I'm thinking of treating myself to an orchiectomy for my 28th birthday.
Hi everyone, my birthday is July 7th and I'm thinking of giving myself the gift of an orchiectomy.
I found a professional doctor and told him personally about my dysphoria and how much I hate my testicles.
He told me he couldn't perform the orchiectomy because, according to the rules and laws of my country, they can't remove healthy organs.
I got even sadder, and it seemed like the doctor was sympathetic.
So he offered to perform the orchiectomy clandestinely.
He told me to find a hotel and that he would bring all his equipment to perform the surgery in the hotel room.
I was really excited that Saturday because I never thought this would happen so soon.
I'm 27 years old, and I've wanted to have my testicles removed since I was 16. My question is: once I have my testicles removed and the wound healed, will it hurt the next day? Is the pain too severe? Can I return to work 24 hours after the surgery? What do you think about my plan to have the surgery done clandestinely? I live in a country where this is still taboo and frowned upon. I need real and honest advice. Thank you for reading.
