Maybe you should see another doctor, a specialist that is. Do you have a teaching hospital in your location?visit one, and specifically demand to see a specialist, that way your fears may be squashed.

Gynecomastia is extremely common in boys around puberty but, like your doctor said, it usually disappears in a few years. Yours seem to be taking a bit longer to go but that doesn't mean it won't eventually.

My advice to you is to lose some weight and try and build up your muscles especially in those in the chest. Try doing bench presses and push-ups, that will make it less obvious in the short term. If the brea.sts keep growing, then you should see an endocrinologist.

Cheers.

Is there a growth on one side? It could be a harmless mass that needs removing.

Also, check out this informative article that makes reference to various natural olis that can cause gynecomastia as an unintended side effect.

Yes oneside is bigger than one but there is no side effect as in pain, or anything, is just emotional pain.

You may want to try a natural approach with gynexin pills. They are quite good in solving similar issues. Check out some Gynexin before and after pics to see how it works.
