Hi Everyone,

A Good friend of mine had them put in a jar to take home as a souvenir. She sold them on Ebay recently for over $250, nice.

Luv & Hugs for you all.

But them in a sealed jar and on a shelf where new "guy friends " can see them and when asked what it is nonchalantly say "oh that was my last boyfrinds balls"   

You can also tell that to any future boyfriends.

Why even keep them if you are just going to sell them?

This is the funniest thread I've read in over three years on this forum, my cheeks hurt.
I'm leaning towards the paperweight idea myself, I'm also toying with having them metal coated and joined together with a chain so if anyone tried getting physical (the bad kind of physical) then I could slap them round the chops with my "balls", the ultimate insult to someone who's transphobic.

I'm also looking for one of those kits to make a home made massager so if someone tells me to go #### myself I can smile and thank them for the suggestion.

Am I the only one here that was curious and did a search of completed listings to see the Ebay ad? 

Some interesting items did come up in search.
Such a befitting 100th post don't ya think? 

[Heather Exley]

I don't think it's legal in the US & European union but when did legality stop Ebay. I once saw 25gm of reagent grade Picric acid on Ebay.

Typically, unwanted tissue and other waste materials are incinerated.

All joking aside, seriously what do they do with them, do they incinerate them, do they hold on to them for medical students for tests etc, it's 30 years this year since I had my srs and had mine removed, it wasn't the sort of question I'd ask at the time, just like getting 2 tumours removed, did they keep them for a few months, then destroy them, I've absolutely no idea.

Since I'm Intersex, I plan on donating them to science if I can.  Since mine failed to develop, because of a female puberty I'm rather curious to see what happened to them.

In the UK they are incinerated after the surgery with all contaminated items that cannot be sterilised.

Luv & Hugs for you all.

I wish I could find the link, but I remember reading about someone planning to make them into earrings.

Ha Ha! Funny you should say that!

For those you have wondered what happens to your testicles during GRS, they are discarded as medical waste. I heard someplace that at one time they were repurposed as transplants for cancer patients but the results weren't all that successful and apparently did not justify the risks and cost. So they just chuck 'em in the bin.

The night before surgery I was sharing a room with another patient, and we were resting and getting settled for our Big Day. After a light dinner we were approached by a research assistant from a nearby university medical school who wanted our nuts. Seems they were doing AIDS research and needed healthy, HIV-negative testicles for study. Naturally, we had been tested and found to be HIV-negative as a condition of surgery, so we were good candidates. She asked us if we'd be willing to sell her our nuggets.

Huh?

It was pretty hard to stifle laughter as we made the transaction, and the money was inconsequential compared to the bragging rights we got for having marketable junk. We'd never heard of this happening to anyone, and just by chance we were the only two patients there during that time period who were given this deal.

We each got $40 CDN (per each pair), hardly enough for more than a small bar tab. But we spent the next 10 days of recovery joking about what we'd do with our "nut bucks" once we got out of the joint.  My friend bought a new tattoo and I got a nice pair of earrings, as it seemed appropriate that I'd exchange one hanging pair for another.

I asked. Mine got send to a research facility laboratory in a hospital, to check if there is any cancers or something. It seems that this is policy for any bodily material that is taken, it's needs to be analyzed for diseases that might indicate a potential risk for other organs nearby. Sometimes they can also do scientific research on it and collect data. Then they burn it in a special oven in another facility which processes biological waste. ^_^ So mine went up in smoke... hihi...

i actually asked Dr Bowers if my gonads could be donated for research on the long term effects of HRT to the tissues. but unfortunately, such studies are far and few between.

I have on the other hand heard of patients requesting to have the gonads relocated to where they would have been as ovaries...

[YonceKnowles]

I always wondered what do they do with it once surgery is over. Do they throw it away or they use it for ftm's surgery or what do they do with it exactly?

They had them in a jar and made me take a picture with them.... UGHHHH I was so disgusted.

[Valwen]

forget bronzing given how expensive all this is they better get gold plated at the very least perhaps some gem stones on the old stones balljazzle them up a bit.

Really I think the only reason I would ever want to keep them is to freak out friends but I think I can do that once just once with some partially cooked meatballs and the phrase "close your eyes.....What dose this feel like.....Wrong!" but only once because I am only slightly evil.
