For a New Year’s resolution say goodbye to Gynecomastia embarrassment. Every year we make resolutions that most of us forget about and never follow through with. We make the resolutions usually from a personal conviction that there is something about your life that’s not quite right and we want to fix it. Think about the most common resolutions out there. People resolve to quit smoking because they know it isn’t good for them. Others resolve to lose weight or begin an exercise routine because they don’t like how they look, they want to be more health conscious, or both. Alas, these and many other resolutions rely heavily on one’s willpower or personal discipline or incentive and, as such, tend to fail miserably. Sometimes it’s hard to figure out what’s worse, the bad thing in your life that you just can’t beat or the fact that, once again, you broke your New Year’s resolution.
If you’re like most people, you have made a few resolutions this year. As the year goes by and we don’t achieve those resolutions we think, “Cheer up, there’s always next year”.
You may also be one of those men who identifies a problem but believes there is no solution for it. You simply conclude that it’s something with which you have to live with and come to terms with. This may be the case if you’re one of the 40 to 60 percent of men who have gynecomastia.
Gynecomastia Basics
Gynecomastia in the broadest, simplest term is a hormonal imbalance.
- Excess, localized fat
- Excess glandular tissue development
- A combination of both excess fat and glandular tissue
- The aforementioned may be present in one of both breasts
- Affects men of all ages at many different stages
- Can be the side effects of another disease, certain drugs, hereditary conditions, and hormonal changes
Sorry for dropping a clinical word on you like that. For such a common condition, gynecomastia isn’t widely known by its proper name. Most people are far more crude in how they describe it, but frankly, “man boobs,” or “man breasts,” are more effective names for identifying the condition that affects so many individuals, even if such terminology is a bit brash.
If you have man boobs, you know how embarrassing it can be to go to the pool, shower in the gym or do anything shirtless. Your self-image has taken a serious hit, but you’ve also probably concluded that it’s a simple consequence of your genes, your weight, or your age. You deal with it by wearing shirts, sweaters, or jackets that will draw attention away from your breasts. The problem with this belief is that on top of your poor body image, your sense of hopelessness about the problem adds to your misery. You didn’t make a New Year’s resolution to lose the man boobs, because you didn’t think there was anything you could do about them
