Hi, so sad to tell you all that I am a large chested man myself because I have severe gender dysphoria and so my boobs get itchy alot. On consultation with a surgeon in a clinic in Mississauga, I came to know about the double incision mastectomy procedure ( ftmtopsurgery.ca/ftm-proced... ) which I think can be considered in my case. Being a man who has not undergone any surgeries before, I'm really afraid. Also, I don't know hoe to come out to my friends and family if I get it done. Desperately need your advise!

Sounds like you need ongoing support re coming out to friends and family. There are some good facebook support groups for trans men - for example you could join 'All transmen know each other' is good.
