Answers:
"At first, a man who has been castrated will still have a sexual urge. Over time, however, because he's no longer producing testosterone, he'll lose much of his libido or sexual desire. Medications can readjust the chemicals in his blood and bring back some sexual desire. Studies have also been done that show with increased stimulation, a castrated man can actually get an erection, have sex, and orgasm (although he won't have any sperm in his ejaculate, which would be minimal in volume)."Health Question & Answer
Interesting question. I just finished reading a novel by Anne Rice "CRY TO HEAVEN" it was about castrato opera singers in Italy. According to her novel (which the author claims was based on research). The castrato characters had rather colorful sex lives. I always thought that if one was castrated, that sex would not be possible.Health Question & Answer
