Loading

Having a bold breast gives women a superior look, but if a man has an enlarged breast, it looks unseemly. Have you ever thought it was not just about a fat tissue in your chest? Does excess fat lower your confidence and let you worry about style and social gatherings? 

It is not just because a man is gaining weight or he does not take care of his body. Maybe he is suffering from this problem due to the imbalance of hormones, which is known as Gynecomastia. 

What is Gynecomastia?

It is essential to understand the disparity between fat and Gynecomastia. Sometimes, it is expected to have excess fat around your chest due to being overweight. However, there are many people who suffer from Gynecomastia. 

One needs to understand this ailment first before jumping into the treatment options.  It is an illness which can be prevalent in one’s body due to hormonal imbalances, the tissues present in the male breast become enlarged or swollen. It occurs when the testosterone levels become lower, or the estrogen levels are high. It does not happen at any particular time. It can happen at any age –whether you are a kid, an adult, or middle-aged. 

A simple self-test to know if you have Gynecomastia

If you are unsure about this problem, you can conduct a self-test at home easily.

  1. Place your fingers on your chest to feel the area around your nipples. If it is soft and squishy, it is just regular fat, but the place around your nipples feels firm or rubber-like; it could be a sign of Gynecomastia.
  2. Gently press around the nipple. Another indicator of Gynecomastia is the feeling of discomfort or tenderness. A few men complain of  slight pain and sensitivity in the chest while doing this test.
  3. Another method of checking Gynecomastia is to look at your nipple area. It can cause changes in the nipples. If your areolas are more noticeable or your nipples become more sensitive than usual, it could be Gynecomastia.
