Can somebody school me on what gynecomastia is? I keep hearing people here talking about it. What is it exactly? How do you know if you have it? What's the difference between it and regular chest fat boobs? What EXACTLY does it feel like? What does it look like?
Bitch tits.
The most common causes are gear, being a fat fuck and hypochondria
>>36874183
all males have some mammary glands. some males however develop breasts through hormone imbalances. apparently it feels like marbles under the nipple of you have it, and is often very sensitive and can result in lactation. for a real diagnosis, you need to visit a doctor. there is a condition known as pseudogynocomastia, where it appears you have developed breasts but instead are just a ham beast fat fuck.

Oh god...oh god. Let me just say that, as a kid (ages 5-12, BTW), I was on a few pills for some ADD stuff. One of those pills, don't remember the name, caused weight gain and gynecomastia. So, at 13 after taking it for 7 years, I had a potbelly and an A-cup. So, I start trying to get rid of em. Age 20 now, still got small tits, belly's getting smaller. Shit sucks, and I feel like a half-baked twink.
You know you have it if you can grab a pec in your hand.
The difference between fat boobs is that gynomastia is caused by hormones or meds
It feels exactly like standard boobs do, but on yourself.
Looks like small fat boobs.
>>36874234
> taking pills for a meme "illness"
Put your fingertips under your nipples and scoop up your pecs. If you feel a bounce you have gyno.
>>36874251
It was the late 90s gimme a fuckin break. It was my mom's idea, anyway.
>>36874183
Fatbody hear. I had a mammogram at the age of 29 to rule out cancer. Was just gynecomastia.
Mine feels firm, like a firm disc of tissue under the nipple. I have more on my right side than my left.
>>36874234
I don't know what standard boobs feel like. This isn't helpful.
>>36874286
By "under the nipple" do you mean below the nipple as in behind the nipple or below the nipple area as in south of your nipple?
>>36874200
By hypochondria do you mean, most people who think they have it are freaking out over nothing because they most likely don't have it?
>>36874253

Ok guys, I'm about to blow your mind: Gyno is curable without surgery.
Mind blown? It should be. Think about it, most teens get Gyno, but it goes within a couple years, so the gland can't be permenant like they claim, right? It's all scheme to make you pay thousands for a simple procedure you don't need. It also ties into the fact that our governments are putting estrogen into products to pacify the men of today, by turning them into estrogenic bitches.
I cleared mine by myself. If you want to know more, I'll happily continue.
>>36874429
Sure. What'd you do?
>>36874429

>>36874429
JUST
>>36874429
You didn't have gyno then faggot.
Had it since 12.
Have done EVERYTHING.
Including drugs roider's use (AI's and Letro). No plastics, pristine diet, exercise.
The lot.
IT IS PERMANMENT
>>36874429
>just click this link to my blog, it'll explain everything

Basically high levels of estrogen enriched ingredients have been found in: caffeine, soap, shampoo, toothpaste, skin products, processed meats, and many more.
This is why Gyno affects so many men today. To get rid of it, stop using the above products for a few weeks and do at least an hour of high intensity cardio a day, eat green vegetables, white fish and beef every day as these foods both block estrogen, and produce testosterone. Drink only water. Cut out all super and carbs. The cardio actually works to eliminate the gland, I guarantee you after a couple days doing this your Gyno will start to sting slightly and you'll feel a slight pressure like its being pinched, this means it's working and it's starting to decline, within 3-4 weeks it'll be gone, within 2 weeks a drastic change will be made. Once it's gone it's gone, and you can return to a normal lifestyle. If it was permenant teenage boys wouldn't lose it after two years. Women's breast get larger during pregnancy because of the excess estrogen, and get smaller again afterwards. Look at all the female bodybuilder so, their tits are non-existent? Why? Because of all the test they pump into themselves with steroids. There is estrogen in EVERYTHING nowadays. The glands permanence is a myth so you'll shell out 4000 euro/dollars for a simple sub-dermal procedure. They're pumping estrogen into everything because it causes you to think more submissively, they want to pacify the male population for the same reasons they don't want you to have guns.Also I forget to mention: Plastics and Tupperware are fucking lethal for estrogen, stop eating things from plastic containers, and ESPECIALLY don't heat food up in Tupperware containers. Also stop touching your Gyno, man boobs, it stimulates growth. I know I sound like a wacky Alex Jones type, but trust me, thinking this is bullshit is what they want you to do.

