or both breasts in men. It usually involves only the
nipple area and nearby tissue of one breast, but in some
cases the whole breast region may be enlarged to such a
degree that it takes on the appearance of female breasts.
Klinefelter
Syndrome

found in some men with an extra X chromosome. Every man
who exhibits symptoms of Klinefelter Syndrome has an
