Doctor can evaluate: An adolescent medicine, pediatric endocrinology, or adult endocrinology doctor can evaluate to see what the problem is, how severe it is, and how temporary or how permanent it appears to be. Some doctors might be trying hormonal therapy, so one has to ask the doctor about the options, after being evaluated.

Depends on the situa: Pubertal gynecomastia will occur in 1/3 to 1/2 of males & generally last about a year before fading.Up to 3 years is noted occasionally before disappearing. Overweight kids can appear to have it from just fat accumulation.If present after 3 years, surgical removal of the glandular tissue & liposuction of any associated fatty tissue will do the job.
