Man Removes His Own Testicles to Decrease His Sex Drive
 

RENO, Nev. - A fifty year old man wishing to decrease his libido successfully castrated himself at home using instructions that he found on the Internet.

The man called 9-1-1 at around 01:30 Monday morning to report that he could not stop the bleeding caused by his at-home operating skills.

Washoe Medical Center could not release any information on the man or his condition other than to state that he had successfully removed his testicles.

  Were in the hell?  
 Where did he ever manage to find information on how to do this? is there like a site dedicated for the purpose? If anyone finds the link, let me know. Im just really curious about how someone could even post info on how to do this.

  hope this helps  
  1. Begin by washing your hands and instruments (knife or scalpel) thoroughly with soap and water and then disinfectant. Next, wash the scrotum and disinfect.

2. Push the testes up out of the way and cut off the lower 1/3 of the scrotum with a cut parallel to the ground. The testes should now be visible.

3. Using your fingers, grasp one of the testis and pull downward. The testes are slick and difficult to hold onto, so grasp firmly. Do not to allow the testis or spermatic cord go back up into the scrotum once you have touched it as this will increase chances of infection.
In young kids (less than 4 or 5 weeks) pull down firmly, but steadily until the cord breaks.
In older kids or adults, instead of pulling the cord, use the knife or scalpel to sever the cord. Do not cut the cord cleanly, instead scrape it until it abrades through. Because the spermatic cord contains many blood vessels, a clean cut could cause excessive blood loss.

4. If a segment of the spermatic cord is protruding below the cut scrotum, it must be removed. If left exposed, it will act as a wick to pull bacteria into the body cavity and cause infection. Pull it free or abrade it with the knife.

5. Apply antiseptic to the castration site and administer an injection of tetanus antitoxin.

Note: Kids with a scrotal hernia should not be castrated by the cutting method. Care should be taken not to excite kids before or immediately after castration.

 Why would you do that to us??? I'm not going to be able to let go of 'them' for a week now. ouch ouch ouch 
 by: ntd   01/21/2005 09:40 PM     
  @targa...  
 I thought the best bit was 'Care should be taken not to excite kids before or immediately after castration.'

Never mind kids. I think anyone would be excited enough while that was going on never mind after.

Made me cringe.... Which site was it on. I'll put it in my excluded site list...... And I'm only half joking....

 instructions for goats, i take it? maybe sheep?

one of my vet (the animal kind) friends told us about that. how with cats and puppies you just yank the little testicles off sharply, because it causes the cords to rebound coiling up into the body and there's not much bleeding. but with large dogs you have to actually snip-and-tie.

 Rest assured that I will never post them. Don't have them. Even I found that disturbing.

  surprised  
 You would be surprised how easy it is to find information on this.

Here is one site that has a adult content warning.
http://www.eunuch.org/ You have to join (which I did't do) to gain access to the site.

Seems this has quite a following.
