My nipples fluctuate in size throughout the day, does gyno change at all or is it "fixed" once u have it?
Answer: Fluctuation in nipple size during the day is normal and will likely persist after gynecomastia surgery Thanks for your question. True gynecomastia, enlargement of the glandular breast tissue in men, might change in size over a period of months or years, particularly if aggravated by intake of anabolic steroids or other hormone modifiers. But the changes over the course of a day are due to the contraction/relaxation of the smooth muscle in the skin of the areola, a normal physiologic response to temperature changes. Your pictures do seem to show a small amount of excess breast gland that could be effectively treated with surgery. A proper examination by your PS will confirm. While surgery could improve your overall breast contour, fluctuations will likely still continue after surgery and should not be considered abnormal. Hope this helps.

Answer: My nipples fluctuate in size throughout the day, would gyno surgery help with this? (Photos) Nipple fluctuation in size throughout the day is normal. If you are not taking or have taken steroids ( Dianabol, Anadrol or Sustanon), overused alcohol, heroin, marijuana, or finasteride, you may have a mild case of gynecomastia that can be corrected surgically.

Answer: My nipples fluctuate in size throughout the day, would gyno surgery help with this? (Photos) Thank you for sharing your excellent question and photographs. Assuming you have some mild gynecomastia present behind each nipple, surgery should improve, if not largely resolve the fluctuations you experience. That said remember it is normal to have alterations in the tissue throughout the day in response to temperature fluctuations or stimulation. Hope this helps.

Answer: Mild gynecomastia surgery it looks like you have some very mild gynecomastia changes (grade 1 out of 4 on the scale used to classify it) confined to the area under the nipple. That’s called “discoid” gynecomastia. It’s pretty easily removed with a small incision along the edge of the areola (the pigmented skin around your nipple). That should flatten that projection you don’t like in a sustained fashion
