Treatment for male breast enlargement

Male breast enlargement is a big problem that troubles our male friends. Many female friends pursue better and better breasts, but male friends are different.

Treatment:

1. Etiology treatment

The cause of this disease is complex. A correct diagnosis is made and then treatment is carried out according to the cause. Primary male breast hypertrophy in adolescence often tends to heal on its own and can return to normal within about 6 months. Primary male breast hypertrophy in adults and the elderly can partially heal on their own, while others require medication. As for secondary male breast hypertrophy, after a clear diagnosis, treatment is carried out according to its cause. When the primary lesion is cured, the enlarged breasts can often gradually recover.

2. Drug treatment

(1) Selective estrogen receptor antagonists such as tamoxifen.

(2) Androgen therapy can reduce breast development in patients with androgen deficiency, but it is not recommended for patients with normal androgen levels because androgens are often converted into estrogen in the body and aggravate breast development.

(3) Aromatase inhibitors such as testosterone can inhibit the aromatization of androgens in the body, thereby reducing the production of estrogen.

3.Surgery

In addition to etiological treatment and drug treatment, surgical treatment can be used to treat male breast hypertrophy.

(1) Indications: ① Male breasts with a diameter greater than 4 cm that cannot be reduced for a long time; ② Those whose breast enlargement significantly affects their appearance; ③ Those who have no significant effect after regular medication treatment; ④ Those who suspect that the disease has worsened and are psychologically nervous and uneasy.

(2) Surgical methods: ① Subcutaneous mastectomy (without nipple and areola preservation), suitable for young patients; ② Simple mastectomy (without nipple and areola preservation), mostly suitable for elderly patients. The specimen removed during surgery is sent for pathological biopsy for confirmation.
