Scared, I need your medical help guys... What is this?

[NixLifter]

Hey guys, I haven't been on here much at all lately because I just got married and have been going to school every night after work. But I am having a problem with something and I need YOUR expert advice. I like to think I know what I am talking about, but I am a little stumped here. Here is what is going on...

I have not worked out in 6-8 months, have not done a cycle of ANYTHING in 1 year and have lost about 30 pounds in the past 8 months or so.

With that said, about 2 weeks ago, I felt a hard knot behind my left nipple that has never been there before. Well, it was sore but I just thought that maybe I had a testosterone peak or surge or something that may have caused a little bit of gyno. Well, since then, it has gotten much larger and is now hurting bad. I have had a small problem with gyno in the past, but nothing this bad. And the thing is, I was able to find out that I get gyno from prolactin type substances (deca, tren and even d-bol), but like I said earlier, I have not done ANY gear in a year. Why would this flare up now and why this bad?

I have never had it this bad, and it is usually on both sides, not just one. Do you think this is just gyno (if so, can you explain how/why it is coming up now) and I should just order some Letro, Nolva or Arimidex to take care of it or do you think this is something else that I should get checked out and maybe get a mamogram?

Thank you guys,
NixLifter

considering you haven't used anything, and its on one side, best see a trained medical professional. it could be nothing maybe a benign growth, but in that off chance that it was serious at least you would know early and early detection of any problem is best.

get it checked

Little known fact, 10% of breast cancer deaths in america are men, dont' be to proud to have it checked, may not be anything but don't chance it! Not trying to scare you,just get it checked!

go to a doctor asap. men do get breast cancer - my father had it. survivor, thankfully, going on 7 or 8 years i believe. he had stage II, almost stage III also...

but if yours has grown so much in so little time, then i don't think it's cancerous. but you need to go to a doctor man!

 

[olded]

Man, get it checked this way you know what your dealing with. Listed to the guys, they know what they are talking about. Be honest with the Dr. Hey you just got married I;m sure the wife is worried. Good luck keep us posted.

 

[totalrecomp]

Doctor for sure. Keep us posted, hopefully it is just gyno(really never thought I would ever type such a statement but considering the circumstances.)

Here are the three options you have... I would get it checked but you can go get some novedex xt or formadrol (something otc) if you would like to get quick results rather than ordering some letro or whatever and having to wait... If you do order the latter, nicotine gum has anti-e effects if you choose to try that while you wait. Third is go to your doctor first, let him tell you whats going on, and get him to treat you.

What supplements are you taking? Whats your age? What's your diet like?

These things are just some of what could cause gyno, and it seems you are prone to it. The physician will be able to have an idea about what it is after an assessment and a few blood tests. Don't get too concerned about breast cancer just yet, but do go get it checked out even if the doesnt problem persist after using anti-e's. If breast cancer doesn't run in your family there's even less of a concern (male or female)...

What else are you taking? Acid blockers like pepcid, tagament, Ranitadine, cause gyno. Any dht blocker that you may be taking to keep your hair from thinning causes it along with some anti-depressants.

 

[rocco-x]

cut and dry go to a doctor.it may very well be a small cyst but why take a chance.

 

[pesty4077]

AAS is not the only thing that causes Gyno. In men, some develop it do to hormonal imbalance. I have gotten it before without being on a cycle. I would go to the Doctor as advised, but someone who specializes in HRT.

 

[Kaladryn]

After being on for about four years, and coming off, my endocrinologist subsequently diagnosed me with "hyper-active aromatase." I was making normal levels of testosterone, it was just being converted to E2 too quickly.

In your case this would fit, after being off for so long, your test levels start to come back to normal, and your estradiol goes through the roof.

I do however agree with people saying you should see a specialist to be safe.

 

[NixLifter]

great guys, thanks for all the support! I am going to call the MD tomorrow and I will keep you updated.

again, i appreciate and i really thank you for the responses!

First, go to the Dr. Second, if you have insurance and this gets checked out as a tumor that would be covered this might be a good time to get the Gyno fixed by having it removed. For the record I had one of the worst flare ups of Gyno while I was off cycle for several months. Good luck.

 

[jm425]

It maybe a tumor or cyst. Whether it's benign or malignant, it would be best to get it removed anyways since it is behind your nipple. Good luck man and I wish you the best.
