It is normal but: Gynecomastia in teenagers is most often physiological due to release of some female hormone like estrogen along with the male hormone Testostrone.Mild Gynecomastia gets better as you go through puberty in most cases and does not need any therapy,It is especially more common in chubby or fat kids.There is nothing you can do.In cases where it gets worse and remains only treatment is mastectomy
