I've been struggling with gynaecomastia for a while now and tried everything from dieting to gym workouts and running, but nothing seems to work. Is there any way to fix this without going through surgery?

it is possible to decrease the breast prominence by a weight-loss and exercise program as a first-line treatment. Frequently, recurrence in patients affected by gynecomastia results from an imbalance between estradiol and testosterone, and such cases can resolve without surgical intervention.

I'm feeling extremely hungry lately for the past three days and it's starting to worry me a bit. I'm eating the same as usual, but it just doesn't seem to satisfy me. Could there be any particular reason for this sudden increase in hunger, and should I be concerned about any underlying health issues? What can I do to manage this excessive hunger?

I've been dealing with excessive sweating for the past couple of years, and it's to the point where it feels like I've just had a bath. I've had all the tests done and everything seems normal, but it's really bothering me. Is there something that could be causing this or something else I should be looking into? What could be going on here?

Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, can be quite bothersome. Since your tests are normal, you may consider trying anticholinergic medications to help reduce sweating. One commonly prescribed medication is Glycopyrrolate, which can be taken orally in a dose of 1-2 mg twice daily. Another option is topical application of Aluminum chloride hexahydrate solution, which can be applied to the affected areas at night. It is important to follow up with your doctor to monitor the effectiveness and any potential side effects of these medications.

I'm struggling with some health issues and I'm not sure what to make of them. I've been dealing with wheezing and trouble breathing, along with a dry cough. At first, I tried treatment for GERD, but it didn't help. This has been happening on and off for about 4 years now. What worries me even more is that since last year I've noticed I'm urinating a lot more and it's really diluted, plus I'm feeling dehydrated. My plasma osmolality is 320. Are these signs related to something specific? My kidney, liver, and thyroid functions all checked out normal, and so did my CBC. What could be going on here?
