Photos of what I'm living with

[WonderfullyMade]

Hello everyone, as mentioned in a post a while back, I used to be a member here and left for a while. I've been lurking for a while now and decided to do a photo update. I'm still growing, currently at a 40C. I do have a little extra weight, but not excessive. What are your thoughts? I honestly kind of like them if only I could work up the nerve to be proud of them in public

Do you guys think it's breast formation or just me being overweight?

A nonprofessional opinion would be that you are most definately in the club of gynecomastia. However a doctor needs to make that call after a physical examination, ultrasound, and/or mammogram. 

Pseudo gynecomastia can be quite convincing as well. 

I would mention it to your doctor on your next visit because gyno is so common that most doctors never mention it if noticed. 

Either way, you have quite a bit of chest and could benefit greatly from support. I wouldn't be embarrassed in the least as all of us are built a bit different, just be proud of who you are with all your physical attributes.

WonderfullyMade, how long have you had chest growth? Before you put on weight or as you put on weight? If you had growth prior to your weight increase then you may have gynecomastia. If your chest developed during your increase in weight then it maybe pseudogynecomastia. A doctor can give the correct diagnosis.

I've had breasts for as long as I can remember, even before gaining some weight. They have definitely grown faster than the rest of me when I gained weight though. 

Whether from breast tissue or just fat, it doesn't really make a difference to me. I don't really want to spend the time or money figuring that out, I'd rather just enjoy them.

I definitely do enjoy the benefits of wearing a bra. I dint wear one to work, but I look forward to putting one on at home

My opinion is no matter what kind of gyno it is. It’s still breast growth. There are a lot of overweight men that do not develop breasts. Just depends on what part of your body that your fat goes to. Boobs are boobs. Doesn’t really matter how they got there🤣

Thank you so much for this. ❤️

Belated welcome!  To me, it looks more like true gyno rather than pseudo, but regardless, the net challenges of being a guy with a bustline and support needs (physical and emotional) are the same.  Glad you’re using support already; look forward to your sharing of your perspectives and thoughts.

I would say gynecomastia, not pseudo, based on their shape and size.  And I can see why you would feel and look best in a bra.

I completely agree to Busty's comment. Very nice breasts and you'd pass the pencil test without any problems WonderfullyMade. In my opinion it's not important if you have gynecomastia or lipomastia, but I'd count it as gyne. There are many women who have glandular tissue and fat and they won't ask either. Wear a bra, at first at home and if you become more self-confident wear it to work also. You have two good reasons:) to wear a bra.

It's been several months and I've put on a few pounds. I've noticeably gained some mass in my breasts. I need to get fitted again sometime, my cutlrrent bras are getting a little tight.

Yeah there does look like quite a bit of  progression since the last photo.  You'll feel much more comfortable in a new bra that can properly accommodate your developing breasts. As you will likely be wearing a bra all the time your comfort is paramount.

I would be careful about rashes in the IMF fold under your breasts. It's not something you want to play with. Been there. Got the tee shirt. A bra will keep that lifted and help cut down on skin on skin rashes.

You definitely pass the pencil test. With the growth you have shown since your last pictures, you must be spilling out of your C cups. I am guessing you will feel and look much better in a D cup at that your bra fitter will be quite impressed how big you now are.  And still growing!
