Gynecomastia / Breast man (or should I take the surgery)?

I had this problem for about two years and four months. I went see a specialist said he is not the relative weights, but hormone. He told me to take tamoxifen (used in women with cancer breast) and said that 80% of all patients, all I saw them remove the breast tissue. I was there for five months and there has been some improvement. I am unhappy that my parents brothers and sisters who have had this condition. The doctor says you can expect to be alone or surgery (can leave scars fade). I used to enjoy swimming, but was stopped because of the state, and people have always tease me. My mother said I should try surgery and my dad said he wait it out. What do you suggest? There are links to photos before and after publication.
