There seems to be a trend towards younger men on here getting castrated. In cases where a man is less than 35 or so when snipped, then he will live most of his life as a eunuch... very different from men who have it done later after a longer experience with manhood, which might include marriage, children etc. For example I fight both the urge to get castrated and the urge to get married ( again) and lead a " normal " life. A man castrated in his twenties has only been a man a brief period and all the ups and downs of living in body you don't feel comfortable with is gone quickly and I suppose the that memory of manhood would start to fade... or does it? I wonder how the younger eunuchs on here see this question; whether they see their psychological profile as different from a man castrated at say 45- 50 years of age?

I had mine done in my late 40s but I had low T for a while so my comment is probably confusing. I don't feel any great difference. I should of course note that I'm on HRT, but other then maybe the "thought" that my balls are "store boughts" I feel the same. If not better since I had medical issues with my old set.
I think that younger people should really think twice before doing it for non medical reasons. I think they don't have the experience to be able understand the issues of sterility alone never mind the changes that life without Testosterone will almost certainly bring.
I can't say it enough. Its NOT just sex drive your fiddling with. Low testosterone has health issues (bone loss) and mental health issues (Depression) and quality of life issues (Energy, mental focus, etc)
There are lots of cool and exciting OTHER things to do sexualy if this is a Kink.

I was castrated a little over two years ago at age 35 and it's the best decision I ever made. Assuming I live to the normal life expectancy, I will live a majority of my life without testicles, and a majority by far of my adult life without. Other than having more trouble keeping weight off than I did before, I have only one regret - and that is that I didn't do it ten years earlier.
That said, I do encourage those young men that are considering this to wait until at least age 30 before getting it done. If it has been a lifelong desire, it is worth waiting that time to make sure that you are 100% certain, which is what I did. I know that my only regret is that I wasn't 25 when I did it, but I think it is better to regret not having done it than to regret having done it.
The nuts can always be cut off, but they can't be glued back on.

My interests in catration began at age 13. For years and years, I put the whole issue to the side because I thought it was an impossibility in this society. I did not become a Eunuch until I was 56 years old. I wished I had been done 25 years sooner at the minimum. It would have relieved a real lot of stresses in my life if I had been.

I am another eunuch cut at 41 that wishes it had been done earlier. I knew something was wrong with how I perceived and felt about myself. In the 10+ years of being a eunuch I have enjoyed my true self.
I do not think age is as important as making sure the right decision is being made. As far as being a man that was never comfortable for me. I am now 52 years old and I wish I was celebrating 34 years as a eunuch.

The problem with telling a young man he is going to have to wait until he is 35 or 40 to get castrated is that to him those ages are an eternity away. Even now at 23, the age of 35 seems an eternity away to me, and even more so when I was 20 (which is when I was castrated). Had someone told me then, "You need to wait until you are 35 to have this done," I would have said, "Are you kidding? How the hell am I supposed to do that?"
We need to be realistic. There is no way we can expect a man in his late teens or early twenties to just wait until he is 35 or 40 to have something done that he really wants and truly feels is right for him. For some it could mean suicide to have to wait that long. In any case, it is not realisitc to expect a young man who really needs to be castrated to just forget about it for all those years.
I support a minimum age of 25 because I think this is the longest we can realistically expect a young adult to wait, and even that is pushing it for some. Plus the age of 25 presumably guarantees at least a reasonable level of maturity for long-term decision making according to studies in cognitive development.

i agree a minimum age of 25 but I was saying an ideal age would be 30+ years

I think it all depends on the person and the surrounding circumstances. Looking back on my life, it would have made things a whole easier if I was done at age 25. So much bad happened in my early 30's that could have been prevented. Now so much damage has been done that no one will ever understand and know. It has to stay inside my brain.

I don't think you can come up with single age that would work for everyone. There are a lot of factors that come into making this life changing discission. Some young people mature at very young age and understand the gravity of the discission others remain children in adult bodies.
