Hej, förlåt om det var fel ställe att posta på visste inte riktigt vart jag skulle skriva.
Jag är 15 år och, jag har gynecomastia. Om några månader så kommer vi börja gå till badhuset med skolan och ha simlektioner. Jag vet inte riktigt vad jag ska göra, det är jätte jobbigt att ha gynecomastia. Jag kan inte skippa gympan, då jag kommer få ett F. Snälla hjälp mig, gynecomastia har påverkat mig jätte mycket, jag mår jätte dåligt.Medications for the treatment gynecomastia
Tamoxifen – a drug that blocks the action of the female hormone estrogen in the body. It is used for treating and preventing breast cancer, but is also effective in reducing the symptoms of breast pain and breast enlargement in men.Researchers at the university of California at Irvine carried out a study comparing tamoxifen with placebo for men with gynecomastia. They reported in the journal Metabolism6 that the majority of the participants (70%) on Tamoxifen experienced significant decrease in the size of their gynecomastia. All the patients with painful gynecomastia experienced symptomatic relief.
The study authors concluded ”…antiestrogenic treatment with tamoxifen may represent a safe and effective mode of treatment for selected cases of cosmetically disturbing or painful gynecomastia.”
Aromatase inhibitors – a class of drugs used for treating breast cancer and ovarian cancer in post-menopausal women. These medications may also be used off-label to prevent or treat gynecomastia in males.
A small study published in Hormone Research in Paediatrics7 on adolescent boys found that most of them experienced decreased breast size after receiving the selective aromatase inhibitor anastrozole. Since the aim of the treatment was the total disappearance of excess breast tissue, the researchers explained that anastrozole was of limited effect. Anastrozole may be of benefit for the treatment of tenderness, and also for those in whom surgery is particularly risky.
The study authors added ”However, as spontaneous disappearance of pubertal gynecomastia is common, further double-blinded, placebo-controlled trials are necessary before a definite conclusion can be drawn about the effectiveness and the side effects of this therapy.”
Testosterone replacement is sometimes used for the treatment of gynecomastia in elderly men whose testosterone levels are low. This treatment does not work if the patient’s testosterone level is normal.
Gör vad du vill med den informationen, vad det jag kunde hitta.
Annars får du låta bli att duscha och kanske använda någon sorts BH för att dölja brösten.Mvh
