Will gynecomastia come back after surgery if I stay on Propecia? (Photo)

budhogan1
I have been on propecia for 8 years, which I believe has slowed, though not stopped, my hair loss. Until recently the only side effects have been some hair loss on my lower legs. Just recently I've begun to develop gynecomastia. If I have corrective surgery but stay on propecia will it come back?
