The presence of breast tissues in guys is referred to as gynecomastia. The phrase is derived from the Greek words gyne (woman) and mastos (mast) (breast). Gynecomastia is widespread and sometimes causes anxiety in families, but it is typically a natural aspect of teenage growth. Pathologic gynecomastia does occur and can be caused by a severe underlying condition. Any aberrant breast growth in men should be evaluated.
Gynecomastia usually resolves on its own, but if there is an underlining problem, it may require treatment. If the problem is caused by a medicine, the patient may need to change medications. The condition will be transitory if the patient just uses the medicine for a brief time. Treatment may be required if the problem does not cure within two years, or if it causes embarrassment, discomfort, or soreness. Treatment is uncommon. Breast reduction surgeries or hormone treatment to counteract the effects of estrogens are options.
The breast is made up of glandular tissue that is hard and thick, as well as soft, fatty tissue. The ratio varies from person to person. A guy suffering from gynecomastia may have an excess of both types of tissue. Liposuction can be used to remove extra fatty tissue. A tiny tube is inserted through with a 3- to 4-millimeter incision. Excision is the removal of extra glandular tissue by cutting this out with a knife. This usually results in a scar along the nipple’s edge.
Most cases of gynecomastia resolve on their own over time. If you are taking medicine that has the ability to cause gynecomastia, your doctor may recommend you to stop taking them or replace them with other medicines. When there is no obvious cause of gynecomastia other than normal hormonal imbalances during adolescence, the doctor may also recommend periodic reevaluations every three to six months to see if the situation improves on its own. Gynecomastia usually resolves on its own in less than two years.
If gynecomastia does not improve on its own or causes massive pain, tenderness, or awkwardness, treatment may be required. Excess breast tissue is surgically removed. If enlarged breasts persist despite initial treatment or observation, your doctor may recommend surgery.
There are two gynecomastia surgery alternatives:
Liposuction. This procedure removes breast fat but not breast gland cells.
Mastectomy. The breast gland tissue is removed during this type of surgery. Small incisions are frequently used in surgery. This less-intrusive type of surgery has a shorter recovery period.
