High Estrogen Levels Could Be the Culprit Gynecomastia, which is excessive breast tissue growth in men, may be the result of abnormally high estrogen production in a man’s body. It might even happen as early as puberty when testicles are producing more estrogen than testosterone.
Very soon testicles increase the production of testosterone, and gynecomastia resolves. In older men excessive estrogen production may be the result of testosterone conversion to estrogen by enzyme aromatase in fat tissue.
Of course hormone-producing tumors should be ruled out and once it is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can be an option because it can treat hormone deficiencies.
