[Eve M]

did taking 9,360 mg of fenugreek a day have any bad side effects or anything? I want to start ramping up my dose over the next couple of months and am wondering how much mg daily should I take. I don't want to take too much.

I am finally posting my program even though I am still on a detox break. Will resume soon.

Stats (before ever starting NBE)
age: 19 years old
weight: 115-120 lbs
height: 5'4"
underbust: 27-28 inches
bust circumference: 32-33 inches
bra size: 32A (UK size)

Never smoked, never drank.

Former program: started with a very low dose (didn't know better then) of wild yam casules. Shifted to saw palmetto, still very low dose, then changed to a supplement that had saw palmetto in it as the main ingredient. After using it for a long time, I shifted to Fenugreek, and upped the dosage of my pill intake to 2,440 mg. It was then that my growth hastened. After a few months, I switched to a cheaper brand of fenugreek capsules and gradually increased the dosage (I got a bit impatient). Before I stopped fro my break, I was taking fenugreek at a dosage of 9,360 mg. In a span of one year, I grew from an almost 32C to an almost 32D. Yay!

New stats (before starting my new program that I hope will produce faster results)
age: 22
weight: 110-112 lbs
height: 5'4"
underbust: 26-26.5 inches
bust circumference: 35 inches
bra size: almost a 32D (UK size)

I still don't smoke and drink but now I am exposed to cigarette smoke more often because over the past two years I met a lot of smokers who became my good friends. I have a feeling I need to stay as far away from them as possible, especially when they smoke, during the course of my NBE.

MY NEW PROGRAM

A.M. 520 mg fenugreek
520 mg saw palmetto
1,000 mg borage oil
1,000 mg alfalfa
300 mg maca
24 g soy protein powder

Lunchtime 1,040 mg fenugreek
1,040 mg saw palmetto

P.M. 520 mg fenugreek
520 mg saw palmetto
1,000 mg borage oil
1,000 mg alfalfa
300 mg maca
nettle tea from a 2,000 g teabag of nettle

Comments and suggestions are welcome, but I will give my program a try first for around three months before changing anything according to what you have to say because I already have all the supplies I need. LOL.

The best of luck to us all!

Wow, I've been away for the longest time! Sorry if I was not able to check this page, ladies. I know my replies are very late, but I hope I can still be of help!

Thanks, Baby2488! Well, I'm not yet quite a 32DD according to my favorite lingerie brand available here in my country. LOL. I got overexcited before. But I've grown since last time and I am now able to fill a small 32DD bra that I have been keeping in my closet. My favorite brand, however, is a bit bigger and I have every intent to fill that one up.

I remember when I was just starting and was sorely disappointed that I have not had any major growth three months into the program. There might have been some fullness, but I am not the most observant person in the world. What made things difficult was that I was alone in my NBE journey and there was nobody to correct me, encourage me, or guide me. But I did push through, even though I had no clue that NBE takes a long time. I was always telling myself to give it another go. That was three years ago.

I want my breasts to even out first before I update my photos page, but I seem to be not very successful at it. But then, I am a slow grower so I'll just have to wait some more and see. But I might post some photos even if my breasts did not yet even out. Hmm, let me think about it.

A very good thing to do before you start your NBE is to check your hormone balance so you can plan your routine accordingly. There's a thread for that in the Information for newcomers. I am a bit confused about my own hormone balance, but my program seems to be okay for me so I'm continuing it. I wish you the best of luck!

Hi, waterfall2089! The only negative effect of taking very high doses of fenugreek on me was that my savings ran out very quickly. Oh, and the salespeople at the natural foods store I buy my supplements from gave me funny looks whenever I raided their fenugreek supplies. LOL. Also, I grew slower when I was on fenugreek alone than when I went on a routine consisting of several herbs. But there were others who experienced nausea and vomiting with elevated doses, if I remember it right. I guess it's different for everybody. Try and see how much would be right for you. I wish you the best!

Hey, SW. Sorry for the late reply. I seldom visit this forum because I am a bit busy with my studies. Go ahead and copy whatever you think can help you. My program's not copyright protected. )

I started a regular massage routine just last January 3. I massage only my smaller breast so it could catch up faster with the bigger one. I use virgin coconut oil for the massage. It does not have phytoestrogens or other plant hormones, but I have read that it helps enhance thyroid function, increases metabolism, and helps with the repair and healing of tissues, so I thought it might help with the building of breast tissue (I'm crossing my fingers). If it does not, then it's just a massage oil that smells good, which is good enough for me. I'm going to observe for a few months if this method is okay. I've tried to use some kind of batter with borage oil, fenugreek, and olive oil before but I just can't take the smell. I still have a lot of it left, and I might use it again in the future.

Before I started a massage routine I only applied the coconut oil on my smaller breast. Then one day I noticed that the right bra strap of my bras, the strap for my smaller breast, became a bit tighter. I did not see any noticeable growth, but I think I did grow a bit judging from the tightness of the bra straps. I hope it continues.

I am going to compare notes with my sister on what works better. She is using a pueraria mirifica cream of a local brand, but she is too lazy to massage. I wanted to try the cream, too, but it did not indicate its pueraria mirifica concentration, so I'll see for myself first whether it works for my sister or not. For now, I'd just do massages because a lot of the forum members say massage is just as important as the herbs. I believe there were some wh grew with massage alone.

I wish you the best of luck!

Lena,

How long did it take you to go from an A cup to a D cup? I would love to go from an A to a D, but I am not sure exactly how long I should be expecting this change to take place. I am sorry if you have mentioned this before, but I cannot seem to find it on your programs page. Was it 3 years from start to finish?

Thanks and congrats on the amazing growth!

Hey, MariahsDs. Thanks. I understand. It's such a bother to read through everything on a thread sometimes. Yes, it took me almost three years. I think you can grow faster than that. I was not exactly making the most of my NBE program since I'm lazy. A part of the three years of my NBE I spent taking a single herb only (I started with wild yam, then saw palmetto, and then fenugreek), and during those times my growth was really slow. Also, I was too lazy to massage. When I started taking more than one herb, my growth increased slightly. I think it's because I'm really a slow grower. I also started massaging my smaller breast last January 3.

I just seen your pics I did not even realize that you were stilettos! Congrats again!

I am wondering what you have been doing from May 2008 until now because you seemed to even out really nicely. I have the same issue with having one breast smaller than the other I was hoping I could even out, eventually.

So what has your program been?

I know you said earlier you took only Fenugreek for one year and still grew. Then you added: Saw Palmetto, and Wild Yam. You also mentioned you did massages. What kind of massages did you do? Did you use any cream?

Thanks so much for your input and thanks for putting your pic up to give girls like me hope of one day achieving my goal of having bigger breasts.

So you went from an A to a DD? You are a DD now and in the last set of pics you posted?

Take care...

Lena,

Wow girl, you look great! Excellent job evening out the playing grounds! Lol. Man, I hope that mine can even out soon like that. I try to massage my smaller one alot more than the larger myself.

I also luv the fact that you went from an A cup to a DD. That's 4 sizes! Really gives me encouragement that 3 cup sizes are certainly achievable with time and effort. Call me impatient (or even unrealistic) but I really hope that it doesn't take me more than 5 months (which will be late April) to get to full C's. I might be a slow grower like you or it could be the season that's hampering the speed of my progress. I still didn't get my inch yet and it's been over 2 months. Was so close at one point but then AF came and took some of my pre-period progress. Dammit! Lol

Anyhow congrats on your results!! Sorry for the lil rant... ^_^;

The best of luck to us all!
