Well I found a way to order the androcur and it should be here in 7-14 days. I was just thinking on how much should I start out with?? I was thinking on starting out on 150mg a day ,Im 35 years old 195 pounds and 6'Tall. The reason I want to do this is to see what it would be like to be castrated to make sure Im doing the right thing. My probblrm is a overactive sex drive and want it gone and I am married.

Sounds like a good plan to me. You could do 50mg after every meal for three weeks, then 50mg after two meals for two weeks then 50mg after breakfast from then on. I did 50 every day so it took longer to be fully effective and now it is plenty for maintenance.

I would think that an overactive sex-drive would be a positive thing in a marriage; most marriages suffer from the opposite problem. But, whatever floats your boat.
Are you just planning to go the androcur route? I think that if I were to try it out, I'd want to try estrogen too, try the whole feminization route. In for a penny, in for a pound, you know?

DaveB, I hope you have good luck with androcur. I have used it several times when my libido was making me miserable and it did a good job in my case.
If I can respond to MarkDF, an overactive libido in one partner in a relationship is almost always problematic. To say that it is a positive thing denies the reality of most situations. If a husband, wife, partner, etc, demands sex daily from their husband, wife, partner who only wants sex once a week at most, then there will be an extreme tension in the relationship. If androcur helps the two match their level of sexual interest, it can only help.
While I'm on my soapbox,

I am often discouraged when talking about hypersexuality with folks. All too often the response I get is "how can you be TOO horny???" or "Most guys WANT to be horny all the time" or my favorite, "Don't you LIKE sex?" These people just don't get it. Hypersexuality is like the 500 pound person at Olde Country Buffet; a good thing has been taken so far that it is ruining the person' life. Sex is fine, but when hormones start controlling a person, it's time to respond in a way that puts life back in balance.

TBfromPGH, I agree with you in a lot of ways. Hypersexuality isn't something that is well understood by the masses. And it is even worse when you consider the cultural attitudes that we have here in the US (and I'm sure else where). The driver for bigger, better, more, and everything supersized leaves nothing unturned.
I feel for those that CONSTANTLY have a high sex drive that they feel is far above normal, interferring in their life, and excessively controlling their life. Ones sex drive is intimately intertwined with how we perceive ourselves and our relationship with others.
It is amazing at just how plastic our perception of reality can be under a shifting sea of hormones and moods. I'm sure that those that experience chemical castration are often surprised at just how much difference testosterone makes on their perception of life and reality.
I have noticed that peaks in my sex drive--the times where I can go for DAYS without any kind of sexual tension release despite how ever many times that I decide to climax, my focus and drive in life are so very different. I cannot imagine anyone that could possibly live consistantly with a drive that high.
I think that a lot of ideas like "Who wouldn't want more sex?" or "Wouldn't you want to be more horny?" come from a desire to have absolute control of our sexual desire and sex life. It might be nice to control it like we do a light switch, which is at our conveience.
I admit that hypersexuality can be fun for about a week, but after that it is the absolute last thing that I want. Thoughts of "Please, dear God make this stop!" come to mind often. And sometimes in some weird masochist way I still enjoy it to some degree.
