Gynecomastia

jimtors Posts: 38 Joined: 2002/09/09	2003/05/03, 12:32 AM My training partner is down to 9% body fat but still has a mild case of gynecomastia. He spoke to a doctor who recommended surgery to fix it but does anyone know of non surgical procedures to rememdy it?

Some that stop taking the meds lose the swelling. If a doc recommended surgery, chances are that it's more glandular. If it's more fat, however, there is one promising thing out there, from what I've read, called Yohimburn. I don't know if it works; I was researching it because my "bitchtits" were one of the last things to shrink in my 40 lb. weight loss...it's spooky. Roughly 30% of all males have gynecomastia or pseudogynecomastia.
