When will my Gyno disappear? I am 13 years old (Photo)

Thank you for your question.Up to 2/3 of boys going through #puberty develop some
form of #gynecomastia due to the surges in #testosterone and estrogen which often lead to a hormone imbalance. Puberty is a difficult time for most boys, with
many changes occurring not just physically but also emotionally. Developing
gynecomastia during this age can affect the self-image and confidence of a
teenager. The peak incidence occurs around 14 years of age.

In
up to 75% of boys who develop pubertal gynecomastia, it will disappear without
treatment within 2 years. In 90% of boys with pubertal gynecomastia, it will
disappear without treatment within 3 years. If it persists for more than two years, you may wish to consult a #boardcertified #plasticsurgeon for a consultation.

It is common for adolescent boys to have some sort of excessive breast growth, but this tends to resolve itself as they approach adulthood. Maintaining a healthy weight also helps reduce the risk of gynecomastia. 

Hi,Sorry you are having this problem.Usually it resolves as you go through your teen years.  If not you may need surgery or an office procedure called CoolSculpting.  So, watch your weight, keep in good shape, and avoid smoking weed (which can cause this) and see what the years bring.  All the best, Dr. Joe
