I recently had a sudden onset of breast enlargement/gyno. And I do mean, sudden, like almost overnight. Breasts larger, feels blubbery, but with that horrible breast cone shape... Nipples mostly puffy, but they don't hurt, and no discharge. I've had blood tests, and everything came back normal, so the doctor won't do anything. The doc said it might go away on its own, or it might not. I've seen people post here about the same thing. Well, what kind of time frame are we talking about? How long should I wait before booking an appointment with a plastic surgeon? Doctors don't seem to have any answers for these questions, but it seems from past threads that some of you have had it go away over time as well. Also, are there any supplements which help it go away? My case isn't really that severe (knock on wood). Oh, and the strongest thing I've ever taken is Androstenedione, and that was well over a year ago.    | ||

it doesn't. You will need surgery if it gets worse. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short  | ||

That's strange. I've heard of Andro causing Gyno, but a year later?! If you are young that could be one of the reasons. Some people just naturally get it. Especially in that critically puberty to 21 range. All I can say is stay on your Doc Bro. Good luck. ------------------ | ||

A lot of people think they have Gyno when they don't. If you don't have itchy nipps, sensitive nips, and a lump directly underneath the nipple, then you don't have Gyno. Drop the BF% down and it will clear up. Gyno is very painful, and you'll know when you have it, there won't be a maybe... | ||

if you do have a little bit of true gyno, you may want to try some armidex before going under the knife---i had a mild case of it in the middle of an anadrol/test cyp cycle and the armidex actually shrank the existing gyno. just my two cents. | ||

well you can try arimidex and see what happens. BTW, how old are you? I ask this because some people get gyno in their teen ages and then as they grow up it just disappears. Anyways, good luck. | ||

I am 31. It is really whacked how this just came on out of nowhere. The doctor really has no explanation since it is idiopathic (no known cause). He suggested maybe rowing type exercises. I've read from some people that just makes it worse and even more prominent. I am now fairly obsessed with this damn thing, looking at some downright frightening photos on the 'net of guys who are lugging a pair of Dolly Parton-like jugs. I now find myself "sizing up" other guys, looking at their chests for bitch tits. Spent a hefty chunk of change on new clothes - baggy button shirts... polo and t-shirts are bye bye... Believe me, this isn't something any of you want. [This message has been edited by Livic (edited April 22, 2001).] |
