In this study, we evaluate the optical properties of a colorful class of dyes and pigments that humans routinely encounter. Development of new imaging agents could offer improved early cancer detection during routine screening or help surgeons identify tumor margins for surgical resection. Heavy drinking and marijuana use are also thought to be triggers.Providing physicians with new imaging agents to help detect cancer with better sensitivity and specificity has the potential to significantly improve patient outcomes. Steroids, in particular, are linked to enlarged breast development in men due to their hormonal makeup. It is also believed that certain medications have links to gynecomastia: steroids, antibiotics, anti-anxiety drugs, heartburn treatment drugs, tricyclic antidepressants, and AIDS treatment drugs. This is a time of shifting hormones, too, and that is thought to play a role. In adults, breast enlargement usually arises in middle-aged and older men. Luckily for teenagers, once puberty ends so does their gynecomastia in the vast majority of cases. It’s a direct result of puberty, where estrogen and testosterone levels can be off the charts, leading to enlarged breasts, along with acne and other teenage issues. Three-quarters of all teenage boys have gynecomastia to some degree. The condition is common and well understood in teenage boys but is somewhat of a mystery in adult men. Gynecomastia, a word of Greek origin meaning “woman-like breasts,” can affect one or both breasts.
Most of those men never do anything about it or even suspect it of being a “condition.” But having enlarged breasts can really impact a man’s self-esteem. It’s surprising, but it’s believed that around half of all men suffer from some form of gynecomastia, or having enlarged breasts.
