I'm 5' 10" and 215 lbs. Do I have gynecomastia? Am I just fat? Both?

Hard to tell..when your arms are down it looks like it, but when your arms are up seemingly no gland is there. Since you are a good amount overweight, I would suggest losing weight because you'd probably have pseudo(fake) gynecomastia meaning it is all fat.

So try losing weight!

[Dr. Elliot Jacobs]

Although the photos are not terrific, they do reveal that you have substantial gyne and are overweight.

Your first job would be to lose weight and get into better shape.  More than likely, some gyne will persist even after weight loss.  But you will be healthier and the results of your operation will be better.

In the meantime, try wearing some snug, body shaping garments to give you a temporary better while you are getting in shape for surgery.

Best of luck!

Thanks for the quick responses. I used to weigh 170 and I still had what (to me) looked like gynecomastia -- although my chest was notably smaller. I'm trying to lose weight again, but I'm pessimistic about losing this flabby chest.

looks like mild case of gyne its not too bad maybe working out might help, but as dr jacob said if ur interested in surgery it will be better.
