Many men have gynecomastia, which has been known to be caused by the amount of hormones in today's foods and is one of the main contributing causes.. In the case of teenagers, the puberty process can lead to hormonal imbalances that can lead to breast growth. In older people, age itself, illnesses and medications can also lead to breast enlargement. There are also other reasons for this to happen.
But what to do in situations like this?
Surgery can be expensive, and you may have to wait for some time before it can be done - or depending on the patient's health, it might not be done at all. To prevent the breasts from swaying and even pain, there are special men's vests for gynecomastia. I never wore one, but I think it uncomfortable to wear because it has several hooks, despite the fact that it shapes the body in order to "reduce" the breasts.
A very sad and very wrong thing is the bullying practiced against teenagers who have gynecomastia. When he is not "advised" to wear a bra, there are those who presented them with one as a form of humiliation.
Of course, for bra lovers such as me, gynecomastia can even be fun - yes, it’s exciting to naturally fill a bra.
If you want a bra that shapes your breasts to "reduce them," one exists. We’re familiar with bras that can also make less look like more. If a bra is for breasts, why can't men who have breasts wear them? Why is this taboo?
If I had gynecomastia, I wouldn't mind wearing a bra - I find the bra more practical and more beautiful than the male model vests for gynecomastia. It is better to wear a bra than to be in pain or to have to close a lot of hooks.
Besides, I would be much happier to know that I have a beautiful bra under my clothes and not a monotonous vest. And I believe that many men who start wearing a bra might find out they like doing so.
It is important that we accept our body as it is - at least until we can leave it the way we want ...
We should not be concerned with what others think about us, although in some settings this is important. Wearing a bra because of gynecomastia cannot be a cause for shame for anyone; not everyone can or wants to have surgery.
I think that stores should be prepared to serve men who wear a bra, especially for gynecomastia. After all, bra is for breasts.
For those who suffer, it isn’t necessary to wear a pink lace-up push-up bra because of gynecomastia. A black bra, with a reducing effect, to "hide" your breasts and keep the bra hidden can help you. And for those of us that enjoy bras you can feel better with a more beautiful bra. After all, taking all the precautions, only you will know that you are wearing it under your clothes.
Do you have gynecomastia?
If you had gynecomastia, would you wear a bra?
Do you wear a bra even in public because of gynecomastia?
I'm curious about your answers.

I do not have gynecomastia. If I did have gynecomastia. Yes I would wear a bra every day. I wear a bra every day as it is even without gynecomastia. I Love wearing my bra's. It is like receiving an all day hugs.
I buy the shirts I wear a size or two bigger. I do errands and what I need to do with a bra on. To the best of my knowledge. I only know of one time where I heard some young lady say to her mom. "Mom that guy is wearing a bra". I did not allow it to bother me when they walked past me laughing. I still continue to wear my bra's in public. When I do buy bra's. I try to pair a matching panty to it. I Love wearing matching bra and panties.
I also love the bra hug!
I recently bought a black lace bralette with matching panties and when I put them on and looked at myself in the mirror I loved it!

Hi Dorothy, may I ask when did you start wearing bras in the public and how did you overcome the fear and reinforce your assertiveness. Thank you.
I really don't know the correct answer to the time line. I know it was after my second battle with cancer in 2012. I just more or less thought life is to short to care what others thought. I enjoy wearing a bra and I just started wearing them everyday all day long. I have loving and caring wife and close friends who love me for who I am. As my wife says about my wearing panties and bras. There only cloths. Wear them if it makes you happy.

I have gynecomastia and enjoy having my little a cup breasts. They are too small to require a bra but I can feel them bouncing around when I jog. They also offer a subtle contour under a knit shirt.
When first diagnosed, I initially freaked out and thought about hiding them. Then I had a cathartic moment where I suddenly embraced them and in a broader way embraced my femininity!
Thank you for your interesting article which brought me great joy!

I'm glad you liked my article.
This stimulates me more and more to write.
Sometimes I'm curious to know what it's like to have breasts and fill in a bra.

How long was it before you finally excepted your diagnosis? I struggle with what others think of me
I worried about how to cover up at the beach for a week or so then suddenly while on a bus this feeling came over me that it was cool to have breasts and from that point on I was just happy about it

Hi Alexandra, I am exactly the same.
I used to hate that I could not have the typical male chest. Then I started thinking about my options (should I get them removed or embrace them as a part of me) and started remembering times I got dressed up and how I felt and then started realising I like my breasts.
Now I just wish they were a little bigger

I have gynecomastia, I underwent hormone therapy for prostate cancer and I wasn't aware that this was a side effect when lowering testosterone levels until I looked in the mirror one day after a shower and noticed my breast were big and sagging, at first I was very unhappy about it because I used to workout and I had a great looking pecs but as I was coming out of denial about my femme desires I embraced having natural breast, my bra size is a 46ddd and I will be going out dressed for the first time this weekend and I'm going all natural! Except for the silicon breast push up pads I feel like this is a dream come true and some of the other side effects from my hormone therapy makes it easier for me to transition to more of a feminine girl.
I've had it since my early teens almost 60 years ago. I often wear a bra and love the fact that I can fill the cups naturally. Even though small compared to the rest of me I do not like breast forms and won't wear them. I think probably due to the nature of the physical demands of my past work they do not sag so I don't really need a bra for support. That's a good thing as I do love tops and dresses that are low cut with thin straps as well as halter tops and you can't wear a bra without straps showing or even bands if they are low cut in back. Also I love dresses that are sheer lace above the bust area and they look better without a bra as well. I've managed to find a few nice large band small cup bras. My favorite so far is the Carmen Liu white satin&lace bra I got a few months ago. She designed a bra just for the trans community. I'll be getting the same one in black soon. I also use a breast pump regularly. I don't know but think it may have added to my overall breast size even though they mostly just affect the nipples. I do like how using it has made my nipples more prominent and much more sensitive. Depending on the top they're visible even when wearing a sheer bra and I do like that.
No I don't have gynecomastia, and sometimes wear a bra under my male clothes as a form of underdressing.
At one time I would have been seriously embarrassed by having breasts showing, but now I've accepted myself much better I sometimes wish I had some so that I could gather some cleavage together.
Thank you for this interesting article.

I do have gynecomastia, and it was breast development (not long after heart surgery in 2012) which awakened the inner girl in me which had been suppressed all of my adult life. I love my bras, and am never without one, even in guy mode. I often add padding to bring my A-cups up to a B - which I consider adequate for casual Dressing. I do have forms, but only use them when Dressing for more formal occasions.

I haven't been officially diagnosed with Gynecomastia, but I feel I do have it. Growing up I was always teased about having breast and that I should wear a bra. This has continued throughout my life. I always wanted to wear bras more but I'm not ready to explain why I do to everyone. Society says only females should just like skirts. Why should they have all the fun.

Everyone who likes to wear a bra should have the right to wear it without suffering criticism and judgment.

I do have gynecomastia and do wear a bra, however, I can only wear one when it will be totally undetectable, per my wife. So, in the winter months, I live in Michigan, it is easy for me. But in the summer I just have to let the girls swing. A while back, my doctor thought I may have breast cancer and sent me for a mammogram, that was an experience.
