Question 1

can tamoxifen help me get rid of my gynecomastia?

Accepted Answer

Great idea: But i wouldn't want to try it outside of a clinical trial.

Question 2

can you use nolvadex (tamoxifen) to get rid of gynecomastia?

Accepted Answer

Yes.: Although tamoxifen is not fda-approved for this use, multiple studies have been published demonstrating it's benefit treating gynecomastia.  It is probably most beneficial early in the development of the disease. If no effect is seen after three months, continuing the drug further is probably not helpful.

Question 3

can someone tell me how to get rid of my gynecomastia?

Accepted Answer

Time for a visit: First the reason for the problem should be sorted out.Some medications or medical problems can lead to this process and treatment  may depend on the findings.If no treatable issues are involved, a cosmetic surgeon can remove any residual glandular tissue and or do liposuction to remove fat.

Question 4

how can i get rid of my gynecomastia taking any herbal medication?

Accepted Answer

No Such Thing: There are no readily available herbal methods of eliminating or reducing gynecomastia other than losing weight for the fatty component. The glandular component will require resection.

Question 5

can aromatase inhibitor help me get rid of gynecomastia?

Accepted Answer

No: No unlikely to help.

Question 6

will an aromatase inhibitor help me get rid of my male gynecomastia?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: It is being studied in adolescent males but is far from the standard of care. Anastrozole, in one study, reduced breast size by over 50% as compared to placebo.  [for the other docs - I have to admit this was new to me:  see j clin endocrinol metab  2009; 94:2975.].

Question 7

can dim /di-indole-methane/ supplement that balances estrogen levels, help get rid of gynecomastia ?

Accepted Answer

Balancing estrogen?: Maybe. There's no good studies ; little theory; it's targeted for bodybuilders abusing steroids. You're an adult now. You're also taking prednisone, which i must suppose is prescribed by a physician for something really serious. Your life is too difficult already for you to be called "the guy with the __s".  You owe it to yourself to have definitive treatment, which is office surgery.

Question 8

how can i  get rid of gynecomastia naturally?

Accepted Answer

Avoid manipulation: Mild cases can be treated by just not manipulating the breast at all.  Even occasional manipulation can prevent the tissue from going back down to a normal size.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Question 10

what are good ways to get rid of gynecomastia help please!?

Accepted Answer

Usually surgery: Although weight loss can help if it's related to being overweight, typically surgery is needed.  The procedure that is done usually involves some liposuction of the chest area, removal of the thick glandular tissue, and sometimes, some procedure to tighten up stretched out skin.  See your local plastic surgeon.
