Do I have gyno? (photos)

Turbo1122
Hi, I am 31 5' 9" 147lbs. I believe i have gyno and had it since middle school. I have struggled to gain weight for years and anytime i did gain it would go to my chest/thighs. I believe my condition is considered "skinny fat" I have been working out for the past three months in hopes to gain lean muscle in my upper chest. Will working out my chest make gyno more pronounced? Unfortunately at this time surgery would be out due to insurance not covering. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
