I also had issues with my weight increasing once I committed to taking my HIV drugs as prescribed. I also have been on some form of testerone therapy since I was told that my pain meds were robbing my testerone. I honestly think the man boobs thing is a part of growing older if you live a sedentary lifestyle because you begin to produce estrogen which could result in man boobs. I was lucky enough to gain control of my weight and testerone levels.Once my viral load became undetectable, testerone levels near normal the weight began to drop.Having a positive body image can be hard when you are so focused on staying healthy and the challenges of living with a chronic disease. I wish you well on your journey and I hope this helps.😀

I don't know your age, but try push -ups to help better define your chest. It may not help with the nipples but it will help masculinize your chest Although I haven't had much luck with my lower body fat, it has given me some control over the over-all shape of my body. Try googling up workouts for men of a certain age (over 35), that encourage more natural testosterone production.

Spironolactone is a testosterone blocker. They give it to trans women (male to female) when they transition. Why are you taking this? That's what's causing your female characteristics. FYI, I'm a medical laboratory scientist with a healthcare education.
