hey /fit/

i think i have gynocomastia. i've had puffy nipples since puberty. so i did my research and heard taking letrozole can reverse the effect and prevent it from happening.

anybody have any experience with this condition?

I'll get back to you when I've lost enough weight to merit calling my manboobs part of some sort of condition.

a drug will not improve it over the long term. as embarrassing as it is, you need a boob job. me and a friend of mine both had gynocomastia and a plastic surgeon removed the excess breast fat in an easy operation. Its normal.

You're all idiots. Real gynecomastia is pretty rare. Get under 12% body fat and then see what happens.

Fucking 99% of these "bawww gynecomastia" cases are just to due to having too much fucking body fat (PROTIP: high body fat increases estrogen production in both genders, which often causes gynecomastia in males, which GOES AWAY WHEN YOU LOSE WEIGHT).

I got down to 13% bodyfat and I still had nasty ass bitch tits.

but I also had tons of extra skin from when I was a fatass (40% bodyfat)

I think you just miscalculated your body fat by attempting to do it yourself with some cheap calipers you bought in the store. You probably did it way wrong.

If you have flabby body parts, it's cause they're still fat. If you had "extra skin" it would be literally paper thin, skin is like .5 millimeter thick. Unless you have paper thin skin flaps to show me, the real answer was that you still had high body fat and lacked muscle.

well i used a 1700$ machine that tested it by stepping on metal contact points.

but yeah in hindsight I still had lots of fat. I could FEEL it. I understand that fatless skin is like eyelid thin.

speaks truth

also, run PCT/anti-aromatase next time you do an all androgenic cycle....

"Real" gynecomastia is hard. Punch under your nip nips and if you feel lumps/hard discs, abnormally large ones especially then it's gyno.

sad that even a 1700 dollar machine will never be as accurate as 5 dollar callipers

Look into Clomid or Nolvadex

letro would work better for him than clomid or nolvadex but will probably work the best is raloxifene - the others work well for immediate gyno but ralox works well on previous/long term gyno

Thanks doc.

good to know thanks, that makes sense, Nolva and Clomid are typically used as post cycle therapy when coming off a steroid cycle. My bad.

you should also see what you respond to best - ralox has been known to get rid of pubertal gyno but if you find no results coming from it, taper off, take a few months off and then try again with letrozole

gynecomastia not gynocomastia
