I first started noticing I had signs of Gynecomastia at a young age. Going into about 7th grade, I really noticed it. People walking by, grabbing your breasts in the locker room at football practice, being the last guy in the shower. It progressively got worse from an emotional stand point as I got older. I started noticing it more, and wore almost all dark colors, jackets, or loose button ups to try and conceal it. Even during the summer, my wardrobe never changed. As I'm entering my first year of nursing school, I want to be able to be taken seriously. It's hard for me to build up enough confidence to be wearing revealing colors in my scrubs, which are the school's color, red. My senior year of high school, I was at a maximum weight of 244 pounds. I started exercising and eating better around this age, and also got a job where alot of physical labor is involved. I'm now down to 195. However, my "man boobs" have not changed a bit. I've lost a full 4 sizes in my pants, and gone from an XL to a medium shirt. I want to get the surgery, but also want to make sure I meet the right criteria. Money, for the time being, is not an issue. I have enough to cover half the surgery, and can finance the rest. I'm in the Houston region. Any good surgeon recommendations? What do you think of my condition?
You can't quite see the puffiness, it was kinda cold. lol.
