Hey all, still doing research about having an orchiectomy, the material I keep finding, which is so minimal and pretty much limited to folks with experiences of "i'm having an orch and plan for vaginoplasty in the future" doesn't represent my personal experience with my body and needs around transition. I guess I'm curious if there are folks here ( Read more... )

hey all, i've been poking around the internet for resources in the bay area (i'm in sf) about local-ish doctors who do orchiectomies with really no luck. Seems like everyone's down for Kimmel, but frankly, it would be much easier to get to come home to recover vs. being across the country. Thoughts? Experiences? Thanks!

My intentions are to under go a full post op to include a vaginoplasty. Because of that I wasn't intending to get an Orchiectomy. I've learned as many pry have that with an Orchiectomy it's easier on your liver without the need for spiro, easier for estrogen to work, and costs a whole lot cheaper in the mean time ( Read more... )

I'm a year post-op, and although everything is sensate and works downstairs, I basically have no significant libido. This doesn't bother me overly - it's actually quite peaceful, but I think my ( Read more... )

OK this isn't a poll but I wanted to ask about people who have had orchiectomies. Where did you have your surgeries. I've seen some post on here and on the MTF community about a specific doctor that some people would not go to. At any rate kinda same rules as the polls, please comment if you have had a surgery, not trying to limit this. I guess you ( Read more... )

I have seen postings on here from others stating that they would not go to Dr Kimmel for their Orchiectomy. I am strongly considering it. For those of you who have read or know of any negative experiences with Doctor Kimmel, would you please share with me? (links, first hand, etc) I have only heard positive experiences and would like to know ( Read more... )
