Are you mildly overweight? It's normal for
the chest region to become breast-like
when there's a bit of weight added.
There are instances where men do grow
breasts, though. It's a hormonal thing.
Men can grow one or two breasts given the
right hormonal circumstances. If you're
worried that you might be growing a
breast, especially if your chest looks
particularly asymmetrical, you should see
a doctor. The sooner the better.

im 17, 6ft4" and weight around 17.5st...
my bodies in proportion with my size, but
i myself suffer with "man boobs".
depending on what tops i wear, they are
more obvious.
mine seem to be more pointy [if you
understand that] than normal looking
boobs.
im happy with the way i am, and i dont
feel like i want to change.
anyway, i know doing alot of exercise [and
upper body exercise] can burn off the
fatty tissue, but as marvel said, it could
be a hormonal thing.

Hmmm, ur probably just a little chubby.
However, I have heard of a genetic
disorder called "Kleinfelter's" or
something like that which causes man
boobs. However, the genetic disorder
causes a male to have feminine traits
besides man boobs such as an inability to
have a muscular built, etc. If u don't
have the other signs, ur probably just a
health forum.

Do you have the syndrome in which you have
more than just one X chromosome? So your
23rd chromosome looks like XXY instead of
just XY?

Male breasts. Posted: 07-13-08 13:35pm
Hi there,
My boyfriend had quite a problem with man
breasts. It really got him down and he
lacked confidence. We tried to get him
help but nothing worked really. So we
tried this in the end..(edited to remove
link). It really worked for him so it may
be worth a shot for you too. Wishing you
all the best for the future... Sarahx
