breast tissue vs fat

[lpcut00]

   Hi guys. See I have gyno in my right side with the lump/ hard gland behind the nipple along with some mild but noticeable fat. Now I want to know and make sure if this is fat. What is the difference between a breast tissue developing and fat. I want to know which one mine is really. Because I have heard you can get rid of fat but not the breast tissue. Thank you.

I work out extensively. So my chest is hard. Both sides. But there is shit soft layer near the top, it is like mushy. What do you think it is?

To be honest it kinda doesn't matter if it's fat or gland if the chest looks like a teat.  You won't know for sure unless you're under the knife.

Yep.  No real way to tell without cutting into you.

Unfortunately, it can be difficult to distinguish just what is causing the problem.  Gynecomastia male breasts can be fat, gland, or most commonly a combination of both.  Sometimes skin and sagging muscles can be a factor.  It is impossible to tell from photographs if the deformity is from fat or gland. The dynamic images, of my standard set of images can show a region that compresses differently.  Even clinical examination differentiation can be difficult.

Fat tends to be soft, gland tends to be firm.  Fingers of gland often dissect between fingers of fat.  Look at this drawing and move your mouse over the arrows.  However, gland can be soft and fat firm confusing the picture.  Gland tends to be located under the nipple and pinching pressure can sometimes tether to the nipple pulling it in.

Men with excessive fat do tend to have certain contour issues.  Check out this link about Sumo Wrestlers.  Men tend to carry excessive weight in their chest and stomach.

Losing weight first, to something you are comfortable with and can maintain is typically a much better option.  Weight loss is a coarse tool.  Unfortunately, you cannot pick where weight comes from - nor can you pick where weight goes back on to.  Gland that contributes to the breast shape is not helped with weight loss.  Fingers of fat in the gland can become smaller, but the contour problem from gland does not go away.  After losing weight plastic surgery can help with localized fat, gland, and extra skin.  After surgery remaining fat cells can put on more weight.

Hope this helps,

Are you kidding me? So I cant go to the doctor and have myself examined to find out? I have to wait for all the thousands of dollars are saved to get an operation before I find out if I have a condition or an unusual pattern of fat storage?? Well I guess it doesnt really matter. Gyne or not it looks absolutely terrible.

pinch your whole breast and kinda rub it  pinched

if it feels fiborous/glandular it's breast tissue

yes, it goes from being nodule type of deal to a bunch of long fiborous shit when u pinch and rub

dissolves away the hard lump.. it does

this also happens when u develope it

first the squishy stuff, then it becomes hard

mine never became hard durring pueberty, i was left with the lump breast tissue stuff

if ur at this state i gaurante u something like Rebound xt would improve greatly

[jdh2511]

The lump is right behind the nipple and hard. The moobs are going away, but the lump is still pretty big and hard. Any ideas? I'm confident it is going to go away without surgery.

thanks everyone. Gynosucks1 can you tell me how you ran your rebound xt... with the foods you at it with and all. I need to give it another shot I am sure mine was from a bad batch and that is why it had no effect on it. I threw away the bottle, so I do not know for sure. But can you just let me know how you ran it, the dosage, foods, and all. Please. thank you. I really can not afford to pay thousdands of dollars for a small area on my chest.
