There is just something about protruding breasts in a male that can result in teasing from peers. Typical behavior is to hide the chest when in public or shun others. Those bothered by the problem avoid swimming, taking their shirts off, and other activities where others can see their breasts. Many do not discuss their concerns with parents, peers, and do not understand the problem. Starting that dialog is important. Gynecomastia is a common condition affecting between 40 and 60% of all males. Breast development easily happens during adolescence and may have many possible causes. It can appear as a small lump just under the areola (colored skin around the nipple). During growth, this mass can be tender.

Gynecomastia Gynecomastia is defined as the visible or palpable development of breast tissue in boys or men. It has been divided into four types: Type I: (pubertal or benign adolescent breast hypertrophy) refers to the common entity seen in pubertal males. Incidence may be as high as 60-70%. It is typically a firm, tender, subareolar mass anywhere from 1-5 cm in diameter. The pubertal adolescent frequently complains of pain in the breasts, particularly when wearing binding clothing. It usually spontaneously resolves within 2 years. Type II (physiological gynecomastia without evidence of underlying disease, or with evidence of organic disease including the effects of specific drugs) refers to a generalized, nonpainful breast enlargement. It is essential to differentiate between physiologic gynecomastia and breast enlargement due either to a pathologic process or to the use of a specific drug. Careful history taking regarding the time of onset, family history, duration of enlargement, history of systemic illness, weight change, and drug or medication use, is important. Physical examination should include height, weight, blood pressure, breast size, and Tanner staging of both breasts and genitals, in addition to a neurologic assessment. Type III gynecomastia is general obesity simulating gynecomastia, and Type IV is pectoral muscle hypertrophy.

FastCounter by bCentral (as of 8/11/01) Gynecomastia in Men What is Gynecomastia? The term comes from the Greek words gyne meaning "woman" and mastos meaning "breast." In practical terms, this means abnormally large breasts on men. The condition is relatively common in adolescent boys, and 90% of the time symptoms disappear in a matter of months, or, as adolescence wanes, a few years later. But the remaining 10% are burdened with a social handicap that causes a deep and complex shame, and puts one's relationship with one's body at risk. There are several potential causes: puberty steroid abuse (bitch tits) obesity marijuana use (this is in question) tumors genetic disorders chronic liver disease side effects of many medications castration Klinefelter Syndrome Gilbert's Syndrome aging The Remedy In cases of obesity, weight loss can alter the gynecomastic condition, but for many it will not eliminate it. For all other causes, surgery is the only known physical remedy. Once the physical encumbrance is lifted, psychological scars still need to be addressed. One must come to terms with one's body, accept it, and heal the wounds from the past.

Tissue Expansion A word about breast reduction in men... Gynecomastia is a medical term that comes from the Greek words for "women-like breasts." Though this oddly named condition is rarely talked about, it's actually quite common. Gynecomastia affects an estimated 40 to 60 percent of men. It may affect only one breast or both. Though certain drugs and medical problems have been linked with male breast overdevelopment, there is no known cause in the vast majority of cases. For men who feel self-conscious about their appearance, breast-reduction surgery can help. The procedure removes fat and or glandular tissue from the breasts, and in extreme cases removes excess skin, resulting in a chest that is flatter, firmer, and better contoured. If you're considering surgery to correct gynecomastia, this brochure will give you a basic understanding of the procedurewhen it can help, how it's performed, and what results you can expect. It can't answer all of your questions, since a lot depends on your individual circumstances. Please be sure to ask your doctor if there is anything about the procedure you don't understand. THE BEST CANDIDATES FOR GYNECOMASTIA CORRECTION Surgery to correct gynecomastia can be performed on healthy, emotionally stable men of any age. The best candidates for surgery have firm, elastic skin that will reshape to the body's new contours.

It often does not require intervention. If there is a medical problem causing the growth, treating the problem can be very important. A stimulating factor should be removed. Your pediatrician or family doctor will help you decide if you will need an endocrinologist. Once breast glandular growth has been stimulated, it may not go away with medical treatment The male chest consists of skin, fat, muscle and possibly gland tissues. A localized collection of fat and or gland at the lower breast can give a look that is just not "male." The gland may be localized as a small firm mass just under the areola. Glandular tissue may spread finger-like through the softer fat. When the breast is very large, redundant skin can be an issue. Thickened tissues under the nipple and areola (colored skin around the nipple) can cause protrusion of the surface structures. Related Articles

Gynecomastia is when the male breast is enlarged. The size can vary from a slight puffiness to full female like breasts. That is where we get the word Gynecomastia "female like breasts" Myself and many other men are not going to have any surgery for various reasons. I am not going to because of my body weight and the size of my breasts. I would need two surgeries, the second one just to remove excess skin. Also surgery would not correct the fact that my body is "wired" to grow breasts.
