Advanced Medical Treatment For Gynecomastia in Hyderabad
Gynecomastia is a condition of overdevelopment or enlargement of the breast tissue in men or boys. The breasts become larger. They may grow unevenly. Gynecomastia often happens when a preteen or teenage boy is going through the hormonal changes of puberty. Male breast tissue swells due to reduced male hormones (testosterone) or increased female hormones (estrogen). Causes include puberty, aging, medication, and health conditions that affect hormones.

Treatment
Treatment depends on the severity
Treatment may not be required in some cases. In other cases, treatment focuses on managing the underlying condition. Rarely, medical or surgical treatment is necessary.
If the gynecomastia is severe, does not resolve, is of recent onset (less than 6 months), and does not have a treatable underlying cause, some medical therapies may be attempted.
There are 3 classes of medical treatment for gynecomastia: androgens (testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, danazol), anti-estrogens (clomiphene citrate, tamoxifen), and aromatase inhibitors such as letrozole and anastrozole. Some medical therapies may be tried if the gynecomastia is severe, persistent, recent (less than 6 months), and does not have a treatable fundamental cause.
Surgical Treatment
Gynecomastia surgical treatment is necessary when medical treatment is ineffective, especially in situations of persistent gynecomastia, when the condition interferes with the patient’s everyday activities, or when there is a possibility that the breasts may be cancerous.
On the other hand, to reduce the risk of post-operative recurring gynecomastia, surgical treatment for pubertal gynecomastia should be delayed, preferably until after the end of adolescence. Additionally, surgery should be postponed until the main cause of gynecomastia has been treated or fixed.
