Male Bra
__NOTOC__ A compression vest or gynecomastia vest is a specialized compression garment for men with gynecomastia, a condition characterized by the development of breast tissues in males.Cox, Therese Smith. (August 1, 2000) Charleston Daily Mail ''Men who develop breasts more numerous than people realize.'' Section: News; Page 1D. The estimates of those with the condition are presented as a range "because the definition of gynecomastia varies and the method of surveying varies." Although there are options for treating gynecomastia, some individuals opt to wear a breast compression garment as a non-surgical alternative for compressing the breast. Compared to bras, these vests typically flatten rather than lift. In sports, a wearable device called a GPS vest is often used by sporting clubs to evaluate players with real-time statistics. It contains a tracking device that detects heart rate, distance traveled, fatigue, and other statistics that a coach can use to evaluate a player. In ...

House Sitting
House sitting is the practice whereby a person leaving their house for a period of time entrusts it to one or more "house sitters", who by a mutual agreement are permitted to live or stay in the property temporarily, in exchange for assuming any combination of responsibilities. These can include taking care of the home owner's pets, performing general maintenance (including pools, lawns, air-conditioning systems, etc.), keeping trespassers off the property, readdressing the mail, and in general, making sure that everything runs smoothly, just as if the owner was at home. Benefits for the home/pet owner Pets are the reason for 82 percent of house-sitting arrangements, and for many people the cost of pet care during holidays is more than the cost of the vacation itself.

Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia (also spelled gynaecomastia) is the non-cancerous enlargement of one or both breasts in men due to the growth of breast tissue as a result of a hormone imbalance between estrogens and androgens. Updated by Brent Wisse (10 November 2018) Physically speaking, gynecomastia is completely benign, but it is associated with significant psychological distress, social stigma, and dysphoria. Gynecomastia can be normal in newborn male babies due to exposure to estrogen from the mother, in adolescent boys going through puberty, in older men over the age of 50, and in obese men. Most occurrences of gynecomastia do not require diagnostic tests. Gynecomastia may be caused by abnormal hormone changes, any condition that leads to an increase in the ratio of estrogens/androgens such as liver disease, kidney failure, thyroid disease and some non-breast tumors. Alcohol and some drugs can also cause breast enlargement. Other causes may include Klinefelter syndrome, metabolic dysf ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
