Why Does a Boy Have a Large Chest?
If male breast development occurs in adulthood after puberty, it may be considered as a sign of testicular dysfunction, such as trauma-induced enlarged breasts in boys, which may also be caused by viral orchitis, chronic hepatitis, and renal failure. It is recommended to visit the endocrine department to rule out the underlying causes.

Why do some boys have enlarged breasts? Let's take a look at it below.
Male breast enlargement depends on the situation in different periods. If male breast development occurs during puberty and the external genitalia are normal, it is considered physiological and may be caused by obesity, Klinefelter syndrome, drugs, drug abuse, etc. If the external genitalia are abnormally developed, it is considered to be caused by insufficient synthesis of androgen resistance, mixed gonadal dysplasia, or even true hermaphroditism.
If male breast development occurs in adulthood after puberty, it is necessary to consider the decline of testicular function, such as trauma, viral orchitis, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, and renal failure. It is recommended to visit the endocrine department to rule out the causes. Most male breast enlargements are normal.
Renal failure is a pathological state in which partial or complete loss of renal function is caused by various chronic kidney diseases in the later stages. Renal failure can be divided into acute renal failure and chronic renal failure. Acute renal failure progresses rapidly and is usually caused by insufficient blood supply to the kidneys (such as trauma or burns), blockage of the kidneys due to certain factors resulting in functional impairment, or damage caused by toxins.
Chronic renal failure is mainly caused by long-term kidney disease. Over time and with the progression of the disease, the function of the kidneys gradually decreases, leading to the occurrence of renal failure.
