胸比女友大 25歲男求醫縮胸找尊嚴

生活中心╱台中報導 胸肌代表著力與美,但胸肌若變成「C Cup」,可就有損男子氣概。台中有一位25歲的小傑(化名),發現自己胸部竟比女友還大,感覺尊嚴受損而求助醫師;診斷之後才知是男性女乳症,在接受手術「縮胸」後,才又找回男性自尊。 男性女乳症向來令許多男性難以啟齒,近幾年來人數比例更有上升趨勢。整形醫師楊學穎表示,男性與女性的乳房構造上相同,但女性因為有雌激素的刺激,才讓乳房隆起明顯;而有「大奶奶」困擾的男性之中,青少年更容易有此煩惱。 楊學穎解釋,其實「男性女乳」並不是疾病,只能算是一種症狀,其背後成因受到多重因素影響,主要導因於體內雌激素與雄性激素的變化,荷爾蒙失調,進而造成乳房組織的增生;一般而言,男性在3個時期最容易發生,分別是新生兒、青春期及老年期(約65歲以後),不過像是藥物、腫瘤、甲狀腺疾病及肝硬化等等其他因素,也都有可能影響荷爾蒙分泌。 對於男性女乳症的治療方式,近幾年醫療技術已有改良。楊學穎指出,除了部份患者因乳房組織過多造成下垂,可能需要二次手術切除多餘皮膚外,大多能以抽脂方式來改善外觀;隨著脂肪移植技術進步,也有患者將抽出的脂肪回填到胸肌部位,藉此增加胸肌輪廓。 隨著國人飲食習慣、生活型態的改變,男性女乳症求診案例也越來越多。楊學穎醫師提醒,目前科技先進,面對這樣的窘境並非難題;除了選擇正規醫療機構,與醫師做詳細溝通及診治之外,需同時調整飲食方式、養成良好生活習慣,才能維持健康體態。

The country is hosting the World Cup in 2014, and the Olympics come 2016, and fashion, never to be outdone, is ready to make its own handover.
