Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone has any pictures of the gland that was removed and the weights. I ask as iv'e just spoken to my surgeon and he said i had 36 grams from the right side and 16 grams from the left and wondered what that looked like in terms of size.

Thanks in advance

sounds pretty light, a gram is like a 28th of an ounce,  somebody like fluffy would have had hundreds of grams removed by comparison, though he of course had a severe case.  but it doesn't take much to stick out and create the problems. 
* a man is more than a body will ever tell
* if it screws up your life the same, is there really any such thing as "mild" gyne?

yea i prolly had over a kilo (1,000grams) removed!!  I went from 315lb to like 307lb (weight 2 days after surgery) after the surgery but I didn't really eat anything after surgery!  Just wasn't real hungry and didn't feel like movin around too much to go get food haha!

Thanks for the replys guys, I appreciate fluffy that from lookin at your pre and post op pictures you'll have had a large amount removed. I'm still curious to know what a similar size gland to mine looks like.

Yeah i've seen them, only problem is it doesn't say the weight of them. I know it may sound like a strange request but it would be good to see how much was removed.

i assume the density is mostly comparable to that of water or maybe slightly heavier.  a gram is about a cubic centimeter of water.  fat weighs a little less than regular tissue but probably not enough to consider.  switch to english system, if it's a cup of volume, that's about 250ml, or about 250g.  most of the removals i saw looked like less, maybe 100-150g.  don't make me look at those pics again  :P  ;)

i don't know, but i'd assume it's kind of a cross between muscle and gristle or tendons. the point is to store cells with a high fat content for easy lactic production.  it's just that, a gland, except it doesn't always balloon out to full volume.

Here are the graphic Pictures of Gland Removed.  Each slide links to before and after surgery photos of the patient showing the problem to be treated and surgical solution. Activate the navigation panel to quickly browse between the various types of gynecomastia. 

Sorry, I do not have current plans to go back and post the weights of gland removed.

Hope this helps,
