Hello and my Story

[NateP]

Hi all

Just thought I would introduce myself.  I'm 22, 15% bodyfat 175lbs with a case of gyno i was diagnosed with @ 14 or so.  The doctor walked in after a routine checkup, and asked if I had been doing roids, pot, drinking all of which I had never touched.  My estrogen was out of whack and I started developing breasts, much like a womans, but not saggy, just like someone inflated my pecs with fat.  I always used work as an excuse to get out of anywhere I would needed to take my shirt off.  I took alot of shit having them in highschool as I did wrestling and started playing padiddle with girls (sigh).  My back might have developed a natural arch to lesson the affects, but im working on my posture to correct it.

Anywho, I just started working out again, hopefully going to focus on the chest as well as cardio.  Started to take some martial arts as I have become a huge UFC fan. 


Don't feel so alone now, I always figured the world has attractive people so it needs ugly ones.  Guess I'm just doing my part.

don't get down on yourself, you shouldn't say your ugly.  youve come to a good place, and good luck with your exercise.  if you have gland tissue, exercise will not work though.

I don't think I'm being down on myself, just honost. 

Is there any way to tell if its gland tissue vs fat?

Thanks
Nate

If it is a gland, youll be able to feel it under your nipple.  The differ in size, it could be the size of a pea to the size of an actual breast.  But it feels much harder than normal fat tissue.

It feels like fat, but we'll see.  I may go see a doctor and see what he/her thinks.

Nate---I love u, man. we all love u.  we r all bro's in suffering.  We have all been victims of the worst kind of undeserved ridicule that a man can handle.  Nate, I was ugly with breasts, but at least now I am ugly without 'em.  Surgery was the best decision of my life, but when I read this site, I learn that surgery is not always so successful.   I still say go for the surgery.  I got about 80% relief, but I would have settled for 50% just to get out of the freak zone.  Nate, in life we all must learn to live with what we must, but I feel that if relief is offered, any relief, we should go for it. Nate, whatever u decide to do, I am with u.
