow and easy at the start and read, read, read.

I had my orchie 16 months ago and never regretted it, but I tested the effects via chemically shutting the testosterone down for a year before I made that decision.

I am a little different from you in that I am M2F trans and am 66 years old.

The test was suggested by a dear man who made it clear that this is not a decision to take lightly and that the “test” would prove how I could handle it.

I am also on estradiol as it protects my bones and brain health. With that, I get to have breasts and a more womanly shape.

Simply cutting off the testicles is fine but make sure you research removal or relocating the penis/urethra.

Incontinence can be a problem as we age, and it is awfully convenient to full it out to pee almost anywhere it is unseen and convenient. That is why I don’t plan on SRS for me.

Anyway, good luck, read and ask singular questions as it works best in forums.

AJ
