Is there any way to treat gynecomastia without surgery? I've been doing exercises but they don't seem to help at all. Can it go away on its own or do I need medical intervention?

Yes, there are non-surgical treatments for gynecomastia, and exercise alone may not be enough to significantly reduce breast tissue. While exercise can help reduce overall body fat and build chest muscles, it might not address the glandular tissue itself. Medications, hormone therapy, and procedures like cryolipolysis or ultrasound therapy can also be effective. Some cases of gynecomastia, especially those caused by hormonal imbalances or puberty, may also resolve on their own over time

I've had gynecomastia under just my right nipple for the past 13 years it stays the same size but hurts when I press it. Does ayurveda offer any treatment options that don't involve surgery?

For gynecomastia, Ayurveda may offer herbal treatments or massage therapies to reduce breast size, but surgery is generally more effective if the condition persists.

I'm feeling a bit concerned because ever since I recovered from COVID, I've been super thirsty and really hungry all the time. I've started doing some exercise and going for walks. Could that be causing these issues, or might it be related to my recovery?

Once get your Diabetic and Thyroid profile done if they turn out to be normal you are perfectly healthy.

I'm a bit concerned about some health issues I've been experiencing recently. A few months ago, my SGPT levels were at 100 and they've gone up to 114. I usually don't drink alcohol, so I'm not sure what's causing it. On top of that, I've been dealing with thinning hair, hair loss, dull skin, and acne. My hair on my head and beard seems scattered. I've also noticed a significant drop in the volume of ejaculation. All these symptoms started showing up mostly after I went through a tough breakup which really hit me hard and led to depression. Ever since then, I've felt drowsy and low on energy all the time. My memory recall isn't great, and it's like I have brain fog. I'm at a point where I'm considering taking organic multivitamins or supplements to help. Could all of this be connected, and are there specific vitamins or supplements you think might help?

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way, and it's understandable that a difficult breakup can take a toll. Given your symptoms, it's a good idea to consult a doctor to address both your physical and emotional well-being. Supplements like multivitamins can help, but focusing on mental health support and managing stress is equally important for your overall recovery.
