No man wants to have breasts and yet this is one condition that many men almost 40 per cent do end up having at some period in their life time. This condition of man boobs is the result of abnormal hormone influence and the ingestion of specific medicines and forbidden drugs.

The developmental issues are related to the imbalance of certain hormones due to which the production of estrogen increases and this can happen to any male at any age. It is thus not restricted to any adolescent undergoing this condition during his puberty.

The condition of man boobs is something men will not want to have. However, close to 40 per cent of men go through this condition at some stage in their life. Man boobs is caused by a combination of developmental and consumption of some medications and illegal drugs.

Strangely; medicines supposed to be curing diseases have become contributory elements for this condition. An example is the drug Efavirenz, which is useful for treating patients against the HIV virus. This medicine boosts the production of estrogen and the male patient starts developing boobs. There are some other medicines of this type that lead to the condition of man boobs.

Men taking steroids and other prohibited drugs also end up developing breasts. These drugs have been banned precisely for this reason but still have their patrons in body builders and athletes who go for such short cuts to boost stamina and performance.

Excess body weight or obesity is one more reason. Obesity results due to lack of movement and a very sedentary life style coupled with bad eating habits. It has been proved that when the diet is balanced and there is enough body movement through walking or jogging, you cannot get man boobs and do not have to rush to the doctor for any surgery.

Proper diet does not mean starving or eating very less. It means eating the right food that is rich in fiber and that which aids quick metabolic activity. Green teas and certain food supplements have been found to be very effective in this regard. Appropriate eating habits refer to the consumption of fiber, fluids and food supplements

There is no substitute for physical exercises and some gym routines done regularly will help get rid of excess fat from accumulating and leading to man boobs. Do visit the site http://www.manboobsguide.com/ for more information on this condition.
