The difference is that chemical castration is typically a course of drugs that alter the body’s hormone production while it’s being taken to reduce sexual desire/function, when the subject stops taking the drugs the body returns to its natural hormone balance.
Physical mutilation is a one off, permenant, irreversible operation.
The problem is that the term chemical castration is wildly misleading in its attempt to describe the process.
it also causes loss in bone density causing osteoporosis, debilitates fat absorbson causing heart disease, causes men to grow breasts and women to lose them, and can cause anemia, infertility, depression and diabetes.
