No steroids: Steroids are not the answer. Gynecomastia can be caused by different reasons, but Anabolic steroids like testosterone can actually cause gynecomastia (breast enlargement in males). See your doctor to discuss the options.

See a doctor: Please get evaluated by a breast specialist. You will want to be sure this is truly gynecomastia and not a suspicious mass. Men can get breast cancer too! be safe and get checked out.

Gynecomastia. : In addition to the above answer: if it is found to be true gynecomastia, we treat non surgically with coolsculpting. We also perform minimally invasive vaser liposelection. In any case, see a breast specialist and endocrinologist for the appropriate diagnosis before attempting any treatment.
