Gynecomastia is the abnormal enlargement of breast tissue in men. This usually begins at the time of puberty and affects 10% of teenage boys. Some of these will resolve by themselve, but if it persists for over 2 years, it will not go away spontaneously. Studies have shown that in the vast majority of cases there is no hormone imbalence or other diesease process happening. This is something that can run in families (hereditary) or you may be the only one in your family to have it.
Gynecomastia has been shown to cause great anxiety and even depression in boys and men who suffer from this. At the very least they find it embarrassing to take off their shirt at the gym, the pool, or for sports. Many refrain from these activities altogether and can even become socially withdrawn. Fortunately, we have a procedure that permanently cures this condition in about one hour. This is done as an outpatient and requires only a few days recovery time. Please call us for details at (614) 326-4661.
