I’m a man of 26 and I have large breasts, almost like a woman. Can I do anything about it?

Gynaecomastia is a common condition of guys in their teens. Normally the breast enlargement disappears after a few months to 2 years. But in exceptional cases this does not happen. Breast-reduction surgery can help. The surgeon can remove fat by liposuction or remove glandular tissue by excision or use a combination. When you are obese is probably better first to try to get rid of the problem by weight loss and exercise. Enlarged breast tissue with men can also be caused by smoking marijuana or/and the use of anabolic steroids. Stopping its use may reverse the breast enlargement. But if you have a normal posture and don’t use drugs surgery is an option. As with any surgery there are risks. Sometimes the procedure results in scar tissue, permanent pigment changes or mismatched breasts and nipples. But in general complications are infrequent and usually minor if it is done by a competent surgeon.
