I'm 18 and have had gynecomastia for 4 years. It is my understanding that gynecomastia will come back even after surgery if I still have a hormonal imbalance. Whom should I check with to find the root cause of gynecomastia? Would the plastic surgeon be able to tell?

Answer: Who should I consult for gynecomastia? The specialist you'd need to see for a hormone imbalance would be an endocrinologist, but it's often best to start with your family physician. Hope that helps!

Answer: Gynecomastia and Hormone Imbalance Great question! You'll want to have your primary care physician refer you to an endocrinologist to evaluate for any hormonal imbalances. After cleared by an endocrinologist, you'll want to see a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in male plastic surgery to be evaluated for a gynecomastia procedure. Best of luck to you!
