Yes, youve partially answered ur own question. It is due to an imbalance in the hormones estrogen and testosterone…referred to as “gynecomastia”. It usually presents in adolescence, 13, 14, 15, maybe younger. If the guy is obese, he should lose weight to reduce it. In children, it usually goes down as they grow throughout puberty. But for some others, it is a physical burden and can be quite emabarassing. Surgery might be the only option for such males. Other causes are steroid abuse, prescription or over the counter drugs, genetics, puberty, chronic liver disease, marijuana use, or even tumors.

Steroids in some cases and hormones in the rest because they have to much estergen in their bodies which causes all different kinds of problems such as boobs.
