  1. What is gynecomastia surgery? A condition that leads to the enlargement of male breast tissue is known as gynecomastia. Often, men are embarrassed about this issue, and over the years, the demand for gynecomastia surgery in Mumbaiis ever-growing. The male tissue tends to grow during puberty, hormonal surges, and under some conditions, breast tissue shrinks after puberty. Still, the majority of the time, the male tissue tends to remain the same as per the house of doctors. Some of the common causes of gynecomastia include puberty, excess weight gain, use of anabolic steroids, and marijuana steroids. Besides that, even some medications tend to cause male breast enlargement. How to know if one needs gynecomastia surgery in Mumbai? Ideally, gynecomastia tends to occur in both breasts, but the majority of the people have asymmetric or unilateral breasts. The breast self-exam ideally highlights palpable, tender, firm, mobile, disc-like mound tissues that aren't hard as breast cancer and can be found near the nipple-areolar complex. The house of doctors mainly suspects a breast cancer when palpable masses are unilateral, rigid, fixed, peripheral to the nipple besides nipple discharge, skin changes, or enlarged lymph. With or without excess fat in the breasts, people tend to complain about lumps in their breasts if they have a complaint of gynecomastia. Doctors tend to suggest surgery to remove the breast tissues that includes liposuction of the excess fat, surgical removal of the additional glandular breast tissue through an incision. Ideally, the incision is done by the house of doctorsin the margin of the nipple-areolar complex. But before the surgery, one must ensure that the medical professional perform a proper physical exam of one’s breasts to confirm gynecomastia. When it comes to preparing for surgery, one needs to stop medications that increase the risk of bleeding, quitting smoking, and ensure they consume all the vitals.
