Hello, everyone!!! I've been gone for a while taking a break from NBE. I decided to come back in and try BO. So a few weeks ago I had my annual exam that detected a lump in my left breast which is my smaller one. So I went and head my ever first mammogram, with diagnostic testing and an ultrasound that proved I did have a mass of some sort. I am scheduled Monday for a core ultrasound biopsy to see if the mass is benign. I was doing some research about masses and found out that excessive estrogen produced during puberty can cause abnormal breast tissue to grow. So my thoughs are the only herb I was taking was PM for 3 months before I decided to quit it. I gained 10 pounds and incurred a lot of cellulite. My saliva tests came back that I am in pre menopause with very little estrogen. I took this test before starting pm. Do we really know exactly how these herbals work inside our body. If PM is suppose to produce estrogen which mine is low why would my body not use the estrogen in the right way?

I want to start BO next. But I need to wait for the results of the biopsy. So if I have this benign abnormal mass in my breast does that mean I should not do BO or any herbals for that reason. Does this make me more susceptible to cancer. I do have a family history of Breast Cancer on my moms side. I also have a breast cyst. My sisters have cyst too.

Currently I am using the non herbal formula Isosenuals cream.

Would love some feedback from all you great knowledgeable peeps.
Thanks so much I really appreciate your help.

Tinytots you make a good point about the Pm and estrogen. And agreed did you do a test after using PM to see if your levels rose?
I have a fear of BO given it makes your sex organs grown (correct me if im wrong) but would that not in turn make the benign cyst grow too?

Biggest question to the doctors once confirmed its benign is "will it stay that way?" if you took something that influences your hormones "can the cyst turn dangerous" ... then make your decision from there.

But yes again having read theres some very questionable PM out there it makes you wonder which ones are the dodgey ones and how would we ever know... We have to trust the suppliers and hope the PM we get is from the right region and has the health benefits we require from it
