The condition is most commonly due to a hormonal imbalance - usually a testosterone deficiency allowing the “female” hormone estrogen to stimulate breast development.
Gynecomastia is not always directly linked to obesity: however, obesity is associated with lower testosterone levels and fat cells produce estrogens - the combination has a direct action of stimulating growth of the breast tissue.
Gynecomastia is a serious medical condition that in 10% of cases requires surgical correction - the impact on the confidence of pubescent boys and adult males can be severe.
This website explains gynecomastia in clear, concise and plain language including the causes and treatment options available.
