WHAT DOES DESEX MEAN IN ENGLISH?

desex

Castration

Castration is any action, surgical, chemical or otherwise, by which a biological male loses use of the testes. This causes sterilization; it also greatly reduces the production of certain hormones, such as testosterone. The term "castration" is sometimes also used to refer to the removal of the ovaries in the female, otherwise known as an oophorectomy or, in animals, spaying. Estrogen levels drop precipitously following oophorectomy, and long-term effects of the reduction of sex hormones are significant throughout the body. Castration of non-human animals is intended for favouring a desired development of the animal or of his habits, or preventing overpopulation.
