For men struggling with unwanted breast tissue, Dr. Lloyd Krieger offers expert gynecomastia (male breast reduction) treatments designed to restore a masculine chest contour and renewed self-confidence.
Understanding Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is a condition marked by the development of excess breast tissue in men, often leading to embarrassment and self-consciousness. It typically results from hormonal imbalances—specifically, elevated estrogen relative to testosterone—causing glandular growth beneath the chest. This condition can affect posture, social comfort, and emotional well-being. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
Common Causes & Risk Factors
- Hormonal changes during puberty or with aging
- Certain medical conditions (e.g., liver, kidney, thyroid disorders; testicular tumors)
- Medications, including antidepressants, antibiotics, or anabolic steroids
- Substance use—alcohol or recreational drugs
- Obesity or rapid weight gain
Identifying the underlying cause is key to customizing treatment. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
