I've noticed my nipples are rather large. One of them is also slightly bigger than the other. I did some research and I think it might by gynecomastia or maybe just genetics. It would be very helpful if someone may identify if it is or not. I've been exercising a lot, do you think this will be a problem once I reach 10 percent bodyfat? Thanks in advance!
Answer: Who is a Gynecomastia Surgery Candidate According to official statistics, 36% of adult young men and 57% of older #adult men in the United States have this medical condition in one of the four grades. About 200,000 to 3 million cases of #gynecomastia are being reported every single year.

Answer: Gynecomastia Hello,Thank you for your question. It looks like you may have a mild case of Gynecomastia and asymmetry, however an in-person exam with a board certified Plastic Surgeon will be the best way to find out. An excess growth of breast tissue cannot be reduced with weight/fat loss. Gynecomastia affects all shapes and sizes of men- slim ones as well. The surgical techniques used to address this can include excision of glandular tissue and liposuction. I recommend that you book your in-person consultation with a Plastic Surgeon who specialises in this procedure and find out about your options.All the best

Answer: Do I have gynecomastia or pseudogynecomastia? Thank you for the question and pictures. Accurate diagnosis would necessitate physical examination. It IS important to differentiate gynecomastia ( excess breast tissue) from lipomastia ( otherwise known as pseudo-gynecomastia or excess adipose tissue of chest wall). Treatment will differ depending on diagnosis. In most cases, gynecomastia is treated with resection of the excess breast tissue; peripheral chest liposuction may also be helpful. If your chest wall is still of concern, seek consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience achieving the types of outcomes you will be pleased with.
