Gynecomastia is enlargement or swelling of breast tissue in men, which can be unilateral or bilateral. Some of them in infancy, puberty and old age can be physiological or normal, and in some cases, the cause is pathological or disease, the cause of which is mostly the imbalance of estrogen and testosterone hormones. Medications can also cause gynecomastia. Hormonal causes are treated by an endocrinologist, but other cases usually do not require treatment unless it causes the person to move away from society and the patient’s anxiety and depression to attend public places such as swimming pools. Gynecomastia is the swelling of the glandular tissue of the breast, and it is not the accumulation of fat alone, and based on its cause and severity, surgical treatments such as liposuction, open surgery, and the removal of glandular tissue and fat without removing excess skin.
