Question

I've had gynaecomastia for about 2 years now and I'm really not keen on surgery. Are there any other ways to reduce male breasts without going under the knife?

Yes, several non-surgical options can be used to reduce gynecomastia, including lifestyle changes, hormone therapy, and certain medications. These methods can be effective for some men, particularly those with mild symptoms or whose gynecomastia is primarily due to excess fat or hormonal imbalances.

Question

I'm really worried because during a recent medical check-up, they found nodules about 1-1.5 cm on my thyroid. I honestly don't feel like I have any health issues and have checked my thyroid reports twice and everything, including TCH, is normal. I'm feeling really anxious about this. What could this mean? What should I do next?
