has anyone tried ayurvedic medicine for gynecomastia? looking for natural options - #1981

Anonymously

I’ve developed mild gynecomastia, and while my doctor suggested surgery as an option, I’d prefer trying something natural first. I’ve read that certain Ayurvedic herbs like Guggul and Ashwagandha might help with reducing breast tissue. I want to know if it’s possible to treat gynecomastia with Ayurvedic medicines without invasive procedures. Has anyone successfully treated gynecomastia with Ayurveda? Which herbs or formulations did you use, and how long did it take to see any changes? I’d appreciate any advice on what worked and what didn’t.

Gynecomastia, the enlargement of breast tissue in men, can be managed with Ayurvedic remedies that aim to balance hormones, reduce fat accumulation, and promote healthy metabolism. While results can vary, some individuals have seen improvement using a combination of specific herbs and lifestyle adjustments. Ayurvedic Herbs and Formulations: Kanchanar Guggulu: This formulation helps reduce glandular tissue and targets abnormal growth. Dosage: 1-2 tablets twice daily after meals with warm water. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera): Helps balance hormones and reduce stress, which may contribute to gynecomastia. Dosage: 500 mg twice daily with milk or warm water. Additional Tips: Triphala Churna: Supports digestion and detoxification, aiding in overall weight management. Take 1 tsp with warm water before bed. Dietary Changes: Include high-fiber foods, avoid processed sugars and refined carbs, and consume cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli and cabbage) for their natural hormone-regulating properties. Regular Exercise: Focus on chest-targeted workouts and overall weight loss to reduce fat tissue. Note: Consistency is key with Ayurvedic treatments, and visible results may take 2-3 months. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized guidance.
