I am a 18 year old male, and my birthday is in October. my breast are a little large and one is bigger than the other. There are also like fatty deposits I can feel inside of both of them. but more so on the left one. Also there is some pain that started yesterday or maybe today. I am not sure what to think of this. My one breast has always been bigger, and I have always had these things inside there for as long as I can remember. but the pain is what has me confused because it is new. Any help?

Answer: Male, one breast larger than the other. Thank you for sharing your question. Without photographs or an in-person examination it is difficult to offer definite advice so I would see an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation. Whether normal tisssue, gynecomastia, or pseudogynecomastia your plastic surgeon can offer you appropriate treatment recommendations.

Answer: Gynecomastia and Breast Pain Gynecomastia is caused by excess breast tissue and fat. Pseudogynecomastia is caused by fat only. Most men have both breast tissue and fat. In some cases there can be pain associated with enlarged breasts, or there may be other causes. You should see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who specializes in gynecomastia to evaluate your situation and give you recommendations. Good luck.

Answer: Gynecomastia It sounds as if you have gynecomastia. Since you are 18, you are old enough to consider surgery to fix the issue. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to be examined in person and discuss your options. There is no reason to live with this if you don't want to.