Hey OP,
Guy with a cracking pair of gyno tits here.
What is it?: It's basically male titties. I got mine from being super fat as a teenager and smoking weed alot; which apparently didn't help.
How do you know you have it?: Well usually you have a pair of tits so it's obvious, but it can also manifest as puffy nipples or little tittles on your pecs you can never get rid of. If you chest shrinks and seems tighter and smaller when its cold; chances are you have gyno.
Difference between it and fat?: Fat boobs go away when working out and dieting, they also don't get sensitive or shrink because of the cold. Finally surgery is really only answer to 'cure' gyno
What does it feel like: Mine feel like tiny beads / mesh beneath my nipple, it also extends round into my underarm to create a full 'breast' as it was making the whole area sensitive.
What does it look like: Boobs ffs. Google teen tits. Mine are like fucking C cups mate. Most girls don't even fucking notice unless you have bigger boobs than them anyway. Also I have massive nipples but luckily didn't get lactation.
>>36874183
>tfw very mild gyno, only noticeable when you look for it.
I don't want to pay for surgery when it's such a minor problem but at the same time no matter how hard I work I'll never be perfect.
>>36874490
Yup, this works is you have PSUEDO gyno, not the real thing.
>>36874490
so it's a joke way to get people to stop practicing good hygiene for 4 weeks.
>>36874490
>>36874514
Btw, you can get gyno surgery on the NHS for FREE. Do you think doctor would give you FREE surgery, if it wasnt the only cure??
Get you head out you arse and realise on you americucks are the only ones who have have to pay for healthcare. All your theories of the evil medi-jew don't work in the rest of the civilised world.
>>36874200
>The most common causes are gear

U wot m8?
>>36874490
gotta be honest, this seems like it might maybe work. If I had gyno and wanted to get rid of it i'd try this.
>>36874494
>smoking weed alot
is the weed increasing estrogen thing true? seen some conflicting studies, got mild gyno and dont wanna exacerbate it
>>36874346
Lol
I m 15% bf
Gyno or just fat?
>>36874626
Squeeze under nipple. If there's a hard lump, it's Gyno.
>>36874626
I would guess its just fat. But you should keep and eye for it.
I have it too, but Im 20 pounds above my ideal weight AND never did exercises in 30 years of age.
>>36874537
we have the best health care because we pay for it. it's why all the best doctors want to work here. the US doesn't favor the poor but it's incredibly generous to those with money
>>36874349
Underneath. Mine is about half dollar sized with the nipple in the bottom right corner of the "coin", if you're oriented facing towards me.
Are you concerned about it? You should talk to your doctor. As long as it doesn't feel irregular, that's probably what it is, but a mammogram would be the best way to confirm. DESU women whine about mammograms a lot, it really wasn't that bad. But, I don't have much in the way of tit.

I don't know, I have large man boobs but I'm also kinda overweight, I've started lifting and running 10k four times a week for the past month as well as better diet. My nipples look slightly puffy, but not much, when I pinch the nipple both fingers meet without feeling any hardness, if I lie on my back and push my finger directly down into the nipple I feel my pec without anything else, if I feel around that area thoroughly I feel tons of little beads, it's like the inside of the breast is a doughnut with the hole directly under the nipple and everything everywhere else. I feel these beads all the way up my chest to my collar bone and I also feel then in my belly fat, so it could just be hard fatty matter. From just a general aesthetic they look similar to Gyno examples I've seen, when I'm cold it almost disappears, and when I lie on my back they almost disappear, they haven't gotten any smaller since I started losing weight, but I've heard chest fat is one of the last places you lose fat from.
Generally I'm confused and concerned.

Gyno is an imbalance of hormones in the male system. That for whatever reason activates like a cancer and causes male breast growth.
There is no known reason for it to develop, some males have abnormally high estrogen and never develop it. Some males have really good testosterone levels and develop it.
The most common think link though is genetic disposition and obesity.
Gyno is incredibly common, statistics are so skewed on it that some numbers say 50% of all males will develop it at some point in their life and the body will properly balance itself out over time, while 20% have what we consider the disorder(the skinny fags with bitch tits).
Weight gain is the leading cause of hormonal imbalance in men, since fat cells are estrogen producing.
People who think they have gyno generally lose weight and the problem solves itself, while real gyno fags are either stick figure with actual breast or fat fags with double d breast.
I had really hard discs under my nips
They were about nickel sized
Developed in my teens
broke down for the most part by late 20's but nips are still a little puffy :(
here's my quandary:
Spent my entire teenage years as a skinny fat. I didn't eat well (fast-food and soda multiple times a week, always indulged without thinking) but played ice hockey and was always active when out with friends so not hopeless mode. Just, unkempt. I had gyno on a still otherwise slight frame, but high enough body fat for 40% of it to just be fat. But there was too much of the gyno relative to the rest of my body for it to be just my diet. Plus they are relatively painful to put any sort of pressure on, My titties were handfuls, but you could still see my ribcage.
Nearly three years ago I got a very physical job. Within a matter of months, I noticed my body taking better shape. Began working out and really liking the results. Came here, pushed myself, set some goals, got a gf, yadda yadda yadda. Three years later, I now have very close to my ideal body. I lift obsessively, and do calisthenics whenever I'm bored. Anyone would look at me and recognize that I take working out very seriously.
The only problem is... the gyno. Yes, the 40% is gone. But 60% of it lingers on. Yet, whenever I read people talk about gyno, they mention hard lumps, puffy nips, etc. Mine aren't like that. They are literal bitch tits. But, I can literally lift and separate the fatty tissue from my otherwise ripped chest, and can do the "pec dance" despite all the jiggly bits. Now, my diet has improved, but I still eat poorly from time to time. I've never committed to a totally clean lifestyle because I love epicurean delights, but I'm wondering if it's somehow possible that my bitch tits literally have been fat that I can burn off this entire time, or if I just got the shittiest end of the gene stick.
Also, in Canada, you think I could fib and mention that they're "getting bigger/more swollen" and "have become painful" and "interfere with my work" (which is partly true, holding heavy object against my chest can hurt like a bitch) and possibly get the surgery?
Do you just ever grab your bitch tits while jerking off and pretend It's a girl?
I need to know for a school project...

