A member asked:

Is there a reason other than weight that some fat men have larger breasts than others of the same weight?

Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Hormone imbalance: can foster additional breast tissue in men. This man can get his hormone levels tested by his doc. As we mature, the hormones of the opposite sex can begin to increase in us. Peace and good health.
