Overview

Gynaecomastia is the most common chest disorder men face in their life. There are 2 types of male breast enlargement, teenage gynaecomastia and true gynaecomastia. Teenage gynaecomastia is often caused by hormonal changes in boys as young as 10 years old with the condition peaking at around 13 to 15 years old. This condition usually goes away as the boy grows older.

Gynaecomastia is a common disorder of the male breast in which there is a benign glandular enlargement of that breast, often associated with abnormal fat deposition around the breast.
