Later I found out that a general surgeon's objective is to go in, extract the mass, and hog tie you closed. How you look is not the primary concern. Insurance did NOT cover this procedure being that gynocomastia is a benign tumor. It doesn't need to come out, and therefore, was not covered. My second surgery was on the other side, by a plastic surgeon. I was honest with him as to why I "probably" got gyno. He was so conservative that I ended up back on his table 1 year later. In his defense, I continued w/AAS during that year. It lies dormant to this day. As long as I avoid highly androgenic steroids, it will not grow.
I hope this helps all of you.
