Hormone Supplements for Gynecomastia: Effective Remedy or Risky Trend?

3 months ago

My friend advised using hormone balancing supplements to treat gynecomastia naturally. Are such over-the-counter remedies effective or safe? Could they lead to side effects or worsen the condition if not supervised by a doctor?

Be careful with hormone balancing supplements or natural remedies because many are not properly tested and could harm you or even make gynecomastia worse. Always talk to a doctor before trying any treatment. Only prescribed medicines under a doctor’s supervision have shown some benefit, but they work mainly in early stages.
