Ooh. That makes sense. I read that on a side effects list and thought it was interesting, but didn’t realize that was the mechanism of action.
I would suppose if someone grows breast tissue from using testosterone, then they should use less. (Which kind of means my original comment is a bit circular, or rather, the surgery would perhaps be unnecessary if the correct amounts/dosage were used.)
Aye, but if the dose of T is not too high (a person can need a certain level to feel healthy), their doctor can prescribe a Aromatase inhibitor instead (the enzyme which converts T -> E)
However, if they leave it too long (1yr+) and the tissue becomes fibrotic; then surgery is the only way to remove it. So your hypothetical has no doubt happened.
