Gynecomastia Surgery in India

Man boobs or male breast, also known as gynecomastia is a fairly common condition and experts say that more than 70 percent of men suffer from this condition sometime in their life. The reasons are mostly unknown- it can start at puberty because of hormonal changes, which is temporary or in older age when level of testosterone is falling and they are gaining weight. Lower testosterone increases the size of breast tissue and weight gain adds fatty tissue under the breasts. Other causes of man boobs or male breasts are excessive use of alcohol or marijuana, certain medications or a low testosterone or an overactive thyroid.

Whatever the cause of man boobs may be, they are often a cause of embarrassment to most of the men. They feel shy and embarrassed to wear fit clothes or T-shirts and some even shy away from swimming because of that. What can be solved by a simple procedure can be a source of real embarrassment for many a men.
