Question

I'm a 26-year-old guy from Bangalore and I think I might have gynecomastia. I've been hitting the gym for the last 6 months but not seeing proper muscle growth. I'm not overweight but my beard growth is patchy and my chest looks bigger than it should. Could this be low testosterone? I'd prefer non-surgical options can you suggest what medications might help and recommend a good doctor in Bangalore to check my condition?

It's possible you have gynecomastia, which can be caused by hormonal imbalances or certain medications. While low testosterone can be a factor, it's essential to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. They can measure hormone levels and rule out other causes

Question

I've noticed my neck has been getting bigger over the past two weeks. It's not affecting my breathing or swallowing, but it is noticeable, and my family can see it too. I'm worried it might be something like a thyroid issue or a goiter since thats what my quick internet search suggested. Is there anything specific I should do, or is it okay if I send a picture for a closer look?
