Gynecomastia may occur in overweight males, because the excess fat is related to hormonal imbalances (sexual hormones are fat-type substances). I know at least one case of a male teenager with this condition.He should consult a doctor to find out if it is only excess fat or also mammary (glandular) tissue. If it is gynecomastia, he can undergo a relatively simple operation to remove this abnormal tissue.
