What is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia, often called man boobs, is the enlargement of breast gland tissue in boys or men due to an imbalance between estrogen and testosterone hormones. This condition can affect one or both breasts.

Understand the Causes of Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia often results from an imbalance between the female hormone oestrogen and the male hormone testosterone. Both hormones are present in men, and breast growth can occur due to changes in the body's sensitivity to these hormones or fluctuations in their levels. Specifically, gynecomastia develops when oestrogen levels rise and testosterone levels fall.

Being overweight is another prevalent cause of gynecomastia. Excess body weight can increase oestrogen levels in men, promoting the growth of breast tissue. Additionally, overweight men may have more fat, leading to enlarged breasts.

It's not uncommon for newborn boys to experience some breast enlargement due to exposure to their mother’s oestrogen. Approximately 50% of newborn boys have breast buds, which usually resolve within two to six months.

During puberty, hormonal changes can lead to temporary breast enlargement in boys. If testosterone levels drop and oestrogen levels rise, it can result in breast tissue growth. Fortunately, this condition often resolves as boys grow and hormone levels stabilise.

As men age, testosterone production decreases and body fat tends to increase, leading to higher oestrogen levels and potentially causing gynecomastia.

Certain medications can also lead to hormonal imbalances that contribute to gynecomastia.

Different Grades Of Gynecomastia

grade-image

Grade I

This grade indicates a slight degree of breast enlargement, with a small button of tissue developing around the areola. There is minimal swelling, and it’s not noticeable when dressed.

grade-image

Grade II

At this level, breast tissue expands to fill the width of the chest. While the breast tissues may nearly cover the pectoral muscles, the edges remain somewhat indistinct.

grade-image

Grade III

At this moderate stage, breast tissue is visibly noticeable through clothing, with increased firmness and noticeable extra skin.

grade-image

Grade IV

This is the most severe stage of breast development, where significant extra skin interferes with daily activities, indicating that breast growth is nearly complete.

Our Experts Explain

What happens when Gynecomastia is left untreated

questioning-img

If left untreated, gynecomastia can negatively impact both physical and mental health. It may not resolve on its own, and seeking cosmetic surgery can provide emotional and social benefits, especially if concerns about appearance affect self-esteem and confidence.

Physical Discomfort: The ongoing growth of breast tissue can place strain on back muscles, potentially leading to chronic back pain.
Posture Issues: Continuous pressure from enlarged breast tissue can result in spinal deformities and abnormal posture, affecting how one sits or stands.
Mental Health Consequences: Many men may experience self-consciousness regarding their appearance, leading to depression and social anxiety. Addressing gynecomastia can significantly improve overall well-being and quality of life.

Benefits of Gynecomastia Surgery

Recommendations after gynecomastia surgery

In some instances, particularly in younger individuals, swollen breasts may resolve on their own as hormonal levels stabilise. However, if the condition persists into adulthood, surgery, also known as gynecomastia or male breast reduction surgery, may be the only effective treatment. Historically, open gynecomastia surgery was the only method for removing fatty tissue, but this approach involved significant risks due to invasive techniques. Today, modern gynecomastia surgeons in Kolkata often prefer one or a combination of the following methods

Liposuction: This advanced procedure involves inserting a thin needle (cannula) through a small incision near the nipple-areolar complex to suction out fat. Various techniques can be employed, such as laser or Vaser liposuction, which combines traditional liposuction with ultrasound.
Gland Excision: This method involves making a small incision around the areolar region of the nipple with a scalpel to remove fatty tissues. After surgery, the incision is closed and typically heals within two to three days. Gland excision is generally preferred when fatty tissues have developed into glands that cannot be effectively broken down and suctioned away.

Gynecomastia, characterised by swollen breast tissue in men, can significantly impact self-esteem and confidence. Many individuals find that exercise does little to alleviate this condition. According to a gynecomastia surgeon in Kolkata, surgery is often the most effective solution for achieving a well-defined male physique. Here are some clear benefits of gynecomastia surgery Self-Enhancement: Gynecomastia can lead to various psychological effects, including depression stemming from mental trauma related to body image. Surgery can reshape the chest, significantly boosting confidence and improving overall self-image. Reduced Back Discomfort: The additional weight from enlarged breasts can exert pressure on back muscles, leading to chronic pain. As the condition worsens, it may even result in spinal deformities. By treating gynecomastia, patients often experience relief from back pain and a lower risk of spinal complications. Increased Clothing Options: Many individuals with gynecomastia avoid shopping due to fitting issues, resulting in limited clothing choices. Post-surgery, patients can comfortably wear a wider range of clothes, enhancing their overall comfort and style. Quick Recovery Time: Advanced surgical techniques, particularly laser surgery, expedite the healing process. Patients typically require only one day of recovery before they can resume daily activities. Although some bruising and swelling may occur initially, pain is usually minimal, allowing a return to regular routines shortly after surgery.

Immediate Recovery: Daily activities can often be resumed the day after surgery, with desk jobs returning to normal within three days.
Light Exercise: After one week, patients may start light cardio and exercises that do not engage the chest muscles, helping maintain fitness levels.
Strenuous Activities: Most patients can return to weightlifting and more intense workouts after two weeks, following a consultation with their gynecomastia surgeon.
Full Recovery: By six to eight weeks post-surgery, patients generally feel back to their normal selves and can resume most activities.

To ensure a safe recovery and minimise complications, it is essential to follow the post-operative recommendations provided by your surgeon. Comprehensive care before and after surgery includes guidance on diet, activities, exercises, and medications. Here are some key postoperative tips

Rest Period: Take one to two days off before returning to work and normal activities.
Avoid Strenuous Activities: Refrain from activities that could raise blood pressure for the first 14 days following surgery.
Gradual Resumption of Activities: Wait two weeks before starting cardio and lower body workouts.
Upper Body Exercises: Resume upper body and chest workouts only after one month unless otherwise directed by your gynecomastia doctor.

By adhering to these guidelines and maintaining communication with your healthcare provider, you can optimise your recovery and enjoy the full benefits of gynecomastia surgery.

I was advised by my physician for a circumcision for hygienic reasons as well as certain urinary problems. I found out about Mykare Health from Instagram and at first I was a bit sceptical about approaching them as I have never before availed such consultancy services, especially for a medical purpose. Anyway, with a lot of reservations in mind, I decided to take the help of Mykare Health Team. From day one including scheduling the surgery, processing the insurance related paperworks, doctor's appointments etc to the day I got discharged, as well as the follow-up medical checkups later, I have to say the whole experience was totally overwhelming. Mykare representative Ms. Greashma did a commendable job in walking me through the entire journey and, at times, she even went above and beyond her call of duty to address our concerns in a very professional manner and thankfully the entire process was smooth and hassle-free, thanks to her unwavering commitment to the task at hand. Thank you Mykare Health Team for the amazing experience. Keep this going. Kudos. 👍
