Tengo problemas con el aumento de peso y con los senos masculinos. Desde que tomé medicamentos contra el VIH durante los últimos 3 años, he ganado 65 libras. Parte del problema fue mi presión arterial alta y los medicamentos (espirolactona) que usé para finalmente controlar mi presión arterial. No estoy seguro de si fue exclusivamente el medicamento para la presión arterial o también los medicamentos antivirales lo que mató mis niveles de testosterona y también me hizo subir de peso.

I'm having problems with weight gain and getting man boobs. Since being on HIV medications for the past 3 years I have gained 65 pounds. Part of the problem was my high blood pressure and the medications (spirolactone) used to finally get my blood pressure under control.

@Un miembro de myHIVteam I had success with intermittent fasting. I started this past October. I do all of my eating in 8 to 5 hours a day. It's great for removing fat if your consistent.
I don't know your age, but try push -ups to help better define your chest.

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.
