When it comes to <\/span>breast surgery, normally one <\/span>thinks of it as <\/span>women having an implant after mastectomy, an enlargement or a reduction. In the latter case, it is done mainly as a matter of personal comfort, especially by taking pressure off the spine, rather than aesthetics. <\/span><\/p>\n

For men, the situation can be rather different. Just as there are ideals about what a woman\u2019s breast should be like, so a man will ideally have fine pectoral muscles, accompanied by a six-pack. While not many will have a <\/span>physique like Cristiano Ronaldo<\/span><\/a>, they would at least n<\/span>o<\/span>t want to have a chest that doesn\u2019t look male at all.<\/span><\/p>\n

That, sadly, is how it is for many men. These are not real breasts in the sense of being mammary glands able to lactate and nurse a baby, although it is possible on very rare occasions for men to get breast cancer – albeit <\/span>only in one per cent of cases<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If their presence leaves you considering the possibility of <\/a><\/span>male breast reduction surgery in London<\/span>, it is important to know how and why they occur, as this can help you establish whether the surgical route is the best one for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Male breasts do not happen entirely by chance. <\/span>If you have put on a lot of weight, the chances are there will be excess fat there just as there may be on your belly and elsewhere around your body. However, there are a number of specific factors that can make man breasts more likely to form.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first of these is diet. This is not simply a case of eating too much of the wrong stuff, although that is a part of it. Some foods can do more than others to add extra fat in that area. <\/span><\/p>\n

Science <\/span>Behind<\/span> Sweat<\/span><\/a> lists ten of these. <\/span>Some of them may seem obvious, like sugar, alcohol, frozen meat, deep-fried foods and canned foods with all their additives. Dairy products are also on this list, but not just because of their fat content; they also contain oestrogen, which increases the growth of breast tissue. <\/span><\/p>\n

Others may come as a surprise. Shrimps have lots of protein and are usually fi<\/span>ne, but no<\/span>t if you have them too often. Soy contain<\/span>s a lot of oe<\/span>strogen<\/span>. Eggs contain a high level of fat and while fruit is normally good for you, beware the strawberry: it is a very sugary fruit, so having that with cream while watching Wimbledon on TV is double trouble, tradition or not.<\/span><\/p>\n

For some, a radical change in diet plus lots of exercise is the best way forward. But for others, there may be further issues involving your <\/span>hormonal balance.<\/span><\/p>\n

As stated above, the <\/span>balance of oestrogen and testosterone<\/span><\/a> is a key factor <\/span>and for some men. This is particularly true as men get older; once you pass 50, the levels of testosterone production dip, so extra oestrogen can have a swelling effect. Liver and kidney disease can also be a factor.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

For that reason, man breasts are not simply something that can always be fixed with diet and exercise. Surgery can help achieve what a hormonally-unbalanced body cannot.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
