I am curious..... When banding, how would one know they went to far and the damage was irreversable and how would you tell if you have a blood clot...? I kinow a lot of individuals band a lot and so I thought someone could offer some detail on complications and how to recognize them and what to do inorder to avoid them..... Yes I know... don't do it at all but, I am sure there are a lot of individuals out there that would like this information as well

Respect to all

When i banded, I did so for 4 hours, my penis/balls turned dark grey and got cold. It hurt like no pain i have ever felt, and I was drunk on whiskey. *gag* That pain STILL sends shivvers down my spine! I cut the band with a pocket knife, and it had had cut into the skin and caused bleeding, but not died. it became bruised as all hell, but healed. It was back to normal in a week or two.

Thats the furthest I went with it... I cant say what would occur past that... it hurt too much to go any further.

Well Transgirl i will not lecture you on doing things like that while drunk because i have been their myself and thats not a smart thing to do.But when testosterone runs our life like it did mine we do things we just look back at and wonder how we survived this long.We had one person in here a few years back who did this and after all the bills were payed he was out over 12000.00 dollars so do be careful my friends as we will not always be as luckey.

The cells involved in the creation of sperm are much more sensitive to oxygen deprivation or other injury than those that create the testosterone, and they do not always regenerate. In other words, it's a lot easier to render yourself infertile, permanently or otherwise, than it is to cause impotence or the other effects of androgen deficiency. This fact is of little importance to those who intend to castrate themselves, but is worth mentioning to those who are just playing with ball bondage. Cold is Bad and probably best avoided in sex play. If you care about fatherhood later, at least.

I have on numerous occasions, tied my testicles so tight as to result in the typical dark purple and the cold and have kept this up for an extended period of time..... The pain was more of discomfort rather than the intense pain some have described. What convinced me to terminate the banding was the pinching. Someone actually advised me that banding to the extent of profound color change and the coldness could result in bad blood and the possibility of clots. My knowledge of clotting is that after surgery clotting is more from laying immobile for extended periods of time. That is why after major surgery, you are put in stockings to keep the lower extremities warm and help eliminate clotting problems. I know that when the testicles turn cold that is an indication that the blood supply has indeed been cut off. The human body is so resilient and capable of repairing itself and in this case it is a travestry as it would be so much easier in the perfect world for the testicles to reach a point where they die and just wither away.... without having to seek medical help.

Transgirl - I am curious if you got drunk to help with the pain or did you just happen to be drunk and decided to try it.....? I am a TG girl also and I know that sometimes we take extreme measures to get the result we are after sense the medical profession makes it so hard and in some cases impossible, to achieve the results we so desperately pursue.

I hope others post their comments, experiences and definitive knowledge to this thread....
