Hey all have a mild case of gyno, absolutely hate this ****, never wear tshirts, bothered me for years. Question is, hypothetically could I go to meps, then have the surgery done before I shipped off to bootcamp?

gynecomastia (gyno). man boobs that are tissue, not fat essentially and puffy nips. have to be removed through surgery. im only 165, run/gym every week past 4 years, doc confirmed the condition. i wont let this plague me anymore. i promised myself id get it cut out before enlisting. guess i'll tell my recruiter and let him know the real reason i'm hesitant. i have to get this crap cut outta me. i know people will say "oh its not a big deal", maybe notfor you, but this has hindered my self esteem and self confidence for far too long

Nobody here can answer your hypothetical question. You need to ask your recruiter (that's what they're there for).

What T Top said - this is a question you'll need to ask your recruiter. And I learned my new medical condition for the week, not something I'd ever heard about before.

Good luck!
