Please help me to make right decision, to reach to right solution? And recommend me what should I do and what shouldn't I do during gynecomastia?

Do not be tense ,this is not a disease so relax .Masturbation will not harm you in nay way. No, there are no known medications to reduce Adult Gynecomastia. SInce it is not a disease it is not necessary to remove it. For removal surgery is the only choice. Waiting till you are 18 -19 years, some times they may go away. If they are painful you may need medications. Wait till the age of 18-19 years, if it has to reduce it may if it has not already been there for long. If they do not resolve by 18-19 years and bother you cosmetically then you may want surgery.
