Ways To Lose Man Boobs Quickly

By Steve Brodie

Breast development in men " the swelling of fat and tissues in the chest (better known as man boobs, clinically known as gynecomastia) is quite a common problem in the male population. Man boobs often sprout at times of hormonal changes, like in adolescence. In older men it is often the result of drugs involving hormones, and of course hormonal imbalances induced by external environmental factors, and of course excess weight. Basically when the body reduces the level of testosterone it produces the amount of estrogen in the body will rise and this is what can trigger male breast budding.

Having man boobs can be very awkward and upsetting for men. Though physically man boobs wont cause pain, on a psychological level they can be very isolating and upsetting. Some men feel so bad that they resort to wearing specially designed vests that compress down the breast tissue under clothing, and this makes participating in sports and activities like swimming difficult, further increasing the feeling of stigmatisation.

Assuming that only obese of overweight men get man boobs is incorrect " even otherwise slim and fit males can develop breasts. As such just trying to exercise them off doesnt always work, in fact can be very difficult, especially if you are just focusing on fat loss. There are exercises that can help to built the muscles underneath the breast, though looking at diet and lifestyle is very important, as this is generally where the problem starts from.

There is the option of gynecomastia surgery, however this should be relegated to extreme cases of man boobs, because as with any plastic surgery there are risks associated and of course the price is an issue for most of us.
