Can gynecomastia be treated without surgery and does it really cause infertility in men who have it
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Gynecomastia, or enlarged male breast tissue, can sometimes be treated without surgery, particularly in cases of mild or early-stage gynecomastia, or when it's caused by excess body fat (pseudogynecomastia). However, more severe or glandular-based gynecomastia often requires surgical intervention. While gynecomastia itself doesn't directly cause infertility, a hormonal imbalance that contributes to gynecomastia can sometimes also affect fertility.
