Getting Gyno Surgery in a month - Questions

Alright guys, so I just found out a couple days ago that I got approved to get gyno surgery, insurance is going to pay for it. They are paying for the REMOVAL of the gland, but not any liposuction of the fatty tissue build up. I was running some bunk BD gear so I'm stopping my cycle, it was really underdosed, and running a quick post cycle therapy (pct) so I can get the surgery, in about 4 weeks. I wanted to know:

After the gland is removed, will I be able to work off the fatty tissue myself without liposuction?

Will the gland removal make my nips not puffy anymore?

How long should I wait after having the gyno removed before cycling again?

The reason I got the gyno in the first place was primarly pubertal, but the lumps came from a couple of M1T cycles that I did when I was 18 without proper post cycle therapy (pct) protocols. Thanks guys.

(1)Yes ofcorse as they will not be attached to a gland. is simply lipo-tissus.

(2) No the body could not make an other gland. diet helathy way of life, work out, and you go right! right?

(3) If you don't smoke 1 months to work out and 6 month to cycle again.

Believe, i have seen and i have a long experience of that. as well if i never suffer of gyno i have seen dramtical case of gyno.

i have some pix... awesome.
 
good luck with your surgery man. When the time comes keep us updated on your recovery. I have always wondered what that surgery is like as far as discomfort and time before you can really hit the gym again.
 
it seems that they always tell you 1 month before you can resume all normal activities (like weightlifting). i'll just play it by ear. i'm probably going to go pay for a small lipo of the area myself after getting the gland removed, just because i want to be fully rid of it. and i imagine that JUST lipo will be a lot less expensive than me having to have paid for the entire surgery myself. sucks that the insurance wouldnt pick up the lipo but it is what it is. a lot of people get denied on gyno claims so i'm glad i could get something for free.
 
Maybe you can pay the doc a few hundred "under the table" to lipo some while he's in there :)

Please post "Before & After" Pics - This would be really informative to a lot of people out there. Like 1 week, 1 month and then 6 months after, that would be very cool.
 
I wouldnt even know if they did Lipo, as a general surgeon is going to be doing the procedure. He's done it multiple times so I'm not worried about his ability, but I'm having it done in an actual hospital and I don't know if they could even do that. I'll ask him haha.
 
will do. gotta ask about if theres anyway i can get lipo thrown into the deal. i'd be ecstatic if so.

absolutely, you don't want to get cut open too many times...you will have minor scarring around your nipples from the 1st surgery..
 
have you looked into "lipodissolve?" They're injections that melt away the fat..it kills the fat cells so it's gone for good..just like lipo suction, but better I think. Usually those clinics or spas offer them with a doctor that does the injections, but they charge you an arm and a leg...they tell you they want to do multiple treatments and you could end up paying $1500 to $3000. Or you could buy the shit on-line for a couple of hundred and do-it-yourself!
 
lucky insurance is paying for most of it, i never needed the lipo as i didnt have any fat there, but the bi-lateral excision ran me close to $4000, wish insurance woulda coverd me
 
At what point do you know when the gyno is too far to fix with Letro/Prami and when it's time to opt for the dam surgery? I hear so many people getting rid of the gyno themselves. Do you guys that are having these procedures done have actual man boobs or what? I just wonder as I have a small case of gyno starting myself.

Also, I hear having the whole gland removed can cause one to have concaved nipples which doesn't sound too dam appealing either. I guess someone with a little more experience can chime in here and give some advice as to if this is fact or fiction. Also, does once having the gland removed mean no more gyno ever? The rumor I hear is that a lot of pro bodybuilders have it done so they can take whatever the heck they want in the future without fear of gyno again. Not sure if this is fact or fiction either.

Nonetheless, good luck with your surgery and keep us posted as to your progress. I would be very interested to hear how the procedure goes in case I have to opt for it in the future. Like how big the scars are and if you get concaved nipples from it.
 
I had my lipo removed twice, 5 yrs apart, the first time my doc gave me a hard time about it, blah blah blah gear and so on, the second time i just kept saying ouch ouch before he would even touch me and scheduled me to see a gen surg the next day, its free here in canada, as long as it is not cosmetic, just winse and cry like a bitch worked for me, 10 yrs now and nothing has come back
 
can you describe the evolution of your gyno until today? how it started.. what you took.. etc

your gyno has gone too far once you've developed lumps that become hard over time. once they've gotten to that stage the gyno IS NOT going to go away. i don't care what people say, as i have tried high dosages of letro, prami, nolva, aromasin, every Aromatase inhibitor (AI) and anti-E under the sun. topicals, etc. if the gyno lump is there, it's there to stay.

Dead, thanks for the Lipodissolve info, I might check that out. Would be muuuuch cheaper than normal lipo, if my doc can't do it along with the gland extraction. I'm not trying to be cut open multiple times and I don't want a lot of downtime out of the gym. I'd like to be back in and cycling again ASAP.
 
In regards to Lipodissolve, check this out:

Lipodissolve: Under Scrutiny

Lipodissolve injections do liquefy fat, but where the fat goes is anyone's guess. Potentially it could be filtered through the liver, creating a fatty liver. Such excess fat in the liver can result in inflammation and possible scarring and liver failure.

The liquefied fat may also wind up in the blood vessels, where it could add to existing fatty plaque and increase the risk of heart attack or stroke.

Also, no studies have demonstrated where the medication travels or how it may affect organs. Nor does research exist on the optimal ingredients, proper dosages or short-term side effects. The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) reports that infection, disfiguring masses of inflamed tissue and tissue death can occur after lipodissolve, especially when the procedure is performed by laypeople. Buyer beware: Some plastic surgeons are seeing indentations and divets (depressions) in the skin of people who have undergone lipodissolve. Such defects can be extremely difficult to correct.

Lipodissolve should not be used in pregnant women, nursing mothers or obese individuals; or in people with diabetes, autoimmune diseases, vascular (blood vessel) complications or infections of any kind. It is not an appropriate treatment for large areas of fat.

you said a general surgeon is doing the procedure. do a bit of research and make it clear that it is important to you that you don't end up disfigured at a low bodyfat. While it may look good at 15% it may look bad at 8%. Make sure you have someone qualified and who has successfully done the procedure enough times. Most people (not bodybuilders) aren't going to have the same level of fussiness. Indentations, bumps etc may not be visible on your average fat ass.
 
A breast cancer surgeon is doing the procedure. He said that they are going to get rid of the majority of the fat around the area as well when they do the procedure, but not all of it because he does not want me to end up with inverted nips. I'm getting it done for free so im not complaining. I'll take pictures of course and let you guys know afterwards how to get the surgery paid for by insurance if anyone is interested.
