Being a teenager can be tough.  Fitting in at school, impressing the opposite sex, keeping your parents happy are all thing the average teenager worries about.  Having teenage man boobs just makes things worse!  A small proportion of young men develop teenage man boobs around puberty and in the majority of cases they disappear of their own accord.  However if this does not happen it is wise to seek medical help or alternative measures to deal with the situation.

Surgery for man boobs in the teenager is a relatively minor procedure.  A small cut is made under the "boob" and the excess fat is extracted.  You are under general anaesthetic for roughly two hours and can be home on the same day.  Surgery should only really be considered as a last resort as any general anaesthetic carries risks of side effects.  There are also the cost implications to be taken into account too.

There are many medicines on the market today that will help a teenager with man boobs.  Some will require a prescription from your doctor and as with all drugs come with the risk of side effects but if carefully monitored and taken as per instruction could prove beneficial in a lot of cases.    There are also the wide range of natural or herbal remedies that are available.  These will often claim to be totally risk free but have been known to produce side effects just as the pharmaceutical kind do.  Whichever route you decide upon it is always wise to consult a medical practioner first.

Finally there is the diet and exercise route.  Many teenagers these days have a very unhealthy diet and the advent of computer games and the like has seen teenagers leading a much more sedentary lifestyle than in years gone by.  If you have a "couch potato" teenage son you should be encouraging him to get up and out much more and providing him with a healthy diet rich in fresh fruit and vegetables.  If he's not keen on going to the gym, get him to walk the dog or help Dad clean the car or mow the lawn.  An extra dollar or so in the allowance could be used as an incentive for these activities too.

If your son has teenage man boobs then the best thing for him is a comprehensive regime of diet and exercise that will tone his chest and make him feel manlier and a lot more confident.  Please visit www.men-in-mind.co.uk for more information.
