Gynecomastia and T dosage

[goga]

Even though I inject just 25mg EOD, I have a gyno (moderate) and I had been leaner before TRT. Does it mean that I still need to inject less? Does gyno=excess T dosage?
p.s. sensitive E2 test is not available here

You have clinically confirmed gyno, hard, pellet-like growth in the breasts? Or are you experiencing nipple sensitivity/itching and/or excess fat in and around the nipples?

I have excess fat in the breast.

I have excess fat in my breast.

I have excess fat in my breast.

All since the start of your TRT protocol? In and of itself, that is unlikely to be gyno. Not an impossibility, but unlikely.

As is explained here, the diagnosis is a multifaceted and complex issue.

How to Avoid Getting Gynecomastia

 

[antelopers]

To get gyno normally you have to be genetically predisposed. Fat accumulation around the breast is called pseudogynecomastia, not true gynecomastia which has a hard nodular gland growth. This could be due to an excess of estrogen or many other factors. If it is fat alone, you could likely lose it by reducing your overall body fat, or by decreasing dosage if estradiol is the problem.

 

[Nelson Vergel]

Low testosterone can increase fat or breast gland size. I would not be worried about TRT since it is one of the best ways to minimize gynecomastia or pseudogynecomastia (as antelopers said)
