Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction)

Gynecomastia is the technical name for a condition most of the general public refer to as “man boobs or moobs”. It is a condition that can run in families, and it is an embarrassing condition which causes the male breast tissue to be more prominent. Gynecomastia can also be attributed to other things such as the regular smoking of marijuana, and the use of steroids, for performance enhancement in sports and exercise. It could also be down to weight gain, even if it does seem disproportionate to your size, losing weight could help the situation. Despite all these possibilites, it can often just happen, with no knowledge of where, why and how it appeared.

As a man, having prominent breasts can be quite disconcerting. It can be very embarrassing when changing in public, especially as a young man potentially still at school. This can lead to bullying and teasing which can leave emotional scars later in life. You could have problems in your sexual relationships, and lack the confidence to enter into a relationship. You could be unhappy with your physical appearance, and how your clothes sit. We find people tend to wear baggy clothing to try and cover the gynecomastia.
