Do you know any guys who regret or have regretted having been castrated?

If so, for what reason? What reaction then?

What way to manage their life?

What way to manage their life?

I don't know anyone who has been castrated and then regretted it.

Your question brings up two important points.

Sperm banking should be done. Even if a guy thinks there is no way he'd ever want to father children, he should still store sperm. One way a guy could regret his castration would be if he later wanted to father children. He might be very happy with all the other results of castration. He might like the way it looks. He might like the ability to lower or raise his testosterone levels. Still, if at some point he wanted to father children, only having banked sperm would make that possible. It is possible that he might want to use his sperm in ways he less than traditional. Medicine might find cures for conditions that use a man's own sperm. Another possibility might be if he later finds he has a lesbian sister who is married - she and her wife each decide to have one baby each using the sperm of their wife's brother - that way both children would have the DNA from both parents and in some ways be full siblings - but, if he didn't store sperm, that wouldn't be possible.

Testosterone replacement or estrogen is something to work out before the castration. It is possible to go to zero testosterone or estrogen but, the side effects are difficult. Making the correct choice regarding hormone replacement prior to castration would lead to a lesser possibility of regretting the castration later.

Thanks for the topic.

I never did, not one second, my I can only judge for myself.

I know one guy who did. I watched the full video of his castration, it went well during but he had some bleeding after. I think he did it mostly for a fetish reason and that may the worst reason to do it. I believe he also wanted to reduce some hornyness. I haven't talked to him in about a year because he wanted to "distance himself from the worst decision of his life". Just remember this is rare.

I've been nullified and I love the result but I will admit that accepting the fact that I'm a eunuch was the hardest part of me emotionally because I wasn't totally prepared for it. It's ok now and I have no regrets. Just make sure it's what you need and make all the plans. If it's right for you, you will know it and be ready to have it done.

I knew two men who got castrated to please a master, not for their own reasons. On both cases the master left them in less than a year. Both were miserable

Hello

You may have noticed that I created topics, not for the pleasure of writing, but it is a kind of investigation before my own castration.

As many say, you have to be sure of what you are looking for, and some even cite the wrong reasons that may have caused regret. And in this area, where it is impossible to go back, it is better to know why we want to be castrated, because in case of error, regret will be for life.

So I thank those who answer my question, whose goal is not to spare the truth, but on the contrary to help me to be sure that I will not regret anything. You can never be sure until you try, but you can open your eyes to things you haven't thought about.

To this day I have always decided, I will soon have an appointment with the sex therapist who follows me, for informed consent, her goal not being to dissuade me from being castrated, but to make me think carefully about all the aspects to make the final decision knowing all the points that I have to face and answer 100% no, I would not regret.

The results of castration vary a lot, and are hard to predict. Our reaction to them may be quite variable, and not what we think beforehand. I don't think a person should have a surgical castration without an EXTENDED trial of chemical castration first.

If you're planning to replace your natural T with artificial T, the physical changes don't mean a whole lot. Pretty much just being permanently sterile. You can keep most other physical aspects the same.

If you plan to live with no T, and no other hormones, then you really need to try that chemically for at least six months. It takes that long to really begin to experience what no T feels like. It's not easy for most. Osteoporosis is a real risk, and the hot flashes are annoying. Worst by far is a relentless, grinding fatigue. I struggled with that for 3 years while I was on Lupron for medical reasons. It was really hard.

If you plan to replace T with a *proper* level of E, then try that too. I find it to be quite wonderful, but it has its own spectrum of side effects. Notably, a risk of breast growth, and typically very low libido and limited sexual ability. On the other hand, my mood is terrific, my energy is really good, and he lack of libido is a feature for me. It's not for everyone.

You really, really, need to do an extended trial before taking an irreversible physical step. It's the only way you can be confident.

Thank you Varys for your feedback.

What you say seems very logical.

However, for me, I am considering using testosterone as a replacement for natural T.

Everything will be after to make the right dosage to obtain the desired effect, libido, impotence etc ...

Personally I think you are not wrong to suggest a preliminary test of the chemical castration type.

Concerning myself, I do not feel the courage in view of the side effects.

But that's still good advice.

I was on antiandrogens for 3 years until I had surgical castration. I was already happy with the chemical castration (Besides the strange side effects I had from it) so surgical castration caused no regrets fpr me. The side effects got less not taking the antiandrogens anymore.

The penectomy was a little different. During the first few months there were times when it was more like a "wtf I hope i will not regret this"-feeling, because it felt so different. But I am very happy with it now (especially after the cosmetic revision) so no regrets...

It is actually very good advice. In my opinion, anyone who does an elective orchiectomy without do a trial run chemically isn't thinking clearly. At a minimum one should be on anti-androgens for 6 months to a year.
