Puberty Gyno

[jeter557629]

"The best advice is: Don't worry about it. It happens to a lot of people including me. In my case it didn't go away but it hasn't bothered me anymore than the acne I experienced around the same time (as a matter of fact I would have picked it over the acne anyday)."


DO worry about it...Puberty Gyno is genetic and hormonal..all the cardio and dieting in the world WILL NOT get rid of it...for those of you who had some puffiness and growth that went away you did not have full fledged Gyno. Not sure what you had, probably some hormonal imbalance while going through puberty that corrected itself. Having gone through this myself I would strongly suggest consulting a plastic sugeon that specializes in Gyno removal surgery. I used a Dr. Nadler, very popular here in NY when I was 22. Unfortunelty I lived with it from the time I was 13. Not sure what the recommended age to have the procedure done is. Under 15 is probably too soon. 17-18 might be a better time and it will also give you time to evaluate whether or not it is full fledged Gyno or a temporary chemical imbalance.

Jeter I don't know if your agreeing with me or disagreeing but the point is I STILL have the lumps and there is no reason in hell for me to have ever gotten them taken out. I went to a doctor and he said its common. If it gets out of hand then of course you may need some common sense to figure out what to do next.

I've got em too

Dude I got a pair of those shits growing on my chest too, and its fucking more embarassing than a limp dick at a gangbang. One of them is hard and there year round. The other seems to come and go at odd times. The permanent one is hard with a bunch of fat over it, the other one is usually just fat but gets hard once in a while. I had em since I was 13 or 14. No amount of diet has done shit for em. Any of you guys think that perhaps I can get my medical insurance to cover removal. They hurt sometimes and breast cancer is a big problem in my family (though not usually in the men, we all die of other cancer sooner). My mom has lumps in her breasts (or so she tells me when I'm trying to fucking eat breakfast), and my grandma had full blown cancer as did her mother and two of her sisters. What do you think? DO I have a shot at removal on the company dollar? If not will the fact I have to work with mild estrogens (Clobetasol Propionate and others) from time to time count as an excuse to write it off? I havent juiced in like 2 years as of next month so I wanted to get this looked at while I'm clean. Thanks for opinions.

Oh and Specster, good luck with yer kid. Hopefully he wont have to go through all the teasing and bullshit I did about it growing up. If you dont tell him it's gyno he might not be self concious of it for some time, so if you havent pointed it out yet, then dont. Goodluck
