Relationship between weed and gynecomastia??

[Batman101]

I have had gynecomastia since I was in the 7th grade. I began smoking weed occasionally in college. I had gynecomastia surgery about a month ago and I resumed smoking weed about 10-14 days after my surgery. Lately ive been noticing that my chest is larger and more pointed than before. There are also painful knots (or knobs) under my nipples that appear to push my chest out a lil further. I saw a marked difference in my chest contour in the weeks after surgery, but now im not so sure. My question is, is it possible to regain breast tissue from weed in the month after surgery. If so, must I have another surgery to correct it?

~ I really appreciate anyone who responds helpfully!!

i was always told that weed made you grow boobs and thought nothing of it because it was a lame statement i thought mothers made up to scare their kids into not smoking. i developed tissue under my nipples that never went away after pubety....i have had them for 8 years. during those 8 years i smoked weed and once i found out that it seriously made you grow breasts......i still smoked! but, i hated my gyne so much i didnt want it to get worse. one of the reasons  i stopped smoking weed  was because i would get really intense body highs and my nipples would feel like they were on fire and throbbing(not chill at all) and the whole time i was high i was thinking "are my nipples getting bigger" RUINED MY HIGH EVERY SINGLE TIME! all my friends are sittin around laughing having a good time and im thinking about my nipples....not very enjoyable! so thats my story about weed. i would not continue to smoke weed because of the risk that comes along with it. ONE reason i even got sober was because i heard that heavy alcohol consumption really hurts the testosterone and raises estrogen levels significantly. i am not sure if you can regain breast tissue once it has been removed but i wouldnt test it out! I would stay far away unless you like having breasts....just in case.

take care

bataman i think im in the same type of predicament as you are in. Ive had gyne since the 7th grade as well, and also smoke weed. It was a weekend thing during high school but in college it grew into an everyday habit. I had my surgery about a week and a half ago and have cut abck from about 5-10 hits a day to about 1 if that a day. My doc has really put it into my head that i should stop completely, but it is a little hard for me since ive been at it for quite a while now. keep me posted on your condition if thats cool with you and ill do the same right back. from a fellw get high guy to another. thanx.

hey also i feel the same way about the nip while im smoking but i always thought of it as the weed just making you kind focusing in on how you feal on the inside. if you get what im saying, more of a pschological thing maybe?

weed increases estrogen levels...its proven... so does alcohol

lol your story cracked me up...In my head i pictured 5 dudes all chilled out thinking about some stupid crazy funny sh*t, all while ur sittin there feeling throbing fire and pondering whether ur t*ts are growing or not haha

i know but its more of a sad story. i wish it wasnt true. now all you stoners that read this are gonna get high and try not to think about your nipples(depending on the quality of bud you smoke).....im sorry for what i have done.

not sure why you would jeopardise your result by contining to smoke weed something which is linked to causing gyne. However it is normal for your chest to fill out after surgery. Mine was very flat after surgery but has now gone quite big again. I havent smoked any weed ever so i can tell you this type of thing can happen due to yur body mending itself and scar tissue forming etc. Weed wouldnt be helping though im sure. Hoever if all the glands were removed during the op their wuld be no danger but i think surgeons usally leave some in to stop inverted nipples.

I'm wondering whether my party habits caused my gyno...I'm sure they didn't help...I believe it all started when I took andro for a while in high school to get "huge."  I got bigger, but in the wrong direction (if that makes sense..lol).  I've smoked grass a decent amount since freshman year of high school and have been quite a binge drinker since college began...then I got my surgery when it became too much to bear.  So except for a few, and I mean a few occasions, I'm gonna lay off the weed and drink a little bit more reasonably.  My surgeon said he removed the entire gland from both sides so I doubt it could come back (hormones need a target to cause things to happen > no gland > no receptor > no regrowth).  But, just to be safe and not to ruin a good thing, I'm definitely gonna have to change some party habits...

I wont take the risk of trying weed bc I hate gyne wayyy more than I would like weed

quitting smoking pot is not as easy as it sounds. for one ive been smoking weed on a day to day basis for about 3-4 years now. this means smoking when i wake up till the time im going to bed. now that ive been trying to quit im going through withdrawls i feel like. waking up in the middle of the night drenched insweat not to mention already all of the tossing and turnig while in bed.

its real hard especially if you dont drink and stay away from all of ther other trash out there.

i was also told not to work out my chest anymore due to the fact that my body could just be like that and by working my chest out, that the flab at the end of the pectoral muscle would come back. if that true to then what the freak! how do i find out whats the right thing for me to do.

[tittyman111]

i got a large muscular chest too. but if the surgeon got it right, then working the chest shouldnt have anything to do with it. my chest is large and pushes my nipples out further too. hopefully when my swelling goes down, it will fix everything. cross ur fingaz.
