Have gynecomastia/pseudogynecomastia. Is this covered by OHIP if my quality of life is impacted and there is some pain? (Photo)

I have had it since i was a teenager and it has never gone away. I have puffy nipples and some pain when pressing on the chest. I have worked out and been down to single digit body fat and still showed then. it seems to cause what looks to be a lot of chest fat as well wrapping under the armpit area. It has made me feel uncomfortable and ashamed to take my shirt off in front of people.
