How does male puberty breast development occur?


Restoring health, restoring hope.
Male pubertal breast development may be caused by hormonal changes, drug abuse, obesity, etc. Details are as follows:
1. Hormone changes
occur in men during puberty, including increases in androgen and estrogen levels. If estrogen is relatively increased or androgen is relatively decreased, it may lead to growth of male breast tissue.
2. Drug abuse Certain
drugs or drug abuse may lead to male breast development. For example, antipsychotics, corticosteroids, estrogen drugs, etc. may interfere with hormonal balance and lead to breast tissue development.
3. Obesity
Obesity is one of the common causes of male breast development. Obesity causes excessive fat deposition in the chest area, which in turn increases the appearance of the breast.
