Some males may develop a condition known as gynecomastia in their teen years or in adulthood, which can cause breast tissue to overdevelop due to hormonal imbalances, certain medications, steroids, or genetics. Its sister condition, pseudogynecomastia, is also very common in males but with a different cause. 

Pseudogynecomastia can cause feelings of body insecurity and loss of confidence. The good news is that there are specific lifestyle changes and body rejuvenation procedures available that can address enlarged male breasts.
