Asked By:WhatAsafer in Sydney, AU

I believe i have gyno. you can clearly see my breasts through shirts, nipples are puff and also visible. i'm 17 years old, 5 ft 5 and weigh 61 kilos. The right nipple is much larger then my left. I am able to feel a hard round shape behind left nipple. can be tender and sore sometimes. Began noticing it about a year ago. how do you stop it from coming back or getting any worse then it is now at this stage? is this gyno or fat tissue? is surgery necessary in order to fix it? thank you
