Many of us, myself included say we want an Orchiectomy but do we really know why? I mean what is the benefit say in my personal example:
From the 2 years on large doses of Spiro, my testes have shrunk up so much that they are almost non-existed and have totally retracted up inside if me.
So what would an Orchiectomy do for me that is not already done with Spiro?
My testes don't hang down, they are not visible whatsoever,they don't effect me wearing a swimsuit, and I certainly can't sit on them or be hurt from them by accident and they are not in the way -- their hidden up inside me.
To me it NOW comes down to having an Orchiectomy with the risks that might occur and long recovery or taking Spiro (which to me seems a lot safer and does wonders for my blood pressure).
Am I missing any other benefits?
