Developed mild gynecomastia after on SSRI

Unread post by ihatelexapro444 »

And the suspected cause is a decrease in dopamine, which causes an increase in prolactin, but I've been off the drug for 5 months and I still have it slightly. What can I do to get rid of it before it becomes permanent? Maybe it already has, fuck this man.
At the same time, I'm on an antiretroviral, tenofovir disoproxil fumerate, and I believe this can also cause gynecomastia, but SSRI is more prevalent.

That's really unfortunate, it's sad in how many ways these drugs can fuck one up. Gyno is not permanent, it can be removed surgically.

Have you had hormone panel to confirm this?
