I'm 33 and looking to start male to female hormone replacement therapy but not surgery right now preferably pills or injections to develop feminine features. I've been searching for endocrinology doctors in Bengaluru, Bangalore, or Chennai for about 10 days but haven't found any leads. Can you recommend someone I can visit in person for a consultation?

View allIs a 2.5 cm thyroid nodule large?
Yes, every thyroid nodule larger than 1.0 to 1.5 cm (1/2 inch) in diameter as well as those with a suspicious goiter need to have a fine needle aspiration biopsy to obtain thyroid cells for cytologic evaluation.

I've had man boobs since I was 18 and now I'm 22. At first I thought they'd go away on their own but they haven't, even with regular chest workouts. My nipples are puffy and an awkward shape which makes me think it's gynecomastia. I also have thyroid issues - could that be causing this? What's the best treatment option, medication or surgery?
It's possible you have gynecomastia, and your thyroid issues could be contributing. While it can be common for breast tissue to enlarge during puberty, if it persists into your early twenties, it's important to consult with a doctor. Your doctor can assess your specific situation, including your thyroid condition, and recommend the best course of treatment, which may include medication, liposuction, or surgery

I've been dealing with gynecomastia as a male and it's not painful but really bothers me. Are there any proven non-surgical ways to reduce it? I'd prefer to avoid surgery if possible.
Since gynecomastia is often related to hormonal imbalances, hormone therapy can be an effective non-surgical treatment. Hormonal imbalances, especially high levels of estrogen or low levels of testosterone, can cause the development of enlarged breast tissue in men.
