Heck, I will tell anyone who does this that I love my breasts and am very happy having them. If that didn't shut them up I would report them for unprofessional conduct. Forwarned is forearmed.

Been jumping through all the hoops here in TN, Cats, MRI, colonoscopy , blood draws, punlmonary function tests , cardiac stress test with multiple specialists. This CHEK 2 mutation & MEN Syndrome has taken the locals a bit of catching up to do on endocrinology. The latest is my body tries to produce a cancer every 18 months. The new surveillance sked is now worked out & the mammogram is next Wednesday. Tissue is very dense won’t be surprised if they want an US after. The Prolactin level has no doubt gone up a bit as Endocrinologist cut back the med that controls the cranial tumor, PRL level was too low. The result is my breasts seem a bit more full. 

We will see how the southern belles manning the machine react to a guy invading the gynecologist office

FYI, 

Medical providers and staff are not allowed to discriminate against you because of having gynecomastia or any related condition. Discrimination in healthcare based on medical conditions, including gynecomastia, is unethical and often illegal.

Under laws like the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and other healthcare regulations in the United States, patients have the right to receive care without discrimination based on physical or medical conditions. Gynecomastia, which is the enlargement of male breast tissue, is a medical condition, and healthcare providers are expected to treat patients with respect, dignity, and equal care regardless of their condition.

If you feel you have been discriminated against due to gynecomastia or any other health issue, you can report it to:

The healthcare facility’s patient advocacy or complaint department
State medical boards or health departments
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights
