I just had gyno surgery after waiting close to a decade. Surgeon said he leaves a small piece of the gland for structural reasons.
Which of course means recurrence is always a risk. I developed gyno during puberty but I think it may have become slightly more pronounced on gear. I'm not sure if the actual gland increased in size or it was just pushed out further by larger chest muscles. I never went above 500mg testosterone and that was only for a brief time. Did my best to keep e2 in check.
I am very leery moving forward. Having developed gyno once it would seem that I am more prone to estrogenic side effects. My plan was to run no more than 300mg testosterone stacked with non aromatizing injectables/orals. I will use pharma aromasin as needed and 60mg of raloxifene ED as a preventative dose. This would only be during cycle. To be even extra cautious I think I should keep letrozole on hand.
My only problem is detecting the gyno. I originally developed this when I was 13 so I'm not as certain about what to feel for.
Also, I tried several times to shrink the glands with high dosage raloxifene to no avail. Is this because the gland was years old and calcified? If I was to develop new tissue, would it be more susceptible to reversal through drugs?
Thanks guys.
