Even if the condition doesn't merit surgery, doctors are hoping that more men seek medical advice about treatment options instead of resigning themselves to a life lived with their shirts on. Talking about the problem, they say, is key. As Braunstein puts it, "Raising awareness of the condition—its causes, symptoms, treatments—will help more boys and men with gynecomastia be correctly diagnosed, and reassure them they are not alone."

    Bodybuilding can sometimes help a male grow breasts. It did for me. While I was lifting,my pectoral muscles did not want to grow. I had tried different ways of tyraining them. About two years after I stopped lifting,my breasts and nipples started to grow. As they grew,I wanted them larger. One thing led to another ,I am happy where I am now--41-29-40 and very happy!

    well i think that it is possible for men to develop breast from drinkin soy milk because of the estrogen level in the drink but at the same time... i dont think that there "boobs" will be as the same as a womans own...
