me fatty - help!!

Tall

Hey bud.

Its pretty much as Pikey said to be honest. Looks like a bit of gyno maybe - nothing that the docs won't be able to sort out.

Diet wise - add in lots of veg, all the colours under the sun - Brocolli, Cauli, Green Beans etc etc

You could possibly be even lower than 17% - but it depends on how you hold it everywhere else. Basically you're in the lean category.

Keep up the hard work and nag the docs bud.

i have read though that people my age who have this problem and went to doctors got told my them that its natural for some people and they will grow out of it by the age of 25. 25 F##k that! ive had them for the last 10 years, dont think i can handle another 8 years of them!!

what can the doc do? give me hormone tablets to balance out my testosterone estrogen ratio?

kk. just made an apointment for tomorrow afternoon. hope it goes ok. il keep you all posted on what he says - if anything.

25 is prob the top-end estimate fella. Doc'll tell you more tomoro. Good luck.
My tip; stay off the lager for a while. Or you'll have a nice pair, just like me!

Pikey

My first guess he'll tell you they will go away given time, which they would so you're going to have to make a big issue of how you feel about it and that you have self confidence issues etc. He could prescibe Estrogen blockers but probably won't want to, push the issue and I'm pretty sure he will, be honest about how you feel they're only doing a job and that job is to help with any health concerns which includes this sort of thing.

Hey and look on the bright side me I got covered in acne and actually started loosing my hair at 16, was bald by 21 and before anyone suggest no it wasn't side effects...just runs in my family...

ok thanks. ive been looking it up, problem if i do have it though. is most sources say there no cure except surgery - which cant be done on the NHS as seen as cosmetic - so costing £3000!! how am i gonna afford that. im actually praying its just fat and with diet and exercise i can get rid of the f##kers.

tbh mate i think if you lay it on thick and say how depressed the situation is making you and if surgery really is the only option i dont see how they can refuse-
after all woman with big boobies get it done free these days...

einsteins mind was the key to all things...to understand more than to know.

I know a woman who had a boob job on the NHS because her lack of breasts was making her dipressed as Cal says lay it on thick. I doubt you'll need that but lead with how this is mkaing you feel...

Hey guys,
just got back from the doc's. he says i defineately have gynecasastia (or however you spell it)... im v.happy that its diagnosed but pissed off i cant get rid of it by myself.
saw a brill doc, he says i def have it and he has seen it many times. im booked in for a blood test friday morning to check my hormone levels. (very embarresing as....he had to touch me where no man has ever touched :'(... ) he says every time he has dealt with it he gets it sorted. depending on the blood test he says he can give me stuff to balance my hormones or if its not that (he said he doubted v.much its my hormones) then surgery. he says he has put in all the ppl before for surgery, a few times had it rejected (as they said it was cosmetic) but he wrote sturn letters and got the surgery booked.
am so relieved i went, he said to no worrie as he will get it sorted for me.
first thing that came to my head once he said surgery was *crap, i wonder for how long i wont be able to bench press* (sad ey).
anyway, sorry to ramble on but havent told anyone so thought id let you all know.
thanks for all your help and support
il keep you posted
