What is gynecomastia?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gynecomastia is the name given to cosmetic surgeries performed to treat breast enlargement in men. This condition can sometimes affect only one breast, and sometimes both. Appearing as an enlargement and deformation of the tissues in the breast area at any age, this problem negatively impacts men psychologically, especially during the summer months, and restricts their social lives.<\/p>\n

Why and How Does Gynecomastia Occur?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gynecomastia is generally caused by several factors. The main ones are as follows:<\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  • Hormonal imbalances,<\/li>\n
  • Low testosterone levels.<\/li>\n
  • An increase in the hormone estrogen,<\/li>\n
  • Drug use,<\/li>\n
  • Antidepressants,<\/li>\n
  • Supplements that aid in bodybuilding,<\/li>\n
  • Alcohol consumption,<\/li>\n
  • Testicular tumors,<\/li>\n
  • Adrenal gland tumors,<\/li>\n
  • Unhealthy eating habits and constant weight fluctuations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    What are the symptoms of gynecomastia?<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Breast tenderness,<\/li>\n
    • Swelling in the breast tissue,<\/li>\n
    • Pain or tenderness in the breasts,<\/li>\n
    • Nipple discharge from one or both breasts,<\/li>\n
    • One breast being larger than the other,<\/li>\n
    • A feeling of a lump under the nipple,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      A definitive diagnosis of gynecomastia requires an examination by a specialist in aesthetic, plastic, and reconstructive surgery, as well as mammography and blood tests.<\/p>\n
