Hello,

This has been bothering me for a long time and I'm wondering if I do indeed have gynecomastia.

Thanks.

I see views, but no replies... Should I post more pictures?

It doesn't look too bad. Is it just under the nipple or does it extend across the pecs?

I'm not sure, how can figure out if it extends?

With the pictures that you provide it looks like puffy nipples.

If you look at other people's post of pictures that is how others are able to tell how bad or not you may have gyne. If you are getting a message that the file is to big use a lower setting on the camera.

Pinch around the nipple to see if you can feel extra tissue there.

When I pinch the nipple that's sticking out there's nothing, but when I pinch around I do.Also, about like 4 years ago my nipples hurt where that extra tissue resides and I wasn't sure why. So maybe that was a symptom too?

You do have puffy nipples -- at a minimum.  Most often, puffy nipples are accompanied by additional excess tissue in the surrounding chest area -- but that is difficult to tell from you photos.

Suggest you consult with an experienced gyne surgeon in your area.
