How To Get Rid Of Man Boobs Permanently: Clinicians Need To Be Aware Of Surgical Risks From Obesity In Gynaecology

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.

Clinicians need to be aware of the problems associated with obesity and surgery says a new review published today in The Obstetrician & Gynaecologist (TOG).

As the overall incidence of obesity is on the rise, the risk of surgical complications also increases.

A BMI of more than 30 indicates obesity, however, the principal concern in surgical practice is for people with a BMI of more than 40 (morbid obesity), as this has additional risks in itself.

Many gynaecological conditions can be treated without surgery and weight loss alone will improve conditions such as stress incontinence.

Conservative therapies, such as bladder retraining and physiotherapy for urinary problems; and pessaries for prolapse, should readily be considered for women who are obese says the review.

If surgery is required, the review states that obese women should receive counselling about the increased risk of complications and technical difficulties that may be encountered.

In preparation for surgery, preoperative evaluation including a cardiovascular and respiratory history and relevant examination is needed. In each case, weight and height should be recorded and the BMI calculated and clearly documented in the notes.

The possible risks from surgery include: infection, bleeding, organ damage, thromboembolism and surgical difficulty. In addition there can be anaesthetic problems which include: airway and ventilation problems, nausea and issues with lifting and moving the patient. The review notes that induction of anaesthesia and preparation for surgery will take extra time.

The review recommends that all staff should undergo appropriate manual handling training. It also says that every operating table, trolley and bed should be labelled with its maximum weight capacity and that special hospital beds should be available that can accommodate the weight and enable movement of the patient.

During open surgery, obesity presents problems as there is an increased risk of wound infection and wound failure.

Departmental protocols and guidelines in the management of obese people are important, as is the adequate training of staff involved in their care.

Patrick Hogston, Consultant Gynaecologist, Queen Alexandra Hospital, Portsmouth, said:

"All gynaecologists involved in surgery for obese women should be aware of the potential problems involved.

"Individual units should have a clear pathway of care and guidelines for the management of obese women and doctors should discuss with the patient the benefits and risks of the procedure and involve her in decision making."

TOG's Editor -in-Chief, Jason Waugh said:

"Obesity is an increasing problem. It is essential that staff involved in treating obese patients are fully trained and that there are departmental protocols and guidelines in place to advise on the management of these patients."
