• Treating the underlying cause of the gynecomastia like liver diseases or low testosterone levels or medications like steroids, diuretics, etc.

Gynecomastia can look like swollen or enlarged breasts. Based on the appearance, it can be graded as:

• Grade 1:Enlarged nipples
• Grade 2: Enlarged with excess fat
• Grade 3: Enlarged nipples with excess fat and skin
• Grade 4: Full-grown breasts like females

Medications are one of the causes of gynecomastia. A diuretic drug (increases the production of urine) called furosemide can cause gynecomastia. When it is given in combination with digoxin (heart diseases drug), it increases the chances of enlarged breast tissues in males resulting in gynecomastia. Stopping or using an alternative for these medicines can help resolve the gynecomastia issues in men.

Gynecomastia can not cause infertility and vice versa. A decrease in testosterone hormone levels in males can lead to both infertility and gynecomastia. In such conditions, the underlying cause of low testosterone is diagnosed and treated. In the meantime, if needed, testosterone derivatives are prescribed by the doctor to treat the symptoms.

Gynecomastia is normal in cases of babies, boys going through puberty and men above 50 years of age. It is caused in adult males due to hormonal imbalance. Hormonal imbalance can be the result of:

• Medical conditions like tumor of testes, liver disease. hypogonadism, etc.
• Medications like steroids like Aldactone or diuretics like furosemide or heart disease medicine like digoxin.
• It can also be the result of weight gain, genetics and bodybuilding.
