Overview
- If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].
- Common complications of [disease name] include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
- Prognosis is generally excellent/good/poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#]%.
- Gynecomastia is a benign breast enlargement and the majority of adolescent gynecomastia resolved spontaneously. Persistent gynecomastia can cause psychosocial stresses and can be treated with surgical options with a good outcome.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- The signs and symtoms of gynecomastia typically develop in neonatal, pubertal age or in the elderly.[1] [2] [3]
- Without treatment gynecomastia has some associated risk of breast cancer, however, the majority of physiological gynecomastia resolves in months to years time.
Complications
Complications of gynecomastia include:
- Persistent pubertal gynecomastia
- Breast cancer[4]
- Psychological stresses like depression, reduced self-esteem and body dissatisfaction.[5] [6]
Prognosis
- Gynecomastia has an excellent prognosis and the majority of physiological gynecomastia resolve spontaneously.
- Secondary gynecomastia also responds well to treatment or removal of the underlying cause.
- Persistent gynecomastia can cause psychosocial stresses and has some associated risk of breast cancer.[7] [8] [9]
