Causes of Gynecomastia

Mostly, enlarged bre-asts in men are an outcome of reduced test-osterone hormone and increased estr-ogen hormone. This hormonal change is typically seen in adolescent males and mid-aged males having andropause as well as male infants who are bre-astfed.
 
Furthermore, side effects of certain medications like steroids and am-phetamines and health conditions like cirrhosis, tes-ticular tumors, chronic kidney failure, and hyperthyroidism also cause gynecomastia.

Diagnosis of Gynecomastia

For an evaluation of gynecomastia, the bre-ast size is measured and the personal/family medical history of the patient is reviewed. To confirm gynecomastia diagnosis and identify the underlying cause of gynecomastia, blood tests are done to check for hormone levels, and a mammogram or imaging technique is used to examine the bre-ast for any unusual growth. If needed, a biopsy is performed to rule out tumor/cancer possibility. As per the cause and grade of gynecomastia, a gynecomastia treatment plan is created.
