@shyamali Gynaecomastia can be caused by an imbalance between the sex hormones testosterone and oestrogen. Oestrogen causes breast tissue to grow. While all men produce some oestrogen, they usually have much higher levels of testosterone, which stops the oestrogen from causing breast tissue to grow.f a GP thinks you need treatment, they may recommend:
surgery to remove the excess breast tissue
medication to adjust a hormone imbalance
