The enlargement of breasts in boys or men is called gynaecomastia. It is a medical condition that usually occurs due to hormonal imbalance during infancy, adolescence or old age. In most of the cases, gynaecomastia is benign and can be a source of physical embarrassment and psychological distress. Usually, the condition goes away on its own, but proper treatment is necessary for severe or persistent conditions. If an underlying health condition is the reason behind gynaecomastia, treatment of that particular problem improves gynaecomastia. 

Generally, gynecomastia occurs when the balance between androgens and estrogens shifts, resulting in an increase in estrogens or decrease in androgens. This shifting of hormones usually happens during puberty, aging or due to the use of certain drugs or herbals. If you anticipate that gynaecomastia will cure on its own or mistake it as a common condition, the problem can worsen with time and affect your health and overall being. That is why, timely and proper treatment becomes important. 

What Happens In Case Of Untreated Gynaecomastia?

Untreated gynaecomastia can lead to several other health issues. However, the most common and visible complications of untreated gynecomastia include the following:-

  • Swelling in one or both the breasts.
  • Increase in the diameter of the areola. 
  • Tenderness in one or both the breasts.
  • Tissues of chest may become asymmetrical.

Apart from the above-mentioned physical changes, gynaecomastia can impact you in a psychosocial way as well. A number of researches suggest that the patient suffering from this condition can suffer from low self-esteem and are often preys of bullying, which has a long-lasting effect on the physical and mental health, self-confidence and social well being.

How To Get Rid Of Gynaecomastia Permanently?

A lot of treatment options are there which can be used to treat gynaecomastia. This may include medications, Homeopathic treatment, Ayurvedic treatment, home remedies, etc. 

But the problem with all these options is that people who tried medical treatment had to suffer from various side effects. This includes weakness, dizziness, headache, chest pain, breathing problem and vision problem among others. 

Homeopathic treatment may or may not prove to be effective in curing the problem as well. Homeopathic medicine may also cause some side effects including digestive problems, nausea, vomiting, etc. Not only this, Homeopathic treatment also takes lots of time to show results. 

The same goes with Ayurvedic treatment as well. Ayurvedic medicines cause some side effects too when taken in incorrect amounts. The side effects mainly include headache, stomach upset, vertigo, nausea, vomiting and mouth ulcer. 

As far as home remedies for gynaecomastia is concerned, having a balanced diet and doing exercise regularly can help you in getting into shape to some extent only. If your gynaecomastia is in its severe stage, home remedies may not offer you the desired results.
