What Is Gynecomastia?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As the simplest meaning, gynecomastia<\/strong> is a situation for men having enlarged breasts. Having unwanted enlarged breasts can be the result of an imbalance of hormones (testosterone and estrogen). Surprisingly, gynecomastia<\/strong> does not affect both breasts evenly. Sometimes, it affects one breast. But sometimes it unevenly affects both breasts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Gyn\u00e4komastie <\/strong>can be seen in a newborn, a boy, a teenager, and even an old man. This happens when their normal hormonal levels change. Usually, it is not considered a problem. However, especially for teenagers and young adults, it can be a tough condition to deal with. Men with this condition may rarely have pain in their breasts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In some cases, gynecomastia <\/strong>can disappear on its own. This happens when the hormonal change reverses on the patient\u2019s body. If it remains for a long time and makes the patient uncomfortable, the doctors can suggest medication and even surgery to help.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How Can You Understand If You Have Gynecomastia or Not?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Men who have gynecomastia <\/strong>mostly do not show any symptoms. But sometimes, the disease reveals itself with symptoms or signs such as tenderness and pain on a breast or both breasts, swollen tissue, and sensitivity on breasts and nipples. The signs can be seen on just one breast or both breasts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
