Gynecomastia refers to a condition that occurs in males as a result of over-development of the breast tissue. It is estimated that 60% of males in the world have this condition.
It is mainly caused by an imbalance of the main sex hormones namely estrogen and testosterone. The effect is seen in both breasts and the severity can be uneven.
The main Gynecomastia symptoms include the growth of a small lump underneath the nipple commonly associated with some pain. Once the symptoms manifest, it is advisable to consult a physician for purposes of carrying out a medical diagnosis.
A common scenario is that it occurs across all ages in males but sometimes it resolves itself over time. During instances of hormonal change such as infancy, the adolescence stage and old age, it is likely for this condition to arise.
The increase in estrogen at the expense of androgens marks the onset of this condition. Another cause is the use of anabolic steroids. Anabolic steroids are mainly used by body builders who aim at enhancing their muscles.
Consuming an excessive amount of the steroids overwhelm the body hence a great proportion is not utilized and as a consequence the development of bigger breasts in men.
Some of the testosterone that was not utilized is sometimes converted to estrogen bringing out the same result. Genetics is another possible cause. A person's family history related to the condition often leads to development of the large breast size.
Other causes may include the use of marijuana, liver diseases, treatment of cancer, effect of medications and kidney failure.
There are psychological implications that arise among the people affected by this condition. Cases of low self esteem and confidence are a common phenomenon.
The large breast in men and puffy nipples make the affected to look for clothes which are baggy in order to hide or cover up the man boobs.
When wind blows towards their direction, they try as much to cover the breast area with their hands. Situations where a person undresses such as in swimming pools, people with gynecomastia symptoms are often shy to take their clothes off.
The signs of Gynecomastia
The usual signs that are associated with gynecomastia are lumps under the nipple area, the breast developing in an abnormal way and also the breasts becoming tender. In chronic conditions, the affected normally experience pain, various degrees of skin ulceration and sometimes nipple discharge may be experienced.
This condition is seen as early as in neonates and in most cases it disappears as the child grows. The enlargement of the disk shaped glandular tissue just beneath the nipple may be felt by hand. Disturbance of this area often leads to itching due to discomfort.
The sensitivity of the breast area often varies in most men with some experiencing mild soreness and others severe and unbearable pain. It should be noted that not all affected men experience the same symptoms.
Pseudogynecomastia
This is the condition whereby fat tissue develops abnormally in the breast areas of men. It highly resembles real gynecomastia and the only difference is that it is not related to any medical condition.
The main cause is as a result of a person being overweight. The deposition of excess fat in the adipose tissue of the breast area is as a result of lack of proper diet and to some extent failure to exercise regularly. The composition of the adipose is soft or hard fat.
The soft fat can be removed by carrying out liposuction unlike the hard fat. This fat tissue may spread to the arm pits and back.
Gynecomastia Treatment
The mode of treatment is mainly determined by age, severity of the condition and the preference of the affected person. Surgery is often used to correct the condition whereby it removes the excess fat tissue.
Anesthesia is mostly used to facilitate the surgery. Marks are normally made to indicate the affected areas for subsequent removal.
Gynecomastia Surgery
There are two types of surgery. Suction Lipectomy involves the incision of the breast area in order to carry out liposuction. A newer approach is the endoscopic surgery which uses a camera to monitor the breast area before carrying out incision.
One should take the initiative of monitoring gynecomastia symptoms in their body in order to seek professional help when this condition manifests itself.
