What is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is a condition in which there is an enlargement or overdevelopment of the breast tissue in boys or men. The condition may affect one or both male breasts.
All boys are born with a small quantity of breast tissue, although the development of breast tissue in men will not occur in the same way as in women.
Men make a male sex hormone known as testosterone, which helps in their sexual growth during puberty. But men also make a small quantity of female sex hormone, known as estrogen, which is responsible for sexual growth in women.
The balance of these two hormones may change when a boy undergoes puberty or when less testosterone is made due to aging. This could lead to high levels of estrogen compared to testosterone, causing swelling of the breast tissue. There could also be other causes of gynecomastia besides hormonal fluctuations.
The condition can also be seen in newborn male babies due to the passage of the estrogen hormone from the mother to the child. However, this condition is usually temporary and disappears within two to three weeks on its own.
Approximately half of the boys in their adolescent years and about two-thirds of men above the age of 50 tend to have gynecomastia of some degree.
Symptoms of Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia may affect one or both male breasts. The condition may begin as a lump or fatty tissue beneath the nipple, which could be tender or sore, and the breasts then get larger, usually unevenly. Men having gynecomastia may show the following symptoms:
- Swelling of breast tissue
- Nipple sensitivity or tenderness on rubbing against clothes
- Breast tenderness
- Pain, especially in adolescents
- Nipple discharge (rare)
Dr. Sunil Arora can help the patient in identifying the symptoms associated with gynecomastia and also provide an early diagnosis and treatment plan for the condition.

Which are the Different Types of Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia Types Based on the Breast Tissue Composition
Gynecomastia can be of the following different types based on the composition of the male breast tissue:
- True gynecomastia: When there is excess growth of the glandular tissue in the male breast tissue, the condition is known as true gynecomastia.
- Pseudogynecomastia: An enlarged male breast tissue appearance due to the deposition of excess fat or adipose tissue in the male breast region is known as pseudogynecomastia.
- Mixed gynecomastia: When the male breast tissue is enlarged due to the deposition of fat and glandular tissue, the condition is known as mixed gynecomastia.
Types of Gynecomastia Depending on the Duration of the Condition
Gynecomastia can be classified into the following different types based on the period for which a man has had the condition:
- Florid gynecomastia: This is an early-stage type of gynecomastia, in which breast tissue enlargement has occurred for four months or less. It is characterized by an increase in the ductal tissue and vascular tissue.
- Fibrous gynecomastia: This stage is usually seen after one year and is characterized by the presence of few ducts, very little glandular or vascular tissue, and more stromal fibrosis.
- Intermediate gynecomastia: This stage denotes the progression of the florid type of gynecomastia to the fibrous type of gynecomastia.
What Happens in Gynecomastia Surgery?
Gynecomastia surgery can be performed using different techniques depending on the individual circumstances of a patient.
The procedure of gynecomastia surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia, which involves putting the patient to sleep before the procedure. In some cases, the procedure may be performed under local anesthesia with sedation, which involves numbing the treatment area and giving the patient sedatives to help them relax and feel calm during the procedure. The different techniques used for gynecomastia surgery are:
Liposuction Technique for Gynecomastia Surgery
This procedure is recommended when gynecomastia occurs primarily due to the excess fat tissue in the breasts.
The surgery involves the insertion of a thin, hollow metal cannula through several tiny incisions made by the surgeon in the breast region.
The cannula will then be moved back and forth in a controlled way to help in loosening the excess fat, which will be removed from the body using a vacuum suction.
Excision Technique for Gynecomastia Surgery
This technique is recommended when the excess glandular tissue in the breast region or the excess skin needs to be removed to treat gynecomastia.
Excision may also be needed if the nipple or areola needs repositioning.
The excision technique involves the removal of the excess breast tissue through several incisions made by the surgeon in the breast region.
Gynecomastia Surgery by Combination Technique
Sometimes, gynecomastia surgery is performed using a combination of the above two techniques.
