Puffy Nipples Suck!! (so I saw my doc)

[dr_skier]

As many of you have, I have puffy Nips. They look fantastic cold, and dont look terrible otherwise but I wish they weren't there. They are not from crank, they are from when I was an OBESE teenager, leftover prepub gyno. At least i think it's gyno, there was no point it ever hurt, could just be stubberon a2 receptors in the tissue. In anycase i'm on a huge cutting spree for all now trying to bring myself down to 7-8% (at about 12, down from 14) In weight terms im looking for 235-240, i'm currently 255, i was 273(bit bloated too). And i'm 6'4".

I went to the doc today and he said he's seen slight deposits like this before and he's refeering me to a specialist, who i have an appointment with now in early april. So what do you think they'll do? cut them out? My family doctor seemed to think that it would be a decently small procedure with little recovery time and that if it is gyno, it's covered by medical (canada). Any input here folks? should I ask the specialist if i could get the whole gland removed? FYI the gyno from being a teenager never got bigger or anything while on cycle at all. Even when I didn't take an AI, sore nipples never existed. Thanks all!

I would say, if you can live without the surgery then dont' get it. but if you can't well at least your not paying for it, right?

I had gyno as a left over from puberty and I got surgery done - it was the best damn thing I ever did. Make sure they remove the glands if they give you the surgery. Some guys go in and only have lipo done. The glands are the #1 thing you need to get removed.

If I had to go and do it all over again I would have. You will be out of the gym for a while (depending on how much tissue they remove). I had lipo and glands memoved = 4-6 week recovery period.

 

[dr_skier]

Is there anyone else out there who's had this done? Is there anyway to preserve the muscle for the recovery time? (500mg/test per week lol)

 

[LT3]

so let me get this straight. in Canada, this is free, even if you walk in and the doctor knows u use gear?

 

[scout69]

Sometimes they may use surgery, but if the situation is'nt serious they'll probably prescribe something to help..You will be fine..You did the right thing about going to the Doctor, Alpt of guys will weight to long and than they have no choice but to get surgery...

 

[justinjones1963]

Depending on the makeup of your body, the surgery could be very simple and invasive. I shoul dhave mentioned that they removed a chit load of tissue from me. If they go in only to remove the gland it is a small incision under the areola of the nipple. They go in and cut out the glands and then stitch you up. Recovery would be much quicker.

on the other hand if you have a lot of tissue, like I did (enough to fill a can of soda) recovery will be longer.

Your doc will give you the scoop.

 

[dr_skier]

Yeah i hope i dont have that much tissue. It's not as easy as hey i got gyno from gear take it out and bill the gov. This has been an issue for me since i was 15 at least. Puffy nipples and that little deposit under them. As a fat teenager they were HELL, now as my bodyfat is much lower and i've been using gear and lifting hard, and the rest of my body looks good, the puffy nips really dont stand out that bad. I'm still checked out on the beach and i'm sure to the general public they have no clue. This is much more a personal self concious thing. But as i said i'm probably like 12% now, hope to be 8% soon, hopefully it'll look better than. But seeing the doc and finding out what can be done and what kind of surgery is required is a good bet in my books.

 

[SwolK]

dr skier, let me know what the doc says. sounds like same thing as me. just a little puffy and little deposits under nips ever since I was a teen. When my bf is low I am really the only person that knows, but still the same I dont like it. good luck and please let us ,who seem to be in the same situation, know how it goes or what options he gives

 

[cboogsrun]

I hate my crank nipples. Maybe I should go see a doc. How do you get crank nipples? Is this canadian terminology or is meth? I've never heard meth will give you gyno.

Would you say you are holding about a "d" cup right now?

 

[dr_skier]

Oh i'm thinking a C at least ok ok, crank nipples, I said they are not from crank, crank being just slang for steroids. Crank is not meth. i dont even know any slang for meth. Did you think i was talking about meth? LOL must just be canadian terminolgy!

And scout what would they prescribe? i mean nolva has never made a differnce, nor should it if it's gyno that's been there for 7 years.

 

[JohnRambo]

Your gyno; is it "bumps" or just fat? Is it still there when your lean? Personaly I look like Im suffering of gyno of season, but as the fatprocentage lowers my nipples get firm and nice again.

 

[biggersbetter]

I've never had any issue with gyno...lots of cycles and now on for good. But in the eighties I had my nipples pierced and the scar tissue made them appear bigger. If I take the rings out then they still look bigger, so I just keep 'em in. If people are looking at' em on the beach, then so what? As long as I like the look, that's what counts. Do what makes you feel good about your body...as you say, most people poboably don't even notice.

Dr_skier: In the US the only thing that I've ever heard the slang "crank" refer to is Methaphetamine. I wouldn't use that term on a US board.
I am in the same boat as you, I was very fat through my teen years up until about 21, when the lack of girlfriends and energy made me get off my ass and get in the gym. Unfortunately, no matter how lean I get I have puffy nips. It sucks to do a full-scale, torturous, expensive cycle and look in the mirror to see Madonna-like nips pointing at me. I say- If it is going to make you happier inside and more confident, the risk is pretty low and I wouldn't hesitate to do it. I plan on getting it done myself, as soon as I get the $$ together and can get the time off of work.
As far as the 500mg a /wk thing, I would highly recommend NOT being on while going under general anesthesia. That seems self-evident to me.

 

[thewanderer690]

how much this shit cost in the US? I heard it was like 5k. I do know here though you can get lyposuction for like 150 bucks they have coupons for it in the paper.

Got to love Canada... My wife is from there. Free healthcare for everyone. Her dad's been in the hospital for 3 weeks for heart problems. He walked out without owing a dime. Sure they have high sales tax, but I'd be willing to pay that shit down here if they would offer something like that...

Essentially they work from January through July just to pay taxes.

It's not a small procedure if you have surgery. If I were you, I would try to get rid of the site yourself using some letro (femara) + nolvadex, as personal experience with surgery has taught me it's not always the best way to go. Also, they don't remove the gland - most gyno surgeries just deal with the symptom (the lump) not the cause.

 

[dr_skier]

Well as I said i'm in my cutting phase now (which is going great! 254 today down from 275!!!). I hope to hit 240-245 in a month and by mid april be at 235. I'll gauge my progress then and see what the specialist has to say. You're right though, perhaps with a sub 9% bf it just wont be a deal at all, i've never really been sub 13-14 before though. Mr.X, now with the nolvadex and ferma route, what doses and what part of my cycle? Or would it be ok do to this post cycle sometime, like post pct?

 

[justinjones1963]

Just to add in to all of this...if you decide to get the surgery make sure you are NOT on cycle. Especially running something like clen. Your body needs to be as clean as possible when undergoing surgery. If I remember correctly I was told not to even take asprin three weeks before going under the knife.

 

[dr_skier]

I will heed your advice.
