How To Get Rid Of Man Boobs Permanently: Want A Longer Penis? Traction Beats Surgery, Say Researchers

How I Overcame My 50-Year Struggle With Gynecomastia

Before we get started, here's a little story from one of my clients, Sammie Fields.

Hey there I’m Sammie.

I’m in my 70s now and I’m finally enjoying my life as a masculine-looking guy. I struggled with gynecomastia ever since puberty. Back in the day it was totally unheard of for a man to have breasts.

Man boobs were quite a rare thing. If you think having man boobs is bad now, try having them in the 60s. I spent my entire life in fear that someone would notice my breasts. I stayed away from women - I was horrified of the bedroom. I also stayed away from the beach and only got out wearing the thickest of clothing to try and conceal myself.

Back then there was no internet, and no information out there to help me. I tried everything I could to try and get rid of my man boobs. I lost weight and tried different diets but all to no avail.

One day however, just a few years ago I came across a newspaper article.

This article complained of how male fish in our waters were becoming feminized. Scientists had studied these male fish and found how they had developed feminine characteristics, even to the point of producing eggs! Apparently this was due to the prevalence of the female hormone estrogen in our water supply.

Apparently, due to most government water filtration systems (including the US), estrogen passes unfiltered right into our taps, and straight into your belly when you drink that glass of water.

The estrogen is being absorbed by us and is resulting in modern man having low sperm counts, fertility problems and gynecomastia. Heck it might even be responsible for the boom in the male cosmetics industry (joke).

So I went out there, did some research and found some other shocking sources of estrogen that exist especially in the modern environment, but were also there in the past albeit in much lower quantities and not as widespread back in the day.

Why am I telling you all this?

Well I lost my man boobs in my mid-sixties. The only way I managed to succeed was after I armed myself with the facts, and all the information I needed to know about the very root cause of my gynecomastia.

If I could get rid of my gynecomastia in my sixties, then I know for a fact that anyone else can do it too. So if you're about to give up or you have given up and are ready to face the world as a pseudo-man, then I'm here to tell you to wake up! Get out of that trance, shake yourself up and inform yourself of real working tactics that have been proven time and time again to help many thousands of guys lose their man boobs permanently using all-natural methods.

And I can't think of a better person to help you than my good friend Robert Hull. I leave you to his very capable hands and I'm sure that you will learn much on his new blog.

Men who want surgery to increase the length of their penis should try non-invasive methods like penile traction devices or extenders first, and in some cases, even try therapy to make them feel more confident about their bodies, said Italian urologists in a paper published in the April print issue of the British Journal of Urology International.

Marco Orderda and Paolo Gontero of the University of Turin carried out a research review and concluded that penile extenders were more effective than other non-invasive methods like vacuum devices, exercises and botox injections.

They also noted that surgery was not necessarily the perfect solution that some might assume it to be.

Gontero, an Associate urology Professor, told the media:

"Based on current evidence, we suggest that penile extenders, not surgery, should be the first-line treatment for men seeking a penile lengthening procedure."

"Surgery is characterised by a risk of complications and unwanted outcomes and lack of consensus among the medical profession on the indications for surgery and the techniques used. That is why a non-invasive technique is preferable," said Gontero.

In some cases, psychological satisfaction is often just as important as physical changes, Orderda and Gontero noted.

Gontero said urologists are often approached by men worried about the size of their penis, even though in most cases, the penis is of normal size.

But there are some conditions such as Peyronie's disease and congenital abnormalities that can leave a man with a shorter than normal penis, as can surgical procedures like radical prostatectomy for men with prostate cancer. Lack of skin due to chronic inflammation or aggressive circumcision can also make the penis appear smaller.

And another condition is "hidden penis", often seen in obese older men whose belly fat and skin overlies the penis.

According to most of the studies that they reviewed, a penis was considered normal if its length when flaccid was more than 4 cm, and when erect, was more than 7.5 cm, but this also depended on height and BMI. The length was measured along the dorsal or upper side.

Gontero said that no studies have yet compared surgical and non-invasive methods of increasing penis length.

"However our review suggests that penile extenders represent an effective and durable method of penile lengthening, capable of elongating the penis by an average of 1.8cm with minimal side effects. This compares favourably with surgery, which is much more invasive for the patient," he added.

Gontero and Oderda reviewed five evidence-based studies of penile surgery on a total of 121 men, and six evidence-based studies of non-surgical interventions covering a total of 109 men, 72 of whom used the penile extenders. All the studies were published between 2000 and 2009.

They found that surgical procedures resulted in average flaccid length increases of 1.3 to 2.5 cm, while studies of three types of penile extenders resulted in average flaccid length increases of 0.5 to 2.3 cm.

Penile extenders usually require the penis being in traction for several hours a day for several months, and the researchers wondered whether the gains were worth it.

A small number of the men who used penile extenders reported experiencing bruising, temporary discoloration, pain and itching.

One study that looked at the long term effects of repeated vacuum treatment in 37 men found no significant change in penis length after six months, although it reported a degree of psychological satisfaction for some men. One man reported experiencing numbness, and another man had a haematoma (blood under the tissue).

Another study they reviewed showed that botox may have a temporary effect in increasing flaccid length and decreasing penile retraction, while a further study suggested that using penoscrotal rings with an erectile dysfunction drug could help anxious men maintain an erection, but the reviewers could only find two case reports that measured how effective these devices were.

Ordeda and Gontero noted that despite the fact the idea appeals to a lot of men, and that it is widely discussed on the internet, probably because it is cheap and involves no invasive procedures, there is no evidence that exercises can help a man lengthen his penis.

Many men who feel their penis is too small are often surprised to discover that it is in the normal range. This means there is a role for therapy in helping these patients, said the reviewers, who recommended they try cognitive behavioral therapy to improve their perception of their body image.
