Re: Told my mom Saturday!
Many young men have a great reluctance to speak with their parents about Gynecomastia.

Let this man's story be an example to anyone who is having difficulty opening the topic. You have nothing to lose and a lot to gain by making your concerns known to your parents.

Often the parents are well aware of your condition but they will not open the topic because they do not wish to put you in an embarrassing situation. If the subject is to be discussed openly, YOU must speak out.
