Do I have gynecomastia? I have always wondered if I have gyno or am lacking chest muscle, or need to lose more weight (Photo)

Healthy male patients with excess breast tissue or unwanted breast development who have no underlying breast disease.Men who desire improved physical and aesthetic appearance should have realistic expectations based on their condition and the procedure performed. You should meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to be able to get a formal diagnosis and to be able to decide on a course of treatment if necessary.

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs.  Your pictures appear to demonstrate more of a pseudogynecomastia appearance, but without an in-person evaluation of your tissues it is impossible to tell.  Oftentimes there is a small amount of gynecomastia with pseudogynecomastia with most patients benefitting from liposuction and direct glandular excision.  See an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation, they can offer you the best treatment option.

This is a question that I answer every day from dozens of folks from all over the world. The " appearance of a female like breast in a male" is the definition that I use. You appear to have rounded, small breasts. Your weight is fine. It's all about appearance. You don't have to feel rubbery tissue or have hormone tests to determine if you have gynecomastia. Unfortunately, once it has been around for a year it is not likely to change--weight loss/gain, diet, exercise and medications simply won't change the appearance of gynecomastia. Treatment is the removal of the tissue. Expertly performed, the results are nothing short of life changing. Remember that gynecomastia is a harmless condition to your physical health. The harm comes to your mental health in the way of poor self esteem, anxiety, obsessive compulsive activities and general social withdrawal. 

Thank you for the question and pictures. Accurate diagnosis would necessitate physical examination. It IS important to differentiate  as uncomfortable as gynecomastia ( excess breast tissue) from lipomastia ( otherwise known as pseudo-gynecomastia or excess adipose tissue of chest wall). Treatment will differ depending on diagnosis. 
Generally speaking, liposuction surgery alone is useful to treat lipomastia (an enlarged chest secondary to adipose tissue); rarely does it suffices as the only modality of treatment when it comes to treating true gynecomastia. Most patients with gynecomastia benefit from direct excision of glandular tissue plus/minus peripheral liposuction surgery.
My best suggestion: get to where you want to be through healthy diet/exercise, if you are not already there.  Then, if you remain concerned about the appearance of the chest wall, seek consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience achieving the types of outcomes you will be pleased with.

First, I want to commend you on taking control of your health and losing the weight. Second, based solely on your photos, you do appear to have gynecomastia. My best advice would be to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to be examined in person and discuss your options. Best of luck.

You do have Gynecomastia condition. It can be treated .For best results you need a surgeon who specializes in gynecomastia surgery. You can try to lose wight for a few months and see what happens.

Hello and thank you for your question. Well done for having taken the decision for a healthy lifestyle and having the determination to stick to it. From the photographs it does look like gynaecomastia, but it would be good to see a board certified cosmetic surgeon who can confirm after examination.There are good surgical options available which your surgeon will be able to discuss with you if needed.

Yes, you have gynecomastia from your prior weight. That type of residual gynecomastia is not going to resolve beyond where you are right now in all likelihood. For surgical treatment of that, your best results are going to be a combination of liposuction and a direct excision of the central breast tissue.

Congratulations on your decision to lose weight! Oftentimes with weight gain the level of estrogen also goes up and can contribute to breast tissue formation. Weight loss can lead to loose skin and droopiness especially in the belly and chest. You are a young man so your tissues should still be quite elastic. Sometimes though, they do not go back to what they were before all the weight gain. You do appear to have extra fat on your chest. I cannot say without examining you whether this is gynecomastia or just fatty tissue. Gynecomastia is excess breast tissue and feels different from just fat. Either way, there are good options for treating this with liposuction, excision, or a combination of both depending on your needs. You may consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to answer your questions and see about your options for treatment. I hope this helps! -Dr. Mills
