Hi all,

I am back from a Football trip with my team. It included a two week training camp which is entirely pointless from a professional point of view. Let me tell you, Professional sports is business. Two weeks spent analysing a season by watching tapes of every game.

My question is simple. How beneficial is Eunuch calm and what are its attributes? Is it like before puberty. Worrying less? That is one of the main reasons I am considering removal of my damaged and useless testes. It has got me in such trouble and it's affecting my career.

Please be gentle. I have had a rough month.

"Eunuch Calm" is kind of a legend in my opinion.

(My motivation to become a Nullo had nothing to do with the desire to achieve "Eunuch Calm" .

You only lose the ability to create your own children, and otherwise you are an ordinary person.

Since you are a professional trainer and athlete, you will have to maintain the appropriate hormonal levels in your body, that is, take testosterone and so on.

It seems to me that natural testosterone for a healthy body is better than synthetic.

In my opinion, the so-called "eunuch calm" is a myth. For most around here, the desire for and pursuit of castration is often a harsh and urgent effort, the results of which, after achieving castration, tremendous relief can be had. That is often mistaken for the so-called "eunuch calm," when in fact it is relief.

Went a year and a half with no testosterone. Never really felt like I achieved any sort of eunuch calm. Still got erections daily and looked at porn as often as I did prior to castration. Real difference was 0 ejaculate.

Well, it seems like many do not experience "eunuch calm". But then again, can any of you define "eunuch calm"?

I for example did experience "eunuch calm" during my first chemcastration. It seems like it is a mental state soon after your T has dropped to very low. Later it seem to disappear or may be you just get used to it.

As you notice changes in your mind, later all the changes become new normal.

What did I experience? My sexual thought generator stopped to generate impulses in my thinking space (brain) that usually led to sexual thoughts popping up in my mind, out of blue. Even if these impulses did not end up with sexual thoughts, they created some background noise or restlessness. And suddenly that noise and restlessness was gone. I clearly noticed that. My mind felt quiet and peaceful. It seemed like there was suddenly much more space for thoughts. And that was enjoyable.

Later chemcastrations hadn't led me to similar experiences for some reason. But if I think about the changes in my mind what low T creates, then I certainly think much less about sexual stuff, do not react to sexual clues, I see bodies that excited my sexually as esthetically beautiful, without bothering my mind too much, which is also pleasant.

I think low T (which leads to low estrodiol) increases anxiety. What is your true goal? It sounds like you are worried about your libido getting you into trouble. As a pro athlete, you need T but there are other ways to dampen your sex drive.

I'm reminded of the folk tale from India about the six blind men who came upon an elephant, and each man described the elephant as like a rope, a tree, a wall, a leaf, a sword, or a snake, depending of what part of the elephant he touched. You doubters are like a seventh blind man who missed the elephant entirely and swore elephants were a myth.

I was chemically castrated for five plus years, and I can definitely say that I experienced a feeling I would call "eunuch calm". What I felt was the loss of feeling agitated, irritated, frustrated, and angry that testosterone had given me.

Others have observed it. In 1934, McCullagh and Renshaw reported in the JAMA that, after castration, their patients tended to display the "quiet phlegmatic temperament"(i.e., calm) referred to by Barker ("Endocrinology & Metabolism", 1929).

So maybe the "eunuch calm" does not really exist; maybe it is just a non-entity, the absence of something that does exist, that being the effects of testosterone. But there is definitely a change in the temperament of a man after he is castrated.

I found being castrated a welcome relief.
