Children’s health: gynecomastia

        CHILDREN’S HEALTH: GYNECOMASTIA

Symptom:
Development of breasts in a boy

Home care:
Reassure the child that the condition will disappear.
Try to spare the child embarrassing situations, such as undressing or showering in front of other children.
Be sure that the child is not subjected to teasing or taunting by other children.

Precautions
- Normal adolescent boys commonly develop small breasts that may persist for up to two years. It's only necessary to consult a doctor if the condition persists for an unusually long time.
- Parents should be aware of, and sympathetic towards, the embarrassment gynaecomastia can cause a boy.
- Overweight boys may develop accumulations of fat that resemble breasts but contain no true breast tissue.
- If the boy tries to conceal breast development because he's embarrassed, parents may not be aware of the condition.

Gynaecomastia is the name given to development of breasts in a boy. Normal males have undeveloped breast tissue that can become enlarged by oestrogens (female hormones) and, rarely, by androgens (male hormones). A boy with tumours of the testes or adrenal glands may develop breasts. Rarely, the breasts develop from mistakenly taking a medication that contains sex hormones or from eating poultry fattened by hormones.
Normal adolescent boys commonly develop small breasts on one or both side's. These persist for two to 24 months. They may be tender and are often an embarrassment. The breasts may become quite pronounced and remain so for years, but this is very rare. Overweight boys may develop large accumulations of fat that resemble breasts but contain no true breast tissue. This condition is known as pseudogynaecomastia.
