Understanding
Male Breast Enlargement
An enlargement of male breast tissues commonly referred to as “man boobs.” This condition, often characterized by a woman-like breast appearance or pointed nipples, can lead to discomfort and self-consciousness for many men, especially as such features can be noticeable even under clothing.
Gynecomastia can be a source of embarrassment and insecurity, but there are surgical solutions available to reduce the prominence of enlarged male breasts.
⇒ The causes of gynecomastia vary across different life stages
Gynecomastia can arise at any life stage, notably during puberty due to hormonal shifts leading to temporary estrogen dominance and breast tissue development, affecting around 50% of teenage boys. In adults, obesity can elevate estrogen levels due to increased fat tissue.
Various medical conditions (like hyperthyroidism, Klinefelter syndrome, kidney, and liver diseases) and a range of medications (including antibiotics, heart and anti-anxiety medications, AIDS treatments, antidepressants, chemotherapy, and drugs for heartburn) are also known to cause gynecomastia.
