The accessory Breast can be removed surgically if size is causing problems. Most likely you are suffering from mastalgia which is usually accompanied by fibrocystic disease. It is pain due to hormonal stimulation of the breast tissue. It may resolve spontaneously with pregnancy. Reassurance and supportive sports bra (especially in large breasts) have shown to be effective in most women. Usually Vitamin E 400 mg 2-3 capsule daily or/ and Evening Primrose Oil 2000-3000 mg daily Containing 240-360 ...more

Hello. Whether a patient receives chemotherapy or not in case of breast cancer will totally depend on the stage of disease at presentation to the doctor. If your doctor has prescribed chemotherapy, there are very good chances that it is mandatory. There are very few but well identified instances when chemotherapy is either not required or can be avoided safely or avoided in view of risk of side effects being more possible than the benefit. Other than stage, the things that influence this decisio...more

Hello sir. Definitely you can go for the surgery. The liposuction with gland excision gives you the best result for gynecomastia treatment. The surgeon will go for the surgery only after ruling out other underlying factors. It again depends upon the grade of gynecomastia you are having and the associated factors. Cost again depends upon the same factors. U can text me with the pictures to know anything more online.

Desmoid tumour or fibroma is a benign tumor, but with high chances of recurrence despite clear margins. The size of the mass, symptoms and respectability would determine the course of treatment. Surgery with clear margins is the main line of treatment. Reconstruction with primary closure or a flap if a large defect is advised.
If slowly growing and asymptomatic desmoid, especially if requires major and difficult resection, then observation may be advised. Some times in such large tumors, whe...more

I would like to know what hormonal therapy she is on. Diarrhea is seen with injectable fulvestrant, which is given as an monthly injection. It is not common with tamoxifen or Aromatase Inhibitors (letrozole, anastrazole or exemestane).
Also I presume that 12 value was of TSH, due to which she was declared as hypothyroid and on correction with thyroxine, it came down to 0.85
Try stopping the thyroxine tablets for a few days to see if the diarrhoea improves. There could be two reasons for ...more

Please see a breast surgeon. They would examine you and if needed do a mammogram or an ultrasound. The most common cause of breast lump in a male is gynaecomastia. It is usually pubertal in young males and it regresses spontaneously. If it doesnât then can be treated with tamoxifen. Rarely surgery with excision of tissue with liposuction may be used for the same.
It could also be due to hormonal imbalance between testosterone and estrogen or increased prolactin level. The cause of imbalanc...more

Gynecomastia in men:
Most cases of gynecomastia regress over time without treatment. However, if gynecomastia is caused by an underlying condition, such as hypogonadism, malnutrition or cirrhosis, that condition may need treatment. If you're taking medications that can cause gynecomastia, your doctor may recommend stopping them or substituting another medication.
In adolescents with no apparent cause of gynecomastia, the doctor may recommend periodic re-evaluations every three to six mon...more
