Is their a technical name for a man that has his testicles surgically removed in USA?

Question

In China they used to have Eunichs, a man with his testicles removed so that he could be trusted around the women royalty. Just wondering if there is a process or a reason or special name for a man having this done now adays?

Answer 1

The process of testicle removal is called castration and, even today, a man with both testicles removed can be referred to as a Eunich. However the practice is pretty rare now a days since harmes have pretty well gone the way of the dodo bird.

Aside from Eunichs tending the needs of a ruler's wives in a harem, there was a tendency many years ago to select boys in a choir with excellent voices and remove their testicles before puberty so their voices would not change. This too has tended to not be widely practiced any more.

Otherwise, most men have two testicles and prefer to keep them both. However certain medical problems such as cancer or repeated rupture can result in the need to surgically remove one or both of them.

I analyze this a three hundred and sixty 5 days or 2 in the past, a growing circulation to "rid your self of the impression of testosterone." i imagine that is insanity. i can see how people may favor to be able to stay their lives without the aggression and sexual fixation that comes from being pumped finished of testosterone, besides the undeniable fact that that is an rather severe "answer" to a questionable issue. So in short, no. i'm holding them. Sorry to hearken to about your medical complications, it must be a negative ingredient of ought to flow by.
