Gynecomastia

Gynecomstia, a condition that develops in males around puberty due to an increase in estrogen levels that causes the development of female breast tissue.

I've had it since I was 13. Is it very noticeable or does it pass as muscle?

    Lots of people think they have gyno when they really just have too much fat. Keep cutting and keep building muscle and, if you really do have gyno, that will be the best you can do aside from surgery.
  • I really do have gyno. I've seen a doctor about it. He said my only option is surgery.

    Yours is, from that a pic, an extremely minor case of gyno. It passes as muscle. Trust me, it can be WAY worse. If it really bugs you, $2k to $5k will have it easily removed. And you're in Florida, even easier for that sort of thing.

    But, I'd just wait, lean out a bit, and re-evaluate.

    I say no problem at all. I wouldn't have known you had any sort of diagnosis or needed one :) By looks, I mean. I believe you and everything ;)

    i have seen what you're describing but only in the obese sense. I think you look totally normal. I mean, idk you look like a fit guy to me. Maybe learn some self love? I think you look just fine.
  • I'm not too insecure about. I just hate that my nipples are bigger than my gf's. Pretty humiliating.

    Nah, hers must just be small! I didn't notice a thing.

    It's all in your head. Honestly you look great! In anycase all women have different sized nipples and when your g/f has kids.. if she does they will most likely end up a lot bigger.
