[QUOTE="Sides, post: 153012, member: 31749"] With all due respect, gyno only occurs when guys go on PCT? I'm sure you would agree there are a lot of different reasons why men get gyno, mostly involving changes in the androgen/estrogen ratio (and IGF1 is involved as well.) And many men get gyno for a variety of different reasons. "Physiologic gynecomastia has a trimodal age distribution, with incidence peaking in newborns, adolescents, and men older than 50 years. Up to 90 percent of newborn boys have palpable breast tissue secondary to transplacental transfer of maternal estrogens.[URL='https://www.aafp.org/afp/2012/0401/p716.html#afp20120401p716-b2']2[/URL] Newborn gynecomastia, although concerning to parents, usually resolves spontaneously within four weeks of birth. Children with symptoms that persist after their first birthday should be examined further; they may be at risk of persistent pubertal gynecomastia. One-half of adolescent males will experience gynecomastia, with typical onset at 13 to 14 years of age, or Tanner stage 3 or 4.[URL='https://www.aafp.org/afp/2012/0401/p716.html#afp20120401p716-b3']3[/URL],[URL='https://www.aafp.org/afp/2012/0401/p716.html#afp20120401p716-b4']4[/URL] An increase in estradiol concentration, lagging free testosterone production, and increased tissue sensitivity to normal male levels of estrogen are possible causes of gynecomastia in adolescents.[URL='https://www.aafp.org/afp/2012/0401/p716.html#afp20120401p716-b5']5[/URL]–[URL='https://www.aafp.org/afp/2012/0401/p716.html#afp20120401p716-b7']7[/URL] Adolescents may also experience nonphysiologic gynecomastia as the result of substance, supplement, or medication use, or from the unmasking of genetic conditions with delay of expected pubertal development.
