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.
