Hey, grayl! it will be a blood clot, i mean and will need some time to reduce itself.
if ihad my infected left sacsite, it takes some weeks for the reducing of the swelling even the doc had cut it open with an enormous great and deep cut...

Graylayer,
After the surgery I had a relatively large lump in the left side as well. It was at first soft and flexible, and then over time got hard. It started to diminish very quickly after that. It was totally gone by 8 weeks after the surgery.
The pain you described I had as well. It came and went for a month or so, long after i would have thought the wounds were mostly healed. It was never really bad for me, just a slight discomfort. About the time I was thinking of calling the doctor, it stopped totally. No pain of any kind since then.
These days its just the joy that comes from reaching down and finding that smooth spot. Give it time , you'll get there.

OK, even the urologist is stumped by my phantom nut, says he's never seen anything like that before. We did another ultrasound today and there is a solid bit there; the thing has gotten somewhat harder and smaller over the past couple of days after increasing in size the previous couple of days. It isn't painful at all but it sure tries to act like it's a nut.
There's definitely no smoothness to appreciate.
Once this configuration settles down and I get some difficult wisdom teeth extracted, then I'll go ahead and make the arrangements for the nullo.
I'm at just under 6 weeks here. The phantom nut has begun to go away nicely and there's a lot less in the way of weird lumpiness in and under the scars. I'm at the point where I could say I clearly feel better than I did before the surgery in every respect, and at some points (usually involving physical activity) much better. Every time I sit down on my bike and don't squish the boys, I smile. Every time I do a squat and don't squish them, I smile. The straight boys in colorful spandex at the gym yesterday were looking at me like I was the freak.
It still looks a bit like Dr. Frankenstein designed my crotch, but things are settling down. The gigantic sack isn't beginning to shrink at all, but stuff feels much better.
I'll have more thoughts about hormones at a future time. It's odd; my favorite times are at the end of a hormone cycle where I'm mellow and happy but still have energy. Basically I like low T except for the energy and strength issues. Also, my energy and mental stamina are better than they were before castration; there's something about my body's natural T and the balls themselves that just didn't agree with me.
Until later.
OK, short update since it's been a week. Now at week T+7.
The nutlike object still is shrinking slowly, and the scars themselves are a lot less swollen. They're still really ugly though, especially where the sutures went through. The whole setup isn't very nice to look at but it feels nice riding a bike or doing what I did today since it wasn't raining, which is to chase trees in the park. One got away though.![]()
First off, I know what you mean, I hate when them damn trees get away.
I know some people say its an old wives tale and so forth and so on, but I have had a fair amount of surgery through out my life and vitamin e works amazingly well to have scars heal a lot better if you start off early. If you can start putting V E cream on the wounds now you will notice a big difference in the long run.
just my .02, and good luck with those trees.![]()
OK, I haven't updated in a while. Nothing exciting really. The scars still aren't pretty but they're gradually getting less lumpy, and I'm still working out the hormone situation with the doctor (going to switch to something more long-lasting after my next shot).
And that obnoxious lump is almost gone!There's still some itching though as things continue to heal and soften up.
Otherwise just grinding away with life and work, taking a trip down to south Germany and France to do some wine tasting this weekend, went to Poland to visit a friend last week. Life is busy in a good way. This is the year that I hope to sort out a lot of who/where/what types of things, with some action spilling over into next year.

Today is the first anniversary of my castration (well the beginning of it anyway).
The scars are settling down nicely from my operation in February, and I'm moving ahead with my further plans. The pace of my life has picked up a bit which is why I'm not hanging out here so much.
Well, I'm in Thailand now in a hospital bed recovering from what I hope is my last operation in this series.
I'm now a nullo with a clit and some glans tissue, buried beneath what I hope are small labia.
More on this later, special thanks to thraddash for helping me sort some logistical stuff out. He's also a great guy who has good taste in makeup.Our time here has overlapped somewhat.

Maybe I will know
What's there in my soul
And my road will flow
To place I've always had to go...
Congrats! I'm jealous.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug.
Well, I'm out of the hospital and at a hotel chilling with my bf. The pee-tube and most of the stitches, in theory, come out on Monday. So no sunbathing in a speedo this weekend.
It feels weird. It's like it's all still there, tied up inside my scrotum (which no longer exists in any form). The swelling is somewhat high but no signs of infection.
It's been great having others to be here beside me...special thanks to thraddash (who came before me and is a great guy) and to nonuts (my one of a kind boyfriend in whose arms I can finally fall asleep tonight...no more broken English from Thai nurses!).
Off to dinner by the beach.![]()
Congratulations on reaching your goal. So few ever manage to do so. I hope that the healing goes well and that you and your BF find happiness.
Nature loves variety. Unfortunately, society hates it.
