While these may be the side effects of chemotherapy, they may also be a subtle pointer towards drop in white blood cell counts specially if the patient is taking the chemotherapy on a weekly basis. The patient also needs good pain management.

Few advises from my side:
surgery is needed. But, please consult surgical oncologist for proper planning.
Surgery can be laparoscopic or open. Depends on the expertise of the surgeon. Proper handling of tissues is important. I prefer laparoscopic in most cases.
She needs to undergo genetic test to assess her risk profile for other cancers.

Gynaecomastia needs to be operated. It can be done under local anaesthesia very comfortably. Just go for it. If you still don't want surgery you can try tamoxifen tablets for 2 years which may prevent further growth but doesn't dissolve the existing lesion.

May be due to pubertal gynaecomastia. Better to see a breast surgeon if it is persistent. It usually resolves on its own. If persistent, they need to rule out secondary causes of the same, which include medications, liver problems, testicular tumors amongst a few. If none found, they may try antiestrogen like tamoxifen or danazole or surgery as the last resort.

Topiramate is an anti-epileptic drug, which can be used to treat various neurological disorders like migraine. Where neophedan contains tamoxifen citrate which is a nonsteroidal antiestrogen used to treat breast cancer. They do not belong to same class of drugs. Can you please mention why are you taking topiramate? By the way topiramate can never be substituted by neophedan.

Hello, Gynecomastia is a very common problem among men. It is a physiological aberration and not a disease per say. Most of the times it is idiopathic and there are no tests that are required to be done. Though some use tamoxifen it is not effective and has high recurrence. Surgery is the only effective treatment. It is a simple surgery involving liposuction and gland removal by very small incisions and almost invisible scars. It is a day care procedure and you can get back to work in 3 days.

Hello, gynecomastia is a very common problem in men. It's a aberration of normal development. Most of the times there is no underlying cause. You won't need any more investigation. Though some have taken oral tamoxifen the results are not good and tends to recur. Treatment is surgery where liposuction and gland excision is done. It's a day care procedure and you can get back to work in 3 days. It's a very satisfying procedure. Contact personally for more details.
