More British men seeking breast reduction

Doctors say a record number of British men last year sought breast-reduction surgery for "man boobs" or "moobs," as some call them.

Breast-reduction surgery for men rose from 22 operations in 2003 to 224 operations last year, said the Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons in Britain.

More men concerned with their physique also are turning to anabolic steroids, with an estimated 179,000 men ages 16-59 having used them in Britain, The Daily Telegraph reported Saturday.
