Does gynecomastia affect running and stamina?

In general, after male breast reduction, give yourself at least 6 weeks before hitting the gym hard or running.   If you exercised prior to the surgery, your stamina should return within a short time.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  Gynecomastia will not affect your running nor your stamina.  Hope this helps.

No, gynecomastia not have any effect on your ability to run and/or your stamina level. Also, after gynecomastia surgery (and the necessary time for complication free healing), you should be able to return to full function, exercise, and stamina. I hope this helped.

Hello. Once you have recovered from the surgery your energy levels should return to normal.So follow your surgeons post operative instructions and start exercising as advised.

Your question clearly was related to a medical necessity for gynetomastia surgery. It was not directed to restrictions in activities after the surgery. Gynecomastic does not affect your stamina or ability to run.

After surgery, I typically advise my patients to wait 6 weeks before returning to vigorous exercise. Also, anytime that you have surgery, it takes time for your body to heal and recover. This may affect your endurance but as your body recovers, so will your endurance and stamina. Best of luck.
