Understanding Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is a condition in men where there is abnormal growth of breast tissue. The growth may occur in one or both breasts and is generally stimulated by estrogens. The condition is commonly called man-boobs. The condition affects about 15% of men worldwide. Gynecomastia is the most common physical symptom of estrogen dominance in men. Often a deficiency in the hormone testosterone results in gynecomastia.

Personal Assessment Tools
- Aging Male Symptoms (AMS) Self-Assessment: The Aging Male Symptoms (AMS) questionnaire is a 17 question self-rating symptoms based questionnaire with three key domains of assessment - mind (5 questions), body (7 questions) and sexual (5 questions). Responses to each question are assigned a rating 1-5 (none to extremely severe) and the total sum of all subscales provides a total score. Scores can range from a total low of 17 to a maximum of 85, with a complaint score measuring greater than 50 considered severe.
The AMS is well suited to assist in both the diagnosis of testosterone deficiency and for the monitoring of treatment in patients using testosterone replacement therapy.Evaluate your symptoms with the Aging Male Symptoms (AMS) Self-Assessment
