Why some men grow big breasts

Gynaecomastia is a Greek word meaning “an increase in the amount of breast gland tissue in men and boys.” Studies show that gynaecomastia is present in 30-50 per cent of healthy men. Its occurrence is associated with an imbalance of hormones estrogen and testosterone. The condition can affect one or both breasts or even manifest unevenly. False or pseudo-gynaecomastia can occur in boys and men as excess fat on their chests and make them appear to have breasts. Real gynaecomastia however has true and pronounced breast tissues which cannot be minimised by normal fat burning exercises.
