Well, I am scheduled for a bilateral orchiectomy on April 4. Will be done in Urological Surgical Center with local.

Wayne,

Out of curiosity, can you tell us how much it will cost? I had hoped to find someone local to do my castration (to save time and expense), but had to go to Philly.

can you tell us where and if this is elective how you found a doctor to do it.

Before surgery I went on Andrucor available from masters marketing in the UK.

Andrucor reduced my testostrone to levels of a eunuch. Chemical castration with Andrucor is reverseable not surgery. If you have a regular doctor recommend surgery after chemical use of andrucor for at least a year a urologist may do the Orchiectomy. Im my case my doctor wanted to get me off andrucor after a year and recommended the orchiectomy after a discusssion with him about my reasons for the surgery.

I definately would recommend some kind of chemical castration before surgery for a year so a mistake isn't made and regretted.

Best of luck but don't make a quick decission about surgery until you are SHURE !!

Wayne, best of luck for the operation and the new "you."

Don

Is Andrucor legal and approved by the FDA in the USA?

No it is not.

Hi All! Well, it's back. Looks like my PSA is up to 4.3 . Castration is the ultimate answer. I'll go in and reiterate the idea that those things I still have need to be removed. I was recently talking to and "OLD" friend that has had Prostate cancer, went through the whole reutine. Now it's back, bone cancer. They now have decided on castration. A little late, I'd say. When will they learn?

I'll report on my dealings with this later. All the Best, Leona
