Well, if you're fat (like I was), adipose tissue aromatizes more testosterone to estrogen and you get gynocomastia (breast tissue growth). Also, because your body uses estrogen receptors to regulate testosterone levels, higher estrogen levels causes LH and FSH levels to drop, so you produce less testosterone.
I am very fat. My moobs are absolutely my least favorite part of that (visually anyway). A decade or so ago, I read on Reddit that one can get fluid drained to reduce the size of man boobs, regardless of physical fitness.
I want to get this done but feel stupid asking to be put under for a purely vanity matter.
Go figure, I like my moobs. I like fat women, too, so that probably has something to do with it.
Good for you for body positivity!
