   It has been 1 year since a natural occuring gyno operation, and i went to have a check up. The plastic surgion told me I have a little scar tissure under my left nipple, It does not hurt but I can feel a diffrence from the other side. He told me to come back in 2 months. He also told me that it might just take some time to heal. I guess my question would be do you think that armidex or nolvadex would help with the healing or anything like that. Thanx for your patients. IP: Logged |

I also had a similar situation... I am currently 18 years old, when I was 14 I had to have a gyno operation on my left side. Started noticing it when I was 13 and my right nipple swelled unbelievably in a years time. The doc's told me that it would eventually go away but when I started looking like a woman I figured it was time to have surgery. Now I am noticing breast tissue growing under my left nipple although not as fast as it did before, it seems to be staying the same size, its barely noticable. What could've caused my gyno at such an early age, and would taking a cycle of AS probably cause it to grow alot larger? If it has occured once naturally is it most likely going to get alot worse w/ AS? I would think so, but what are your opinions? IP: Logged |

Well the answer is easy I know why me and you got the gyno naturally it is from high test levals and I dont know about you but when I was 9-17 man I ate like shit, I was chunky. Now I am not but that is not important. Yes If you are prone to getting gyno it is problably going to get worse that is why you try to ballance your estrogen levals with clomid and if gyno appears then nolvadex is much stronger. Hope this helps you out bro.. IP: Logged |

Wishful thinking maybe, does that mean I should grow faster?? =) I was the same way dude, I ate terrible. Probably starting around the same time you said. I was in decent shape because I played little league sports up until I aged out.. maybe 12?? But then after that I didn't have much physical activity and what little I did wasn't enough to counteract the SHIT I ate. Im talking like whole bags of doritos watching a 30min tv show! =) I was a lard ass to say the least. But now i've cleaned the diet up alot so its cool. I just hope the gyno doesn't get alot worse when I start my first cycle of AS. Do you think if i went to the doc, he would prescribe me some clomid or nolva? If I could get it through the doc that would be cool as hell.. $5.00 co-pay on insurance for some clomid!! hell ya.. IP: Logged |

I got my first gyno operation in 1993.just last year did the numbness go away.you can barely see the scar now but damb that was 7 years ago.if your having problems with the other one you will need to go back under the knife.make sure that the Doctor knows to cut out the mammary gland (you would think he would do that but they don't always)I have to go again and get the same one done because he didn't cut out the gland.

Spunky and Hot Topic... I'm really interested in your experiences with this. Your situations sound just like mine. I was pretty chubby growing up, and even when I started to thin out, I had those damn puffy looking nipples. Honestly, its only been in the last few months that I've concluded that the puffiness is not just left over fat that I haven't lost yet, but gyno. I mean, I've busted my ass to where I'm finally starting to see some abs, but I can't walk around with my shirt off or even wear a tight shirt because of the gyno. Could you guys answer a couple of questions for me? First, how much did the surgery cost? Did your insurance help pay for it? Were you pleased with the results and how did you go about choosing a doctor to do the operation? What was post-op like? I mean, how long before the bruising and swelling went away and how long before you could get back in the gym? I'm really interested in this because I'm starting to think that if I ever want to have the body i'm going for, i'll need to get the surgery. Thanks for the info, guys. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Io cost was around 5000. no the insurance did not pay, they said it was elective surgery. I am very pleased with the results, except for my left pec a little numb and some scar tissue for the opperation I hope... To the other post texas he told me that he took all of the glandular tissue out. thank God. IP: Logged |

This stuff has been on my mind for awhile. I was over weight once and the rest came with alittle help. If its small enough can you take something to back it up or is once you've got it you got it? IP: Logged |
