I'm really worried about something, and I hope you can help. I've noticed that my chest is developing in a way that looks like a female breast, and it's getting me quite stressed. I'm really hoping to find a solution for this, but I would prefer not to have surgery. Also, I've picked up a habit of masturbating twice a day, and I really want to stop doing it altogether. Any advice on how I can deal with these issues?
