A few days ago a friend got alcohol injections into his testicles as a means of castration. He set off a firestorm by saying so on another thread and quit listening because he's all sweetness and it started turning ugly. Except that some of the posts raised my alarm, I'm clueless. So I put the question to you guys with knowledge and experience. What do I need to know to tell him how to take care of himself?

This is so important. Please respond.

Thank you.

Hey, Krister.

Thanks for putting things in perspective.

Cool, yes, gravity. I got that something went wrong for another member and people were upset. I just can't have the guy who got the alcohol injections quit listening. It had been planned for awhile so I guess someone told him it was a good thing. Any ideas what he should do besides look for alternative means of castration? I mean, what to keep a lookout for, etc. I don't know enough about injecting to even ask the right questions.

There is another fellow on here who did injections and he told me not to do it. It did kill his balls but like the good sister states, he had serious health problems. He eventually had a doctor remove them...

DrewFor anyone contemplating the use of Alcohol or Peroxide injections to their testicles be forewarned, these fluids contain microscopic wood fibers which cause tumor growth within these organs.

Microscopic wood fiber is a byproduct of the manufacturing process of Alcohol and Peroxide and performs the function of filler within the aqueous solution. These fibers form tumors over a period of time. Castration will not happen suddenly but death from the tumor is possible over time without proper medical care.

Take heed... other issues abound from the use of these products.

Ummm...Krister et. al., I say (type?) this politely, but you guys are very wrong on th effectiveness of alcohol injections.

My testicles were destroyed via alchohol injections. The person who did it knew what they were doing and had castrated himself and several others using his method. I did develop some minor issues later, but that was the point. The goal was to destroy them such that I could convince a doctor to remove them, which, once I found a doc who wasn't a moron with penis size issues, was pretty easy.

I had no problem with tumors (and they checked a bunch to make sure I didn't have cancer at first), and have been completely unable to find any reliable medical source that claims you would get tumors from injections of medical grade alcohol.

While I did have some function left afterwards (and likely wouldn't if I'd had a second injection a day or two later, as was planned, but you know what they say about best-laid plans), the injections were most effective at functionally castrating me.

That's not to say everybody should run right out and buy some syringes and pure grain - you need to know what you're doing, but this hysteria is silly and factually incorrect. Alcohol injections work quite well if properly administered.

Yes what you are saying probley dose work but cutting them off with a dull knife works to but the likley hood that you will have major problens is almost a given.Castration can be done in many many diffrent ways and it is in your best intrest to do this in the safest way you can.The fact that we have been their and seen what can go wrong is a testement of what we are saying should be taken serious.Remember we are looking out for you now its up to you to look out for yourself

Zoroaster has it, of course, absolutely right. It can be done, but there are great risks, as others have pointed out. I think that most members of the Archive – and ALL members of the Archive staff – would argue that the risks are too great for the potential rewards.

Even methods that work perfectly well on livestock are probably best not used on humans. I’m a farm boy. I’ve done it. BUT, I also know that losing an animal now and then is just figured into the increased value of the castrated livestock. Pain and suffering were little considered until recently, either.

Unless you are seriously suicidal and/or into great pain and tolerance for uninsured medical expenses (should things go wrong), you are best off saving your money and having it done right.

Zoroaster,

You are one of the finest specimens of successful castration due to Alcohol injections. Your contibutions to the E.A. are highly regarded and I'm sure you can name 100, 50, or 10 others who did the same. So I won't ask.

The Admin staff here at the Archive tend to lean toward safety rather than experimentation thus the caution on Alcohol injections.

If documentation or proof that Alcohol injections will cause issues, here I am, living proof Alcohol injections cause harm. My cancer scare was caused by Alcohol injections. Those microscopic wood fibers I mentioned in a previous post in this tread were detected by the foremost testicle authorities, the U.S. Army. My left testicle was removed, cut up then shipped to the Army medical lab.

The most uncomfortable discussion with my doctor took place 2 weeks after my orchiectomy. My doctor told me what was found by the lab, then proceeded to ask if I were an intravenous drug abuser. Boy was I disjointed with that question. As a holder of U.S. government "Sensitive Data" security clearance, granted only after completing 10 pages and 10 years worth of background information and a drug test, I couldn't believe what this guy was asking.

You never know about those quiet ones, as my mother would say. I was the quiet one and the doctor just shook his head when I told him about my government security clearance. I never told him about my private play time.

So for you folks interested in Alcohol injections, take heed. There are much safer ways to achieve the final cut.

Thanks for the quality responses. You're all amazing. I'm paying attention and learning.

I guess the safest advice then is to save up and spring for the right MD?

DrewR,

The best answer is to do exactly as you are doing. Do all of your homework. Get the best advice you can find. Read up on all of the consequences of such an irreversible act - both physical health and mental health. There are both positive and negative consequences and you need to be certain that, for you, the positive outweighs the negative.

For some who have come here, castration has been a powerfully postive force in their lives. For others, it has been an unmitigated disaster. Careful research and thought will help you to make the best decision.

You also need to consider the safest alternative. A licensed surgeon is certainly the best alternative, and the only one that we would reccommend here. With the possibility of complications, odds are that it's the cheapest alternative as well.

Think everything through carefully, and remember that you have a strong support group here.
