Well, the Amazon dude arrived with my order of two sports type bras for my here-to-fore ignored man boobs. Now I thought there would be some sort of tingle I'd get from donning a bra, but no, it was just like putting on any other piece of clothing. It doesn't look much like the regular girly bras like my wife wears, but more like a half tank top. No lace. No frills. It's still a woman's bra but not really feminine at all.

However, the effect of securing the two little fellows and giving the tender nipples a break was amazing. Instant comfort and a better feeling of security. The one I have been wearing for three hours is very comfortable and supportive. There is not a hint of it's presence under a tee shirt and it has definitely cut the sharp profile of the breast although I still have the bulge. Now it's just a question of how much the wife giggles when I get undressed tonight for bed. Who know..... she may get a rise from it.

So if anyone else suffers from gynecomastia and doesn't want a very feminine looking undergarment, I can highly recommend trying this one - Hanes Women's SmoothTec ComfortFlex Fit Wireless Bra, Style G796.

That's a great suggestion. I've been wanting a new bra for a while and I'm going to order two of these ion Friday. Thanks for the heads up.

Re-reading this, I have to agree 10,000% with this statement.

OMG!!!! I love my sports bras my nipples would hurt so bad with out the bra and with it just some tingling. My wife cant wait to take hers off and makes fun of me cause in the beginning of hrt I would wear it to bed at night lol now I feel naked if I dont have one on

I ordered this bra today. Thank you for the suggestion. I found it funny that in the photo section of the Amazon reviews, one photo was from a man with Gynecomastia. That bra has a 4.5 rating and over 4,000 reviews. You picked, and shared, a good one. Thank you.

I have some bella low impact sports bras for general work/stairs/etc but I teach Martial ARts so I use a Jockey high impact sports bra for that, and THAT bra is amazing but a tad snug.

I'm only an A cup, halfway to B perhaps. But on TRT/OTC E my nipples are tender, gotta keep the girls firm when this happens.

I just ordered two of these also, an XL and an XXL. My measurements say 42B, but we'll see. Those straps seem too tight the few times i've tried these things on, and I've never found one that fit me. I'm still mentally struggling with the idea that "bras are for breasts, not for women". But workouts are uncomfortable with too much motion going on, and my nips are pretty visible in a t-shirt. We'll see what happens!

I bought 7 of these (https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/Generic-Fa ... 7FL36GGL7S) in beige, a few months ago.

Well I've been in my new bra for about five days now and really do find it comfortable. It especially helps my swollen nipples from chaffing and seems to flatten out my little boobs. My wife has stopped giggling at me and now even helps me get it on and off. I don't know how much bigger my man boobs will grow but until I start looking like Dolly Pardon really don't care much. Because I take no TRT I am still considering HRT with low dose estrogen for health reasons. I am reading more and more on the benefits of estrogen staving off osteoporosis and some articles even indicate an increased libido on higher doses. Of course if I choose that route my little fellows will probably grow even larger. We shall see....

Good luck getting an endocrinologist to help you I've been off testosterone for a month now and feel great but am having mind fog issues I just got a call back from the pa and he said no to estrogen and wanted to see me. I see him Thursday. I hope you have better luck getting your wish.

You need to order 6 more bras so you can have a fresh one every day. It would feel better because the fabric stretches as you wear them like underpants do. I wouldn't want to wear the same pair of underwear every day. It would get stinky and start to chafe me when I went a couple of days when I was driving semi truck and needed to do laundry

I'm seeing an endocrinologist shortly and hope she'll write a prescription for estradiol and hopefully also progesterone. The mind fog is real on low T and easily dealt with using estradiol. It might also resolve by itself given time, but don't count on it. There is no legitimate reason to deny this option to you. I'd rather not self-medicate, but will continue to do so if that's my only option.

In Ontario, where I live, hormones are available on informed consent. I told my doctor I wanted them and was referred to an endocrinologist. I had a chat with him about what I wanted and the health issues and was given the prescription.

arrived today. While it is very comfortable, the one I ordered is a little tight. I'm going to order another now. Thanks again for the heads up.

I wore this bra all day today. I stacked a truckload of firewood today and it was very comfortable. I'm starting to much appreciate wearing a bra everyday as tight t-shirts are not as comfortable as they used to be. Thanks, again.

Hey, mine arrived a couple days ago. As suspected, the XL was a bit too snug, but the 2XL fits pretty well. I tried a number of shirts on over it, and I don't see outlines of it under almost anything. The stretchy breast area seems to stabilize them good enough. I'm still wrapping my head around wearing this garment, though that is all it is. Guys wearing these has been so thoroughly mocked, derided, ridiculed, portrayed as unacceptably deviant in our culture, I'm struggling with it. Though of course I've been castrated, and that's way out of the mainstream too!

How do you know when you need a bra? I have over a handful.

Millions of men have gynecomastia and never wear a bra. My decision was based on the initial teasing from my wife and then her suggestion we buy one and try it. So in the end it's strictly up to you, for even if it's not an absolute necessity you may find it comfortable and supportive. Some guys get a sexual rush from it and some women do as well. Many men wear one to hide their man boobs in public. Other men wear a bra to actually accentuate their breast. There is no right or wrong, just do what you like.

I've been in a bra now for about a week and I think it's going to be a permanent part of my wardrobe, especially as I am anticipating more breast growth since beginning estrogen. I like it, my wife likes it and it really makes me feel comfortable.

For round $15 you can get a bra from Walmart or Amazon. Try the one I suggested earlier and see if you like it then go from there.

I've been growing boobs for about four years. I'm kinda stuck at a B-Cup now. I don't wear a bra every day. Certainly not through all my growing years. But I'm at the point where I have enough projection, that a t-shirt tucked in tight, has a flattening effect that is very uncomfortable over an nine hour work day. So, I wear one now a lot to keep from feeling this uncomfortable feeling all day.

Well, there is the Ann Landers pencil test (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pencil_test_(breasts)).
