Man boobs, lightly referred to as “moobs” these days, can be a real nuisance for any man trying to sport a well sculpted muscular chest.  This condition can be caused by a few things, first of which is the medical condition clinical gynecomastia or male breast enlargement.  This is generally a result of hormone imbalances like low testosterone or elevated estrogen.  The second cause of man boobs is excess fat that is stored in the chest.  This has led to an increase in the amount of men who seek surgical treatment to reduce the size of their breasts. In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the amount of male breast reduction surgeries increased by 6% in the year of 2011 alone.
