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: 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. You may find the attached link helpful to you as you learn more. Best wishes.
