I'm a 26-year-old guy and I think I have a hormonal imbalance causing gynocomastia. I've had it for years now and I'm really worried about it. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? Who should I see for this issue? I'd really prefer to avoid surgery if possible.

I'm dealing with gynecomastia and a small penis size since I was a kid. Its really tough because I can't wear t-shirts or go shirtless at the beach or pool without feeling super embarrassed, and its really knocked my confidence down. Could this be because of a hormonal imbalance? What steps should I take for treatment? I'm really hoping for a complete transformation once I start treatment.
