Is there a way to get rid of gynecomastia without taking any herbal medications supplements or having surgery?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not really. Except--: If the gynecomastia is fatty and weight-related rather than true glandular gynecomastia, then weight loss will reduce the size of the male chest. Most patients have a combination of fatty and glandular gynecomastia, and weight loss will help only part of the problem--surgery is necessary to remove the glandular component.

No: If you are normal weight it won't go away.
