Ok, so assuming you are a M 2 F pre-op Transsexual, & you want an
orchi. there are some considerations.

1. Is it an end point or do you intend to later have full
genital reassignment surgery / sex reassignment surgery
[GRS / SRS] in the future?
If you do, then a bi-lateral orchi looses you donor material for GRS.
For this reason, half the worlds GRS surgeons will not touch you if
you've had an orchi.
If it is a half way point, then the clock starts ticking as the donor
material starts to atrophy after 3 to 4 years, making GRS difficult,
or compromised (less vaginal depth) So, bringing in a ticking clock
into your decision process on GRS is not a good idea.

2. So you want an orchi, as an end point, & not as a stepping stone to
GRS. Ok....

Considerations
Why have an orchi?
a .Appearance...detesting testicles but ambivalent to your penis
b. To cut down on meds & resultant stress on liver
c. To reduce side effects of meds
d. To stop masculising effects of testosterone
e. To remove the need to take anti-androgens
f. Meds have had a detrimental & painful effect on your testicles, &
surgery is the only viable solution.

My reasons for planning an orchi are points a to e.

Other considerations
After an Orchi, you are at substantial risk of osteoporosis
& will require drugs to offset this risk, for the rest of your life.

How to proceed
First you require one or possibly two psychs to write a letter to
advise why an orchi is desirable & required. You may well struggle at
this first point. I've raised the question on the last two occasions
with my gender psychs. This resulted in vague answers, Humm....

You will require a psych to sign off on this, to cover the surgeon
against legal action in the future, if you then later regret it.

The surgeon will certainly require you to sign a letter which removes
said surgeon from any liability.

In the uk, Private surgery is ?1500 to ?2000. the price reflecting
whether its done under local or general anaesthetic.

Its usually a day surgery, not requiring an overnight stay.

Appearance.
A friend had an orchi, 4 years ago. The results look fantastic, just
totally right.

This is something I've been considering for about 4 years.
I've chatted to my friend about it, obviously, & also another, who had
surgery 6 yrs ago.

Do you still get hard & orgasm?
Yes in both cases, though it takes a lots longer to do both.
Obviously there is no seaman but a clear discharge at orgasm. This
stops after about two years.
I can relate to that as due to my level of meds, my previous large
volume of sperm is reduced often to either a clear liquid or no liquid
at all....Goody, saves on clean up tissues! ;-)

BTW, orgasms are as intense.

Note.
You may cease to have erections or they may tail off.
Possibly the same with orgasms as well.
I think much of this is as much to do with what's going on in your
head as much as whether you have testicles.

...As they say mileages may vary.


Please note, I have absolutely no medical training of ANY TYPE.
Before seriously considering acting on having an orchi, consult with
your psych. & health care providers. Its a major decision.
