Hi ladies (and gentlemen),
This is my first time posting in the forum but I have been reading through a lot of your entries for some time now. I just wanted to share what has worked spectacularly for me.
I am not new to herbs as I have used them on and off for about 10+ years for health, vitality and overall balance. I already had a pretty extensive regimen of herbs going for non-NBE reasons before I decided to try NBE.
I used to have large, full breasts but a baby at 23, a miscarriage at 29 and lots of weight gained and lost over the years really took its toll. I seriously considered breast augmentation not because my boyfriend didn't find me attractive but because I just didn't like the look and feel of my breasts. It is a personal choice as all of you know and for me, I wanted to love my breasts again. Having experience with herbs, I was sure that there was something out there that could help me achieve this.
I started doing my research and saw references to fenugreek so I thought I'd give it a shot. I've learned in my self-experimenting with herbs that it is important to listen to your body and figured what better way to do this than try herbs for NBE. I had no idea my breasts would respond like they did and so quickly!
I started with 2 610mg whole herb capsules a day and also started taking 2 810 mg capsules of wild yam. I added 1 1000 capsule of EPO not just for NBE but overall female well-being but began showing the signs of hormonal imbalance - namely very jiggly belly and butt and insatiable hunger - so cut that out. I see wild yam is a bit controversial on this forum and others as to whether or not it is beneficial for NBE - I use it for metabolic regulation and virility, if it just so happens to be good for NBE then great! For the record, I usually take my herbs after a meal in the morning as I've had issues (read: barf) if I don't.
In just two weeks, I began to see striking results. The "growing pains" were so sharp that I was almost worried I was pregnant (as I started two weeks before I was "due"), the symptoms being very similar to and my breasts swelling like they have in previous pregnancies. But Aunt Flo came and went and my breasts continued to grow. I have been sending my boyfriend pictures every few days (we live about 100 miles apart and don't see each other constantly) and he has definitely noticed the difference too.
I used to be a 36C but after some weight loss (I dropped from about 190 to 165, which is an ideal weight for my frame), I was down to a very floppy 36B going into this. I accepted the smaller cup size and bought some good push ups but hated how they looked without the good bras. Now (about 3 weeks into it), I still fit well into a 36B but fill it out much better and feel confident to go braless without feeling like my nipples are touching my belly button.
I have added massage to my regimen, with cocoa butter and vitamin E. I'm not sure if this works (just started yesterday) but I know from my work with herbs that visualization and communication with your body CAN work miracles that modern medicine tries to convince us are not possible without medical intervention. It is not just about the effectiveness of the actual chemical reaction herbs or any other treatments have in your body but also the powerful influence your mind can have on the process.
Other supplements I take:
multivitamin (one-a-day for women)
Dong quai (2 weeks out of the month)
B-100 (mega B)
red raspberry leaf (the week after my period only)
yarrow (just at the end of my period and occasionally)
Fish oil (1200 x3 - good for brain, heart and apparently NBE!)
st Johns Wort
milk thistle
acidophilus
If you are really interested in taking the herbal path (beyond NBE), I recommend checking out the work of Susun Weed, who is an authority on herbs for women. Her site is here: http://www.susunweed.com/
I am not a professional and am self-taught in herbs but happy to share my own experiences if anyone has any questions. I will keep you all updated with my progress!
