No, won't go away if it's been there a year. The guy who's dad said his went away... probably had psydo-gyne (fat) and he lost some weight. True gyne won't resolve. I know it hurts, but your road to dealing with it and coping is facing up to it now. This site is a great resource for information and support. The more knowledge you get, the less scary it is and you can map out how you want to deal with it, whether that involves surgery or not. I had it when I was your age until I faced up to it and had surgery at 37. It becomes less of a big deal as you age, but that's a long time to let it fester. You can do better than that!
