Bodybuilders that take anabolic steroids such as androstenedione and testosterone often suffer from gynecomasty (enlarged breast
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Gynaecomastia occurs due to

1) Feedback inhibition of pituitary.

2) Conversion of exogenous androgens into estrogen (aromatization)

Substrate : Androgen

Product : Estradiol ( estrogen )

Enzyme involved : Aromatase

Explanation:

Gynaecomastia is a condition in which the mammary

glands, or breasts, enlarge and become sore and

tender to touch. It is due to the chemical change

in testosterone brought about by a process called

aromatisation, when the male hormone is converted

to a form of estrogen, the female sex hormone.

There is initially a sore feeling in the breast. A

skin ridge appears on the outer side of the areola

together with a halo appearance around the area

but no swelling. As the course continues, a swelling

develops and it becomes tender. Fatty tissue

builds up around the area and the breast becomes

prominent. At times there may be a secretion of

fluid from the nipple when it is squeezed. Steroids

should be stopped. If recovery does not occur by

the end of 2 months, surgery should be considered.

Other causes of gynaecomastia that may need to

be considered are the use of medications such as

Tagamet, a treatment for gastric problems, HCG and

spironolactone. Some body builders use this latter

drug to reduce body fluid. Occasionally boys in the

post-pubertal phase develop breast enlargement due

to endocrine imbalance totally unrelated to steroids.

Gynaecomastia also occurs as a result of feedback inhibition of the pituitary.
