Question
I've had gynecomastia since puberty and it's really bothering me. Is there any medicine that can help or is surgery the only way to fix it? If I need surgery, how much does it usually cost?

Gynecomastia, or enlarged breasts in men, can be treated with medications or surgery. Medications like Tamoxifen and Raloxifene can help reduce breast tissue growth by blocking estrogen receptors. However, for many cases, especially if it's severe or persistent, surgery is often necessary to remove excess glandular tissue and achieve the desired outcome. The cost of gynecomastia surgery in India can range from Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 60,000, but it's best to get a personalized quote from a surgeon
