Yes, you do appear to have gyne.

Try exercising and losing weight -- that might help, but I predict you will still have some excess residual tissue.

thankyou doctor..but i donot feel any kind of hardness beneath it..n i used to do some chest excercises like bench presses..so these made them look more big because of the growing muscle..but now i have quited them..and how are u suggesting that i have gyno??? n how will u rate it?

[johnny11]

and if i lose weight n excercise..how much of it will get reduced??

.but i donot feel any kind of hardness beneath it.

Gynecomastia is defined as excess tissues (obviously not muscle) on a male chest.  It can be firm or soft -- one cannot diagnose gyne by how hard the tissue feels.

Looking at your chest, it appears that you have excess tissue (it does not look like all muscle).  that would define gynecomastia.

If you lose weight and build muscle, your chest should improve in contour but it is impossible to predict to what degree it will improve.

Good luck.
