Gynecomastia is a common medical condition characterized by the abnormal enlargement of breast tissue in males. While it is generally harmless, it can cause discomfort and emotional distress for those who experience it. At Dr. Dangs Clinic, led by the experienced Dr. Shivam Dang, patients receive advanced and personalized care for gynecomastia, ensuring both effective treatment and compassionate support.
What is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is the development of enlarged breast tissue in males due to an imbalance between estrogen (female hormone) and testosterone (male hormone). This condition can affect one or both breasts and may appear at any age, from infancy to adulthood.
Causes of Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia can occur due to various factors, including:
- Hormonal Imbalance: A natural fluctuation of hormones during puberty or aging can trigger gynecomastia.
- Medications: Certain drugs, such as steroids, antidepressants, and anti-anxiety medications, may cause this condition.
- Health Conditions: Liver disease, kidney failure, hyperthyroidism, and certain tumors can lead to hormonal changes causing gynecomastia.
- Substance Use: Alcohol, recreational drugs (like marijuana), and anabolic steroids can increase the risk.
Symptoms of Gynecomastia
Patients with gynecomastia may experience:
- Enlarged breast tissue in one or both breasts
