neutered

powerless / sterilized
Adjective

In a biological sense, this term is a clinical descriptor for the surgical removal of reproductive organs. While it is used for both males and females, it is often used as a general term in veterinary contexts to describe any animal that cannot reproduce, regardless of the specific procedure performed.

When used figuratively, the word carries a strong connotation of loss or forced submission. It describes something that has been stripped of its "teeth" or its ability to cause impact, often implying that the change was imposed by an external authority to make the subject harmless or compliant.
