A member asked:

What if i quit wellbutrin (bupropion) sr cold turkey after only 5 weeks, will i have bad withdrawals?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No, it : Means you might have gynecomastia. One of the causes of bilateral gynecomastia is a hormone producing testicular tumor, but other causes are much more likely. Consult a doctor for specific advice.
