Hey guys,
For the last few months my right nipple as been really itchy, dry, and even oozy due to the dryness it seems. Has anyone had a similar experience to this? It seems to have started right around the time I started taking Beta-alanine daily, but I highly doubt that attributed to it. Any suggestions? I haven't had time to go to the doctors for this but I guess that might be my last option.

Dude totally normal. Guys nipples are always dry and itchy, and I'll be damned if they're not oozing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Your in the beginning stages of gyno. I'd suggest taking care of this right away. Go see an endocrinologist.

What may have caused this? I have never taken any ph or test booster, just the typicaly pre workout and whey protein, and some bcaa's
what else have you taken, past and present? beta alanine would not cause this

I'm not sure. Sometime's your hormones can get out of whack naturally and for whatever reason is sounds like yours did. Some people can develop gyno without the use of AAS, ph's, test boosters, etc. I'd make sure you get this taken care of though cuz gyno is a pain in the ass big time.

Well it isn't usually oozy, only sometimes if I break the skin when it is dry. If I put a bit of lotion on it then it is fine for the rest of the day, and it isn't tender or lumpy which is why I didn't think it would be gyno. But anyway if it is, should I go to an endocrinologist right away or should I go to a regular doctor first?
guys' nipples can get puffy and secrete fluid due to stimulation alone. that is, it may be dry and itchy due to the weather, and if you constantly scratch at it, it can make it start to secrete fluid. i would leave it alone and if it doesn't go away after a couple weeks see a doc.

There isn't going to be a lump right away. It starts off by being itchy, and if it is oozing it sounds like its prolactin related. Something to do with the pituitary gland possibly. See an endrocinologist because a regular doctor will just point you to one anyway as they deal with hormone levels. Hope this helps.
Check with your insurance first about seeing a specialist. It is usually much cheaper if you are referred by a general physician. Plus they will probably do the bloodwork there so you will know what is going on quicker.

Yep I will hit up the doc today most likely. It's weird, some symptoms point towards gyno and others make it just look like some type of itchy dry rash, since there aren't any lumps and it isn't really senstive or anything. Also my nipples are pretty small to begin with so it is hardly noticeable.

If your nipple isnt puffy then it isn't gyno. Gyno symptoms DO NOT include dryness, lol. The beginning symptoms would be nipple sensitivity, odd nipple pains, a lump behind the actual nipple.

It is a little puffy but it seems my nipples have always been a bit puffy, nothing near what gyno should look like, but it also started to show near the end of my bulk when my BF was high as well. I am probably still at around 14-15% bf so it's hard to tell, I just know the dryness and skin-like infection kind of symptoms aren't normal and they seem different from gyno.
