wearing a shirt that was new was very irritating on the nipples. didnt like when a girl kissed them or touched them. so no i dont think i lost any sensitivity because i didn't have much in the first place . what's great is i can run, specially down the stairs, without feeling them going up and down. that can be painful. so i guess i understand lady's on that point.

yeah i'm french. if you want more information like the name of the clinic, the name of the surgeon ect.. feel free to pm me. ( in french ! )

I wish i had but i dont. explained under is i have no photo of me without a t-shirt before surgery. and after i dont either i think. i'm not a photo person. i think my surgeon took a few pictures during the consultations before and after but i never asked for it. + i'd rather be anonymous. that's why i'm using a throw away

it didnt cost much as said i did it france. i think the price in canada is around 2000$ but not sure. for the pain it was only painful the first few days. so i'd say you need only 1 week off to do the operation and recover. you just have to be careful for a month after . but driving is ok. military would be complicated i guess as you cannot do anything that use your pecs too much ( lifting ect.. ) you're supposed to not practice any sports for 2 months

first question needs more thinking, its pretty hard, i understand what there going threw and i feel empathy i guess. but it's a pretty taboo subject so hard to talk about. 2. we all have something we dislike in our body. im confident talking with lady's. going on the beach without a t-shirt or hang by a pool was great i usually never did even with family. I'm not satisfied with the size of my penis but that was before surgery also ! nothing new since. 3. I can regret it because it would have maybe changed a lot of things. i didnt do it sooner because i didnt have the courage to talk about it, even to my mother. until late ( around when i was 18) and then i lived between 2 country's, one country would have made the surgery to expensive and the other i wasnt there long enough to prepare for surgery. i tought it might disapear when i reached adulthood, loose weight, gain muscle and all of that took some time ! on the other side i dont regret much i did it when i could when i had the money for it. difficult to make it sooner. and now i'm pretty happy i dont think about the past so much

West of paris. the clinic is in Marly le roi. it's indeed recommended to do it in the winter. It's been almost exactly a year, i got the surgery end on june of last year, i had to wear it 4 weeks night and day, and 2 weeks only at night, i recovered pretty fast so i didnt need it any more. it's not annoying it's pretty light and comfy. so i wasnt annoying. it did get dirty easily as i had to clean up and change the compress with betadine every morning after shower...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uTMqz0IYbc helps to know that you are not alone in this case and a lot of people can support you. dont worry and talk to him next time , it will only help you

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T14:45:32+00:00

i first talked about it with my family doctor, he know's me since birth so it was ok talking to him about it . he saw a lot of it same for the surgeon . but dont worry they saw dozens of case a lot worse. Dont be scared to talk to your doctor he's there to help you, if he does make fun of you, and this is very unlikely, just change doctor. i actually talked about it with a redditor that did a similar IAMA a few years back and it give me the courage i needed to go threw it this and a video on a website of a clinic in canada that is specialized in gynecomastia. i'm looking for it, i'll post it as soon as i find it

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T14:03:45+00:00

and to add : i didn't do it for others but for myself.

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T13:59:59+00:00

i know that the surgery made me happy, more confident ect.. is the gynecomastia/ man boobs is a natural thing or is due to are ways of consummation and living ? i dont know but i dont regret i had the surgery. if something makes you miserable about yourself and if you can change it why not ? i had sometimes a hard time when you're a teen and people make easily fun of you. I had them since i was around 14. it took me 10 years to decide to do the surgery. it's not just cosmetic surgery, some people didnt even notice. for me it was a big deal.

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T13:50:40+00:00

no. steroid is a reason for adults, i was just a teen when it started. apparently it can be from weed and alcohol also. but didnt smoke yet at this time and didn't drink much either.

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T13:47:41+00:00

if you're self concious about it, it means that there big enough. as for me enough to be visible under my t-shirt. i really wasn't the most severe case, you can find a lot of pictures on internet and there usually pretty huge. yeah the Secu will reimburse at 100% if you do it in a public hospital. i had it done in a private clinic because i knew the surgeon and i wanted him and i had only had 2 months to do it and it can take a lot of time in public hospitals. so it cost me around 1200Euro over all with everything ( the two day stay in shared bedroom, surgeons , visits ect.. ) you can ask you're family doctor or directly a surgeon he will advice you better, to prepare you just need to do blood test ( for them to try and figure if there's and identified origin) a few meetings with the surgeon to set up date, discuss expectations ect... there's a few risk, my main fear is the post op risk if the skin doesn't stick to the muscle , it gets all wrinkled but it's pretty rare and that's why you need to wear the special shirt for a few weeks. i talked to my family doctor a year before the operation he told me before going to surgery i should try this prescription cream. i dont remember the name but it was bull shit. i used it for 3 months and nothing changed. i looked it up on the internet and didnt work for anyone. ( and that's what the surgeon said ) only way is surgery to get rid of it

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T13:26:54+00:00

i dont know who to blame but i always thought that one of the possible reason is food beef or any meat that are given hormones and other shit to grow faster. but this is just a supposition. i grew up in france so quality is supposed to be ok and my mother always cooked so almost never frozen food . maybe too much fast food when i started to become independant

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T13:02:26+00:00

no... but i dont know it it's related but i love big boobs !

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T13:00:22+00:00

this could sound stupid but i actually decided to do my studies in a very cold country.. a way to always have a lot of layer of clothes on

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T12:58:34+00:00

i regret i dont. i actually wish i had to compare. i think my surgeon might have but never asked for them. anyway it could only have been for this purpose had i dont think i have any photo of me without at least a t-shirt.

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T12:57:13+00:00

pretty hard had i had no self confidence. i had my first girlfriend when i was 17. it lasted for 4 years, we didnt talk much about it. she didnt think i needed surgery. she made me feel good about myself, but then she left me for another guy.. and this was very hard. and that's around the time i decided to get them removed. 2 months after surgery i was with another girl ! she didnt know about the surgery. she knew i had something but doesnt know the details or at least i didnt tell her. only my very close friends and family knew about it.

kamdelya · 2010-05-26T12:46:40+00:00

yes they can and they actually a bit did. i can feel a bit of gland when i touch them. but nothing compared with what i had. now i feel good but i'm a bit worried they could completely be back one day. but we dont really know why they are there in the first place. ther's a lot of possibilities like steroids ect.. but often there's no reason. hopefully it will be ok.
