22 yr old - Have had gyne for almost 10 yrs

[agentoz]

Hi guys,

I've had large puffy nipples for nearly 10 years of my life and I have to say that I'm fed up with them! I feel like I've missed out on so many things during my teenage years because of this condition. I have avoided being shirtless numerous times even though I really wanted to take off my shirt and also, I have a bad posture due to hunching over so people would not notice my large puffy nipples sticking out from under my shirts. I recently told my parents that I had this condition and they told me to see a GP first. I am definitely having this surgery despite what my GP might say. I need to get my life back!

Unfortunately I can't provide pics. However I am 100% certain that I have gynecomastia. As I said my nipples are large, puffy (not hard but soft) and are like this when they are not physically stimulated with my fingers, water or exposed to the cold.  

I just wanted to tell you all about this in order to get it off my chest (no pun intended)

welcome.  you're probably right, as unfortunately very few gp's are competent when it comes to gyne advice.  wish you your life back asap.
