I'm no expert but it kind of looks like gynecomastia, but you'd have to lose some weight to be sure as it could just be fat.

I know i do work out alot and stuff but they hang out farther than my stomach does. This sucks because I won't be able to afford surgery. I wish there was pills of some sort.

From looking at your pics  (the third one)  you  do seem to be overweight generally not just on your chest . It does look like gyno but you can't be sure until you get your bf down.I would give exerice more of a go first esp if you have trouble affording surgery.Maybe ask a gym instructor for a programme.

It took me six months of living in the gym and running myself ragged before I lost the boobs and they looked a bit like yours.I could have just afforded surgery but I wanted a new car more.I still have a slight puffy nipple on one side but it isn't boob like.Good luck.

Sure looks like it to me Dude.

Your chest looks similar to mine, pre-op.

But theres no point worrying about it while your still able to do the Truffle Shuffle. Shift the lbs and see what happens.

I think you might have it, but trying to lose weight first might help before considering surgery.

...uhhh well i hoped you at least went to an endocrinologist to have your hormones tested and try to find an underlying cause(if there is any), if you start taking testosterone pills without a doctors approval things might just get worse.

Hello tyrael_91

You 'breasts' are a similar shape and size to mine.  I was overweight a couple of years ago, but have lost significant weight.

I took pics two years ago of my whole body and similar pics about six weeks ago.  Dramatic change in overall body-shape, but guess what?  Chest area the same.

My family doctor agreed that it was breast tissue and is supporting me through surgery which is due on January 20th.

I don't blame you seeking drug therapy for your problem, but I am yet to find a guy (including myself) to have used testosterone or any other systemic remedy to 'cure' gynaecomastia.  In the meantime I'd suggest you go and see an endocrinologist and a plastic surgeon that is experienced in male chest reduction procedures to confirm your diagnosis and tell you what can be done about it.

Best wishes.
