Well if u like to see a doctor u can ask about these certain medications:Steroids, such as prednisone or Hexadrol.
Medications used to treat ulcers (such as cimetidine).
Medications used to treat epilepsy (such as phenytoin [Dilantin]).
Digitalis and other heart medications.
Chemotherapy drugs, especially alkylating agents, a family of anticancer drugs that interfere with cells' DNA and inhibit cancer cell growth.
Antiandrogen drugs (such as flutamide, cyproterone, and spironolactone).
Antianxiety and antidepressant medications (such as diazepam [Valium] and tricyclic antidepressants).
In adolescent boys, gynecomastia is caused by the hormonal changes of puberty. About one-third of 13- and 14-year-old boys are affected.
When gynecomastia occurs in adult males, it is usually caused by an underlying condition, such as liver or lung cancer, cirrhosis of the liver, overactive thyroid, or hormone problems, such as cancer of the pituitary gland, adrenal glands, or testicles. Alcohol, marijuana, methamphetamine, and heroin use also may cause gynecomastia

My brother, who is 57, has had gynecomastia ever since puberty. Yes, he does work out.
You may want to consult an endocrinologist.
I know my brother has Kleinfelter's Syndrome, which is quite rare. He never consulted the right doctor.
