I've had gynecomastia since I was 13 and I'm wondering if homeopathy can actually help or if surgery is the only way to fix it. Can you tell me what my options are for treating this?

Homeopathic treatment for gynecomastia may or may not prove to be effective in treating gynecomastia. There can be some side effects such as digestive issues, nausea, vomiting, cold after taking the homeopathic medicines for gynecomastia. Also, it takes lots of time to show effective results with this treatment option Gynecomastia, or enlarged male breast tissue, can be treated with both non-surgical and surgical options, with surgery being the most effective for chronic or severe cases. Non-surgical approaches include lifestyle changes, medications, and cryolipolysis. Surgical options include liposuction and mastectomy

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 a pituitary macroadenoma for 10 years and have been on cabergoline 0.5 mg twice a week since 2016 to manage it. The tumor size hasn't reduced and has stayed the same for the last 3 years. I've been getting treatment at AIIMS since 2014 but really don't want to go for another transcranial surgery since I've already had two before. The meds or hormonal imbalance have also caused low libido and slower semen regeneration. I've tried Poona Hospital, SGPGI Lucknow, and now AIIMS but I'm exhausted from all the medications. Is there any way to remove this tumor completely without another major surgery? Currently taking Wysolone 2.5-5 mg on alternate days, Thyronorm 100 mg daily, and cabergoline 0.5 mg twice a week. What are my options now?

You have take best advice from aiims. Follow it
