    gyno only affects fat men?

    after all i have read im wondering if its mainly fat men who get it, im not fat and never had a symptom of it no matter how much or how long ive been doing it...ive taken liquidex just in case on occassions when doing 400mgs a week,but not always, my nips and chest are just as tight as always, so with that said just for curiourosity what do you think? gyno mainly an over weight out of shape man problem? im 205 6 1' 46yrs...ive been on 200mgs a week for year and a half or more...

    True, but fat cells contribute greatly to excess estrogen which in turn can cause gyno or make it worse in those who are sensitive. I havnt had gyno issues at all, but I'm a bitchy bastard when my e2 gets too high,I guess everyone has different reactions to imbalances in hormones, excess weight could indeed be loosely linked to gyno but I don't think its even remotely accurate to say that gyno only effects overweight men.

    There are a number of factors required for gyno. E2 is only one. IGF, prolactin, and receptors all play a part. The simplest way to stop gyno is to keep E2 down, but it is not the only factor required for gyno.
