The decline in bilateral orchiectomies is a national trend. In 1986 there were 31,000 bilateral orchiectomies performed in the US, and by 1998 there were only 5,000, the report indicates.

Much of this is due to the decreased number of people undergoing castration for prostate cancer.

Since the number of customers has drastically dropped, but there is no shortage of people who desire to have this procedure done in order to become eunuchs, you would think that the doctors might advertise for this and/or give them special deals. What do you think?

Love,

Kelly
