bruising???

[williamPI]

first let me state that i AM NOT interested in surgery
these things dont seem to inhibit my daily life, social life, or sexual life...
but if it is possible i would like them gone without surgery


now let me state my condition

i have puffy nipples and glands underneath...
protruding about a half inch
no, or very little breast tissue
not much or any excess body fat (6% bf)
and my chest is particularly lean
i even have striations heavily along my upper chest, and mildly along the mid and lower pec area

but the nipples are definitely gyn or, early gyn, as they are not developing surrounding breast tissue


let me now state my stats

im 5'11"
165
low body fat roughly 6%
i have abs, all 8, you can even see my intercoastals
32 inch waist

i have never taken steroids
and i have NEVER used illegal substances

ive been working out alot lately and and deiting properly

i woke up this morning and when i looked in the mirror there was bruising ON the nipple itself, and it even seemed to be smaller in size, not half size, but smaller


now
for my question

i have a question
is it possible, that as my body fat decreases, and lean muscle increases,
is it possible that an increase in testosterone levels and decrease in estrogen levels is causing the glandular tissue to decrease in size?

oh yeahhhh


im 19
and i have had these sence about age 15?
maybe 14?

they have not grown in probably 3+ years

normally it'd be late in the game for remission, but since it doesn't sound seriously advanced it might be possible to work at it from an endocrinological side. 

the bruising sounds unusual though, and in your shoes i'd think about getting a medical look at it, especially if it looks like it gets any worse, it may not even require gyne expertise to have a guess.  if you go in to talk to an endo he/she may answer the question too.

condition seems to have improved again SLIGHTLYYY

but the improvment is very slight

[williamPI]

definitely post puberty

or
late in puberty


im 19 years old

i shave my face daily
if i go a few days without shaving it my boss bitches at me

hair on my back, chest, genitalia

my youthfull acne has subsided (which was never severe)


is it possible that this reduction in size is due to a loss of body fat in the localized area?
isnt breat tissue comprised of fat?

i understand glandular tissue will not easily be ubsorbed by the body, but the small amount of fatty tissue around it may

right?

yes and no, the fat normally stays in the cells, just like women's don't shrink significantly with weight loss.  somebody once claimed yohimburn had an effect, but for most people it did nothing, in his case it wasn't that much, and anything it did probably reabsorbed into the system and would have redeposited without a lot of exercise.  i think you'd be better off saving your money.
