Life after bilateral orchiectomy how do you cope
I had bilateral orchiectomy 7 years ago and had no counciling offered before or after surgery because it wasn't cancer related. I've had emotional problems dealing with this ever since. I don't fit into any support groups because of the surgeries were for medical reasons and not gender affirming or cancer related. I need help finding resources to deal with this. It would be nice to have someone who has experience this to talk to. The surgeries had many complications and healing took 9 months and had to use wound care clinic for 6 months. Everything that could go wrong did. Been dealing with this by myself with no support from anyone not even family.

I'm amazed you haven't been offered testosterone patches or injections. You could restore your male virility. Being a eunuch can have long term degeneration of your bones and can cause weight gain .
