Hi guys, would love to get your opinion on my case... i am 29 years old male, in reasonable shape and condition etc.. i do exercise however my chest is probably the most psychological let down to me... (particularly the left side) anyhow i wanted to do something about it and find out what going on....
I met up with a doctor specialised in breast & cancer at a private clinic in order to get an ultrasound & mammography done. First of all he said I wouldn't need a mammography done because my age (29) doesn't put me under as a potential candidate for this test… and that is hould be at least 40 years old... furthermore he said I did not have enough ‘’breast’’ to put together for a mammography… therefore he suggested for an ultrasound instead…. do you think this is a fair opinion and i still dont need to get one done if i want to contemplate surgery as an option one day? anyhow....
The findings are as follows:
Small well defined hypoechoic nodule of 5 mm in the left areolar region. A nodular form of gynecomastia is also a possibility… Suggestion: FNAC correlation. I do indeed feel a disc shape build up behind my nipple.. it is tender and it is sore when a lot of pressure is applied on it, it certainly was sore when the doctor pressed it to try obtain the sample via needle.
I proceeded to get a Fine needle aspiration from the small lump in left breast :
Macroscopic description:Small mobile lump appromixately 5 mm at, in the retro areolar region of Left Breast
Microscopic description:Smears show few gragments of adipose tissue, other fragments show fibrocollagenous material. Background shows oily material. No ductal epithelial cell clusters or myopithelial cells seen.
Diagnosis: FNAC Lump left retroareolar region: suggestive of LipomaNo cytological evidence of gynaecomastia in the aspirated material.
Long story short it seems I have a possibily Lipoma disc in my left areolar region….
This is where I strongly need more opinions and any further insight and help I can get…. Guys please help me I don’t know what my remaining options are… I dreadfully hate how my chest is shaped and how it points out.. almost all light colour clothing do show a protruding chest which makes it quite demoralizing for me…..
What do I have?? Does it look like gynocomastia? Is it just execessive fatty tissue build up in my chest…. ?? I always thought it looked to much like Gyno... i have pointy pecs, and a puffy nipple on the left side.. it could be unilateral?
I have done blood work too , it seems normal I do not have cholesterol, my liver functions just fine, my urine analysis shows its all normal as well . I also told them to test my Testosterone and Estrogen levels which seems reasonable as well…
Testosterone total = 420 ng/DL & Estradiol is 21.20 pg/ml Should I go see an endocrinologist
I hope my pics below can help you guys give me an honest feedback to what I should do next..
