What charity can help me with my Gynecomastia or self image problem?


I have Gynecomastia, it is a condition of large female like breasts on a male body. This is not caused by excessive weight in my case as I weight 165 lbs and am 6 ft tall..the weight problem one is callsed Psudo-Gynecomastia because it isn't really gynecomastia. I was wondering who I can get help from to have surgery or help my self image. I don't get involved in social activity or have a job because I used to be teased in school all the time which caused me to go into hiding for years. I am 24 now still living at home and can't find anyone to help me, I don't know what to do. I tried to force myself to get over it but I can't, I did wear an ace bandage to compress them flat and that gave me a large confidence boost but those are so uncomfortable to wrap around me. I just wish to look like a normal male, any ideas?

I Know certain conditions or drug use can cause this, I have never taken drugs and I am not sure if I have a bad liver or hyper thyroid but this is what I am wondering, what charity can help me as I do not have money.

maybe u take certain drug which causing this problem...from what i know some drug can give this condition your having...u should check your hormones level for testosterone and estrogen with doctor...

Well Im not sure about charity but most plastic surgeons will fix it for you. Depending on how nuch excess tissue you have, they may be able to just do a little liposuction. Or make a small incision around the nipple and remove the tisse. Its genaraly a small procedure and you can go home the same day and have just a small amount of pain or discomfort. And the results can be almost instant. Look into talking to a plastic surgeon about details if it is truly bothering you that much.I don't know if it could possibly be covered by your insurance so just be prepared to hear that you may have to pay for it. Good luck.
