Hey guys, I am going to post some pics and want to get some advice from you about what I should do concerning my gyno. Basically, I've done 3 cycles, and in effect, developed gyno in my right breast. I've been out of the gym for a while now, and lost a lot of size and gained some bodyfat (so I don't look that great in the pics). None of that really concerns me. I want to focus on the gyno right now. I went to the doctor and definitely confirmed that it is gyno. He gave me 2 options. I can either take anti-inflammatories for about 6 weeks and see if the swelling goes down, or I can have surgery. He explained the entire procedure to me and told me that if I did the surgery, I would end up with a scar under my right pec, and I risk it ending up a little smaller than the left pec. From what I've read, taking liquidex or any other anti-e's at this point is basically pointless. I also do not believe that the 6 weeks of anti-inflammatories will make any difference either. I have not been on any steroids in quite some time and I think that if any swelling was going to go down, it would have already done so. However, I would like second opinions. Some of my friends say I look fine without a shirt on and don't need to do anything about it. I had them look at the pictures and they say you notice it a LOT more in the pictures, but in real life they really don't notice it at all. For some reason the pictures bring it out more according to them. They said if I hadn't told them I had gyno, they would never have known from just looking at me. I definitely notice it, but of course I'm going to notice every little detail wrong with myself.

Questions:
1. What do you guys think? Do you think it's worth doing the surgery and risk having my right pec end up smaller than the left one?
2. Is there any point in running the anti-inflammatories for 6 weeks?
3. Once I start working out again and increasing my chest size, will the gyno be less noticeable? (If so, would they begin to look more the same enough to warrant not doing the surgery?)
4. Since I am kind of flabby right now, should I hit the gym hard, increase my muscle size, and drop some fat, and wait and see if it starts to look better before making the decision to get it cut out?
Thanks for taking the time to read this, and if you've looked at the pics and can answer any of my questions or have some comments of your own, I'd greatly appreciate it.
