Gynecomastia is a condition in which men develop breast tissue that is larger than normal. The following are some of the causes of gynecomastia:

1. Hormonal imbalances: An imbalance in the levels of hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone, can cause gynecomastia. This can occur during puberty, as well as in older men due to age-related changes in hormone levels.
2. Medications: Certain medications can cause gynecomastia as a side effect. These include medications for high blood pressure, heart disease, and depression.
3. Substance abuse: Using certain substances, such as anabolic steroids, marijuana, and alcohol, can cause gynecomastia.
4. Health conditions: Some health conditions, such as liver or kidney disease, can cause hormonal imbalances that lead to gynecomastia.
5. Genetics: Gynecomastia can also be caused by genetic factors, although this is less common.

It is important to see a Best doctor for Gynecomastia treatment if you are experiencing symptoms of gynecomastia, as they can determine the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatment.
