Gynecomastia,a male condition

I developed gynecomastia of my left breast. It's a benign enlargement with associated tenderness. I have been able to pinpoint it to my taking of amlodipine for a few years. After stopping amlodipine for 2 months the gynecomastia completely resolved. Has anyone had a similar side effect after being on amlodipine,a very popular medication for the treatment of hypertension?
