Daily Fluctuation in Nipple Appearance

[TR90125]

The title pretty much says it all. For a good part of the day my nipples look normal and then there are other times of the day they are puffy.

When I workout they tend to be more hard and erect and later in the day tend to get puffy. What really sucks is I am able to wear form fitting shirts since my gut is gone and I actually have a chest, but puffy nipples make my pecs look like man boobs.

If it helps, my body fat is around 18% (and dropping). My test runs around 1100-1200 and my E2 is between 14 and 20.

What's the story here?

What about when you were younger? Did you have puffy nipples in your teens? What's your BF like now? BTW how do you keep your E2 so low? What's protocol as of now?

I too have puffy nipples / borderline gyno since my teens, now 39. testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) so far has not increased or decreased this condition after 9 months on. Considered surgery when I was younger but now married with kids so don't much care anymore. Would be interested to hear though if anyone knows what causes this in your teens right around puberty.

I guess it depends on what you call puffy. I dont think ive ever had an issue but over the years depending on what I was doing, temp etc, they definitely change to a puffy apperance to a more hard look. If your talking puffy like more than an inch than yeah it may be issue. But look at your wifes or gf, they change all the time too.

I'm pretty sure my nipples were puffy as a kid rather than defined. My bodyfat is 18% and dropping and I have been hoping that as my BF continues to drop this problem will get better.

My protocol is

75 mg Test Cyp every 84 hours
600 IU's Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) every 84 hours
.25mg adex twice weekly in weeks 1 and 3, once weekly in weeks 2 and 4
DHEA
B complex
Vitamin D
Male Response supplement
Amrour Thyroid 60mg every day

I would also say I do not consider the puffiness to be extreme or gyno, but it is very noticeable under a t-shirt or other casual shirt and just doesn't seem very attractive to me.

I was doing 100mg test/.5 adex/250iu Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) every 84 hours and my T was 1400 and E2 was 90. I may try your dosages next and see what I come up with. I will be doing a new lab in 2 weeks, right now I'm on 150 E6D, 1mg day of shot and 500iu's x2 a week.

Anyhow, my BF% is about the same, but my nipples while they were puffy during my teens were not a bother for me when my BF was lower in my late teens early 20's, now while on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) they are usually hard and while I guess my body composition/chest makes my nipples more apparent under shirts (like you) I don't seem to mind, again since they are usually hard. I think though that as both you and I begin to lose more BF things will be tighter and they will not be as apparent.
