At 16, experiencing changes in your chest, including the appearance of larger or more noticeable nipples, is often a normal part of puberty. This condition is sometimes called pseudo gynecomastia and can happen because of hormonal changes that temporarily cause the breast tissue to enlarge. It's usually common and often goes away as hormone levels stabilize.
Here are some steps to consider
In most cases, gynecomastia improves within a few months to a couple of years as you continue through puberty.
Exercise, especially chest exercises, and a balanced diet can help reduce fat in the chest area, which might help reduce the appearance.
If the condition is causing significant discomfort or persists for a long time, it might help to talk to a healthcare professional. They can check hormone levels and rule out any other issues if needed.
Some substances, like certain medications or supplements, can contribute to gynecomastia. Avoid any non-prescribed drugs or supplements without guidance from a doctor.
