Gynecomastia is a clinical condition in which men have enlarged breasts like a woman and the development of benign excessive breast tissues occurs. It is categorized under endocrine system disorder in which a non-cancerous increase in the size of male breast tissue occurs. Gynecomastia or man boobs can occur at any age, which may be a result of hormonal changes, heredity, obesity, or the use of certain medications.

DEFINITION:

Gynecomastia is a medical condition, meaning male breast enlargement which needs surgical attention. Gynecomastia surgery reduces breast size in men, flattening and enhancing the chest contour, which is acceptable for a masculine body figure. Scientifically, it is also known as reduction mammoplasty in which the areola (the dark skin surrounding the nipple) and the nipple are repositioned, along with reducing the excess skin, if the male has an excess sagging chest.
In severe cases of gynecomastia, breast sagging can also appear due to the weight of enlarged and excess breast tissues results in stretching of the areola. This condition demands surgical attention and that is why Gynecomastia surgery is performed to correct the shape, size, and contour of the male breast.
Gynecomastia is common and occurs at any age in men, which is associated with benign pubertal changes. However, in most of the cases, the pubertal gynecomastia is resolved within two years of onset without treatment. In rare cases, gynecomastia has known to be occurring in association with certain disease states.
About 70% of adolescent boys are victims of physiologic gynecomastia and newborns at birth often have temporary gynecomastia due to the influence of maternal hormone.