This guy here again
>>36875917
What you guys describe is much closer to what I have. I can feel "beads" throughout the fatty tissue, although I liken it more to like a mycelium fibre or something (weird woven patterns almost), and it goes all the way to the armpit and almost to the collar bone as well. The size does change from day to day too. For example, I feel like my tits are like cow udders whenever I eat something deep fried, and when I have a healthy chill day, or it's cold, they firm up and look more like a natural strong chest. Same thing about the doughnut hole too. I can push straight down on my nipple into nowhere land, it's a literal hole, like a mole mound. With the tissue built up around it. Also, my right and left pecs are different shapes/sizes. Well, they aren't, but the tissue is.
I share your concern. Like I say, I've never committed to a healthy enough lifestyle to find out whether I could totally eradicate with diet. But based on the gains I've made and the lack of change in my chest compared to the rest of my body, I think it will require surgery. Luckily it's not that bad visually. To the touch though, it's a heaping mess. My gf even laughs and plays with my nips. She pretends it's just because it's a sensitive area, but I'm fairly sure it's cuz she's surprised how much there is to grab hold of...
>>36874383
Fucking lol
Anybody have glandular type tissue (the "beady" stuff) on their hips too?
if I grab my belly (not that there's much fat), I don't feel the beads. But if I grad my hips, which carry much more fat than the average person, I can feel the beads identical to the gyno. I have been tested for testosterone, and the doc said my levels were normal.
What the fuck does gyno feel like, I don't fele any hard fucking bumps
Is it possible to like have gyno but only on one side
my friend is asking
D-do i have gyno?

Post a better picture. It's too hard to tell.
Gynecomastia is abnormally excessive breast tissue in males. All males have breast tissue, but hormone imbalances or receptor sensitivities may cause the tissue to grow more than it ideally should.
These are either caused by puberty or by use of gear. Nobody knows what the exact mechanism is in puberty, but you are somewhat mroe susceptible to environmental factors. For example, tea tree oil soaps are shown to cause gyno in teens, but not in adults. Some people also speculate xenoestrogens in the environment have the effect of causing such hormone imbalances during susceptible times like puberty. Drug use is also correlated with gyno, such as marijuana, alcohol, or cocaine use. The jury is still out on marijuana, but all research tends to show excess usage causes it. With gear it usually is because you failed to take an aromatase inhibitor when you get off. Testosterone is not used by the body, but dihydroxytestosterone (DHT) is. Test can be converted to estradiol (estrogen) or DHT. If you take roids, your body stops producing Test and DHT, so when you stop you're body restarts production and the higher amount of Test goes down the DHT and estrogen pathway. aromatase is the enzyme converting Test to Estrogen. By inhibiting it you effectively prevent gyno from forming. If gyno has already formed after steroid use, you can still reverse it by taking some anti-breast cancer drug, it works by the same mechanism as an aromatase inhibitor.

It can manifest itself as being either very hard and glandular, gland mixed with fat which is softer, or you just naturally store fat in the chest (which is called pseudogynecomastia). The end result is a bit of a nodule underneath the nipple. The best way to diagnose is to lose body fat and look at your chest from various angles. Usually you will see that the breast forms a bit of a conical shape from a diagonal view. If it's bad enough you can see it from any angle. In my case, it wasn't too bad, but you could tell it was definitely gyno when viewed from the diagonal view. If the nipples were soft I would just look a bit chubby but if they were hard you couldn't tell I had gyno at all. Gyno can only be treated via surgery. If you have a hard nodule it is easier to remove as you only need to do gland excision which is a cut underneath the areola. If you have mixed fat with gland, you have to do the gland excision as well as a liposuction which is made underneath the armpits. In my particular case I was at about 13% bf and still had the gland mixed with fat. If it's pseudogynecomastia it just means you naturally store fat in the area, so you either maintain low bf% or you get lipo in the area if that gets to be too annoying.
>>36876326
Can't tell. Take a picture directly from the side, one diagonally with the camera positioned in front of you, and if you can one diagonally with the camera positioned behind you. You're at a low enough bf % that we can tell but you need to get it at those angles.
