male taking birth control for women?

So I recently started taking my sisters birth control (i like it ok). And I read that if a guy does he can develop breasts. Can this be reversible? Do they go away once I stop taking them? Any idea how long it will take for me to get them. I've taken one row so far. Im 16 turning 17.

    No, birth control pills will not make a male grow breasts. There is not that much estrogen in them, in fact some prescription birth control pills don't even have estrogen in them.

    I would not take med's that are not prescribed for you. You never know if they be good or bad unless you have your doctor's recommendation. If breeast growth is a side effect, I am certain that surgery would be the only alternative to rduce them.Not a pleasant experience, even for girls.
