I've been dealing with irregular periods for about 7 years nowthey only happen every 6 or 7 months. In an ultrasound, they found out I have polycystic ovaries. I'm worried about how this might affect my health and future. Can you help me understand what's going on and what steps I should take?

I'm a 27-year-old guy from Hadapsar Pune dealing with gynecomastia where there's tissue buildup on my right chest and my nipples are swollen. I'm looking for advice on what to do about this and possible treatment options. I'm also concerned about how much surgery or other treatments might cost. Can you help me understand what steps I should take next?

For gynecomastia treatment, options like liposuction or gland excision may be necessary. Costs range between ‚Çπ50,000 to ‚Çπ1.5 lakh, depending on the procedure. Consult a plastic surgeon to determine the most appropriate course
