I'm a 19-year-old guy and I've been noticing that my beard isn't growing much. I eat a lot but it seems like my body isn't really growing either, as I've become taller but thinner. Also, my penis seems small to me. I usually masturbate about three times a week. Should I be concerned about my health because of these things?

I have gynaecomastia and got conflicting advice my homeopathic doctor says it can be cured with medicine but the cosmetic surgeon insists surgery is the only option. Can homeopathy really reduce male breast tissue and if so how long would it take? I'm getting married in a year and want to know if it's possible without surgery

While homeopathic medicine may be used for gynecomastia, it's crucial to understand that its effectiveness is not scientifically proven and may vary significantly. Surgery is generally considered the most effective and reliable treatment for gynecomastia
