Middle eastern eunuchs (of the Ottoman Court Harem- 1465-1853 & the Dolmabahce Palace 1853-1909) may have had either their testes removed or all of their male genitalia removed. Black eunuchs often had everything removed, whereas white eunuchs tended to have only their testes removed. White eunuchs were banned from harem access around 1582, perhaps because some could still penetrate females in the harem.

Regarding the question if eunuchs who had only their testes removed could still have penetrative sex, the answer is that some might have been able to. The testes produce about 90% of total testosterone in the male body. Testosterone deprivation can cause erectile dysfunction, though some male to female individuals who have had their testes removed can still get sufficiently hard erections. This may also have been the case for certain eunuchs.

Is eunuch an operation?

A eunuch is a male, who had his testicles removed in childhood. The operation was the surgical removal of his testicles. The testicles produce testosterone, or the hormone which give a man his masculine features. He retains his penis. When he becomes an adult, he has long legs and long arms like a man. His body is more rounded like a woman's and his voice does not develop like a woman's. He has more strength than a woman. Other animals have their testicles removed. When a bull has its testicles removed, it becomes a steer. Put a yoke on a steer and it becomes an ox ready to pull a plow. A steer is also used for beef for the table. When a stallion has its testicles removed it becomes a gelding. When children go riding they frequently ride calm geldings rather than wild stallions. Male pigs or boars become shoats.

Through his urethra just like anyone else. Various cultures applied different degrees of mutilations, some removed both penis and testicles, others only the testicles. With only the testicles removed, urination is as it was before. For those who applied full amputation, some sort of pipe or small tube was usually inserted into the urethra to allow urination during healing. There's some report that eunuchs would continue using a tube for that purpose even after healing as a means of achieving a directed flow.
