FBN Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Have this checked by a reliable surgeon. Breast lumps in males of 60yo need to be assessed the same as with a female breast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garret Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 It does need to be checked . However It is most likley nothing . All males have estrogen receptors in there breast tissue and it could be that your estrogen levels have elevated causing this.....It could also be that you are using some sort of testosteron supplement and your body is converting it to estrogen....Good Luck.
