Your sexual desire is only an inner component of your personality. Outwardly, you can be the same person without your sex organs or sexual desire.

Mac, you wrote it precisely and succinctly I couldn't agree with you more (with the small proviso) that your personality will be calmer, gentler, by defenition freer from aggressive thought and that "you"

understand the mysteries of gender and learn so much which is advantageous to personal growth, but above and beyond that you

remain the same person.

well i'm talking more looks then anything else, i want to look pretty much exactly the same, i can handle slight differences in looks. but i dont want to get fat, or grow a big ass or boobs

Lupin,

I desire to be nullo and also do not want to gain weight. However, I wouldn't complain about having a more feminine appearance or even noticable boobs. We all have different needs and desires. It would be nice if we could realize those needs and desires.

Lupin you sound like me about two years ago .I to was looking to lower sexual desire that is when i thought about chemical castration .And about forteen monthes ago i started depo provera and my life has never been better.And with chemical castration you have the option to stop if you dont like the efficts .With surgery it is final so it is good to try chemical castration first to see if you are happy with this that is how some here have done so good luck wy friend.

I also tried chemical castration and I do recomend it. Take it for at least a year and see if you like the effects of being a eunuch. If you do there is a doctor in Philly that does castrations.

As you are just starting on this path, feel free to ask questions as many as it takes, get all thie information you can.

Good luck

well, how about appearance, are you still a male by appearance?

Every Eunuch will have different effects from his castration. Some of this may depend on whether he is an “elective” Eunuch or not. YMWV = Your Mileage Will vary. Some side effects of castration are:

Infertility, in all cases.

Many (but not all) elective eunuchs develop “The Eunuch Calm”, with reduced or eliminated thoughts of sex, aggression, and ambition. In the words of Dr. Spector, “either case of TS or eunuch, a deep, calm serenity develops which, from then on, makes life far more worthwhile.” This has happened to me, but again, YMWV. This is less likely to happen to non-elective eunuchs.

Reduced libido, erections, and nocturnal emissions, sometimes to the point of total asexuality.

Weight gain, including subcutaneous body fat. This thin layer of fat causes the skin to become softer and smoother.

Loss or thinning of body hair, but male pattern baldness slows down or stops. Reduced body odor.

Loss of lean muscle mass (hence muscle weakness, increased fatigue, and loss of stamina). Your shoulders will become narrower and you will lose muscle definition in your upper torso without a VIGOROUS exercise program.

Little to mild breast development, and mild fat redistribution around the hips and thighs.

The penis may shrink.

Hot flushes and night sweats in some cases, lasting up to 5 years.

POSSIBLE moodiness and tearfulness. Do not be surprised if you start crying far more frequently over what may seem to be trivial matters.

There MIGHT be cognitive losses, mostly in spatial orientation and short term memory

Post-surgical depression is common. Possible chronic depression SHOULD be a major concern, and may require professional therapy. This is far more likely to happen to non-elective eunuchs.

The WORST side effect is osteoporosis. You should take at least 1,500 MG of calcium and 400 IU of Vitamin A daily. Shortly before or after castration, you should have a bone density scan, and after that a scan every two years. A proper diet and exercise program will help in the battle against osteoporosis.

Most Physicians have no experience in caring for a hypogonadal man. Consider finding a Physician who has a thorough working knowledge on the problems and treatments of menopausal and post-menopausal women. Whilst the biology of a Eunuch and a post-menopausal woman are not identical, there is some overlap.

Trust me, Lupin, Riverwind still looks like a male.

There's no danger of mistaking HIM for a lady.

(Even though he CAN cook!)
