In the majority of instances, gynecomastia goes away on its own without any treatment. However, if gynecomastia results from an underlying ailment, such as hypogonadism, malnutrition, or cirrhosis, the underlying illness will need to be treated.

If gynecomastia doesn't get better itself or if it causes a lot of pain, tenderness, or psychological distress, you can get treatment from a specialist who will provide the best treatment for gynecomastia.

Even though there are specific non-surgical therapies for gynecomastia, surgery is sometimes the only option to fix the condition. Gynecomastia surgery offers complete, quick, and permanent removal of extra breast tissue and fat, and an enhancement in the shape of the chest.

Gynecomastia can be resolved through surgical and non-surgical corrective procedures.
Surgical correction of gynecomastia can be done through:
- Liposuction
- Mastectomy

Non-surgical procedures include:

- Off-label therapy, like the use of breast cancer medications.
- Prescription modification
- Testosterone replacement treatment through injections, skin gels, or patches.
- Treatment of underlying health problems like hyperthyroidism and malnutrition

In gynecomastia, the tissue of one or both breasts' glands can become enlarged and sensitive. In many cases, there is a development of lumps in an irregular pattern. This often starts as a lump or a thickening of the fatty tissue around the nipples.

You should contact a specialist immediately if you experience unusual or persistent swelling, pain, or nipple discharge.

Gynecomastia surgery often requires cutting through regions surrounding the nipple and removing excess breast tissue to restore a flatter surface. After this, the nipples are relocated. There may be a loss of sensation that lasts for many weeks following surgery. This improves with time.

The cost in India varies from INR 50,000 to INR 1,50,000, depending on the quantity of fat to be eliminated, the amount of sculpting required, the technology employed, and other fees, including the hospital for gynecomastia operation.
