gynaecomastia

I know this has been mentioned before a million times but won't come up in search.

Is the only treatment for this surgery? I seem to remember someone mentioning that it wasn't treatable on the NHS. does anyone know if it would be covered by BUPA or would you just have to pay? and what region are we talking if you have to pay? anyone have personal experience of this?

PS can we not have the petty arguements about spelling please?

According to this surgery is in rare cases, medicine is most often used, so I presume it is available on the NHS.

if you think you have it are you best to go to a GP who can give you medicine to reduce it?
